Victoria House Bed and Breakfast

Fort William

Offering a garden and garden view, Victoria House Bed and Breakfast is situated in Fort William, 20 km from Loch Linnhe and 24 km from Glenfinnan Station Museum. The property features mountain and river views, and is 2.6 km from Glen Nevis. The homestay has parking on-site, a hot tub and luggage storage space. We had the suite for 4, and the rooms were very spacious. There was plenty of room to open suitcases. The shower was huge and everything was very modern. The hot tub was lovely, and the hostess Mandy was so welcoming and friendly. We got a bottle of wine as a welcome, which was very surprising and a very nice touch. The breakfast was very generous and laid out beautifully. For example, everyone got a cup of berries on top of everything else. We couldn't have been more satisfied with Victoria House!
