Lack of places to eat - local barge restaurant was closed for 2 weeks when we arrived. Price was very high for what we got.

Stunning location. Bothy is small but clean. Toilets are a small walk away and accessed using a key. Facilities were clean and fucntional

It is basic (which I like) but I think the price is higher than it should be. That would put me off staying again.

The location is superb and it was great to park close by. The building itself is interesting and the wood stove makes it.

A few (mostly minor) issues. The glass in one of the double doors had shattered, and there was a piece of paper telling us not to touch or open that door - I would have expected this to have been fixed before we arrived. Even if it happened immediately before our arrival with no time to repair, I would have appreciated some communication. No curtain on the big glass door, so privacy an issue in terms of getting changed. Row of sockets behind the sink, and the dishes draining board on top of the fridge. The room could've been a bit cleaner. These issues didn't affect us too much, but for £165 a night I think they're worth mentioning.

Convenient bothy which was ideally suited for 3 people on a walking holiday. Nice location on the banks of Loch Lochy, overlooking the canal lock. Good shower.

Nice bothie in general-good facilities.

Bothy could use updating, lock on the internal door was tricky to use, at the bottom of the external door and window the wood has rotted, and there seemed to be flies getting inside somewhere. But these are relatively minor details, overall the bothy was comfortable and a nice stay.

Location and comfort of property were excellent. Ideal for walkers looking for a warm stay after hiking. Wood burning stove was great for keeping warm at night. Bunk beds were comfortable and we had no problem sleeping at night. Normally they do not accept same day booking but they made an exception as we had booked through booking.com

The bothy was very compact for our group of 3 (up to 4 accommodated), but reasonable facilities for the size. The remote shower and toilet were a little lacking, with what appears to be mould forming on the shower room walls. The locking and unlocking of the facilities was a bit of a pain, remembering to take a key for a pee. One toilet was out of action and both toilets were out of paper at one point - again an irritation.

Great location on the loch side with fantastic views fo the surrounding hills and water. Comfortable compact cabin in a quiet location. Having use of the Eagle Barge was amazing, essentially a pub eatery on the water - with friendly staff.

Lack of private bathroom

Pretty location and enjoyed watching the boats go through the Laggan Lock.

Amazing little place to stay! The pictures advertised do not do it justice. They got so much stuff into such a small space. We stayed in the bunk bed bothy, each bunk had its own light, plug and they'd even put in little shelves along the wall so you had space to put personal items. The pictures suggest there is no bedding/towels so we took sleeping bags and pillows etc but there was no need, all the beds were made up and towels were provided. In the bothy there was also a large sink, a stove, fridge, cutlery, mugs, glasses and washing up liquid and soap. There was also a log burner in the corner, I don't know how they squeezed it all in but it was amazing and didn't feel cramped at all. The toilet and shower were a short walk away and were very clean. A sensational stay!

The shower and toilet facilities are awful, walls are covered in mould and it stank. The actual shower was enclosed in tiling so that was ok

The bothy itself was lovely! Really clean and has its own running water which was a god send

Stayed in June 2023

The outside toilets but to be fair it is expected from a cabin like this. Also the log burner did not have a setting for smaller fire, I mean it pulls from the top even when you restrict the air from the bottom. ( I did not mind any of these things but I had to write it here on request of my GF.)

The proximity to all the places that we wanted to go. Very private place. There were also things we did not expect. Like the cuttlery, small cooker, fridge and plates.

Amazing place, Views around, lakes and mountains. Good location, close to Fort William and Fort Augustus, Loch Ness lake. Quiet peaceful place, cozy and clean inside bothies. There are all amenities such as kettle, dishes. Access to any other facilities. Pet-friendly place. Highly recommended 😊

No curtains on one of the big doors and there were a group of men camping directly opposite the glass doors which meant I could not get dressed or really be comfortable in the accommodation

Location perfect, directly on the Great Glen Way. Amazing (and free) fireplace which heated up the whole place wonderfully, comfy bed, kitchen was surprisingly well equipped (fridge, stove, sink, plates and cutlery). Just be absolutely aware there are no food sources anywhere nearby

Shower is barely a dribble and the water wasn’t very hot. As the toilet block and shower are in a separate building, it felt like a public toilet block rather than a £100 a night accommodation. The path to the toilet block is very steep with loose stones so easy to slip. The toilet seat isn’t secure and just one loo roll felt stingy. Worst of all was the fire alarm going off for nearly an hour just after we went to bed. We called the emergency number a few times and eventually it was answered. We were very grateful someone came out to get the alarm turned off. Not very private as people camping right near property and walking past. No curtains to draw on the doors. We tried to get dinner at the Eagle Barge nearby and it was packed and we didn’t feel welcome.

The bothy building itself was comfortable, clean and warm. We particularly liked the wood burning stove although it soon gets a bit hot in a small space. The kitchen area was well equipped for a small space with good fridge, cook plate and sink. Hot water almost on demand. Comfy bed and chair. We enjoyed watching boats go by and had a lovely walk along the Great Glen Way.
