Warm and Welcoming B & B / Self-Catering in Fort William

About Balcarres

Located in a peaceful, elevated position at the end of a cul-de-sac, Balcarres enjoys stunning views of Loch Linnhe and the Ardgour Hills, but is just a 15 minute stroll along the Loch to the Town Centre with its shops, bars and restaurants.

We are perfectly placed for enjoying all that the Highlands have to offer, be it sightseeing, walking, the local wildlife or adventure sports.

We look forward to welcoming you into our home and are more than happy to advise you on the many things to do and see in and around Fort William.
