    Definitely exceeded our expectations. We had everything we needed. The house is very comfortable and cozy. Very stylish and very clean. After a long hike exactly what we needed. There is a kitchen and even a play room for the guests to use with the maps and consoles to play if the weather is not so great. Very quiet location with the nice lake view.

    Nothing I didn't like. Would like to suggest a small shelf in shower room next to small handwash basin to put a cup and toothbrushes on and for makeup items when using the mirror.

    Good facilities, Good clean kitchen. Staff friendly. Would return.

    I would have liked more facilities in the room rather than everything being communal and would suggest leaving the key code in the rooms to aid those of us who may not pay full attention...

    Great location, very spacious with very good quality facilities.

    We received a friendly welcome on arrival. Some useful local information is provided in the room. Nice clean, fresh room and en-suite shower room. Useful drying room and kitchen facilities available. Only a short walk to the town centre and local shops but might be a little steep for some! Very handy parking next to the property. Very nice views on a clear day.

    Black Sheep is an exceptional example of how budget accommodation should be, I love it!

    Yes, it is up a hill, but it is worth it! A make-up mirror in the bedroom would be helpful for when en-suite is in use. The only problem was that because it was so nice, I was almost tempted to sit in the garden all day deer-spotting, and didn't want to leave!

    I absolutely loved this delightful bijou accommodation, thoughtfully and beautifully designed and presented, spotlessly clean, fresh white walls with yellow/grey/white check pattern soft furnishings throughout, such attention to detail, even the communal kitchen mugs matched the décor! Large en-suite bathroom was modern and spotlessly clean, comfortable single bed and bunkbed with crisp. white linen and towels, perfect for 3 single adults on a budget. There is a fridge/microwave/oven/hob in the communal kitchen, with access to limitless complimentary tea/coffee (wonderful, thank you!), we were able to bring back ready meals to re-heat and sit at the kitchen table or patio table outside, with a view of the loch, we also saw red deer in the garden! Very friendly and helpful host. Black Sheep is an exceptional example of how budget accommodation should be, thank you so much!

    A bit up hill

    Looks like the property was refurbished not long ago so everything is extremely new and clean. Nice new bathroom facilities as well! Had a bit of hostel vibes as there is a big shared kitchen and relaxing area.

    The room would benefit from a full length mirror. The shower was small and didn’t have a soap stand, and a hand towel was not provided.

    Very modern place with a great view over the Loch. We were provided with great tips for dinner (Crannog Seafood) and breakie (Wildcat cafe). The staff was very friendly. Private parking is available on the property.

    The only thing I would say is it would be helpful if there was a brush and shovel in the kitchen cupboard to sweep up after us.

    Everything was excellent would recommend it to my friends.

    Can’t really complain about anything. Over exceeded expectations and great value for money. Basic beds but as expected for a bunkhouse. Still really clean and had everything we needed.

    Beautifully clean. Lovely bathroom, kitchen facilities and rest areas. Perfect location - short walk into the centre of Fort William. If you’re looking to save some money, you are welcome to order a takeaway to the bunkhouse and enjoy in the kitchen, snug or outside on the terrace overlooking the Loch. Gorgeous views of the Loch from the back garden. Really friendly host.

    A little bit away from the main centre - but still walkable.

    I’ve stayed in lots of bunkhouses and hostels. Most are old, tired, over priced and unclean. I thought this bunkhouse was absolutely great. Everything is well looked after, clean and friendly staff
