Brae Mhor Cottage

It’s our second stay at Brae Mhor and we’re already planning to come back again.

The views from the cottage are perfection, you couldn’t situate a home in a more scenic place. Perfect views of Ben Nevis, and this year we got six consecutive days of views unhindered by low lying cloud. We could t believe our luck. As for the cottage, it’s clean, spacious, and comfortable. We appreciated the new sofas from last time, much more comfortable. The beds are comfortable too, the only tiny niggle is the pillows aren’t. They were a bit hard and had lost some of their plumpness with them being hollow fibre. This is probably just a preference for us though, as we’re used to feather pillows. But it’s not a big deal at all. I did notice a small leak coming from under the dryer after I dried some wet clothes - quickly mopped it up but it might need a look at. Thankfully this year we had such amazing weather that I didn’t need to dry off our walking clothes more that one time. That almost never happens in Fort William! To sum up, lovely cottage, lovely location, and for the first time ever lovely weather!

We had a fantastic stay at Brae Mhor cottage for our first ever visit to Scotland and we struck gold.

A deceptively spacious cottage which was immaculately clean, very well presented to a high standard and very well equipped. The cottage is in such a lovely location, close enough to local amenities but far enough away from the town to offer isolation and perfect peace and quiet. The views from the cottage were breathtaking and the cottage is perfectly located to visit all the nearby attractions, walks and activities or to just take a drive and absorb all the spectacular scenery and unspoilt nature. We loved it so much we’ve already booked again for next year.

This was my third holiday at Brae Mhor.

That's three weeks and no doubt, there will be more. The cottage is lovely in presentation and comfort. It feels like you are far away from town but it's only a few minutes away. There are sheep all around and i love seeing the new lambs. The views are stunning and the cottage looks onto Ben Nevis etc. I always get a good sleep at Brae Mhor too. Be back soon.

Brae Mhor is a lovely warm and very comfortable house, set in a fantastic location.

Every window has a great view of the surrounding mountainsides and the skylights are perfect for star gazing, one of my favourite places to go and you never get tired of the postcard view of either Ben Nevis or a trip into Fort William and the vista that awaits your descent into the town from the road. Good for the soul and a peaceful retreat from the world.

Fabulous cottage in a stunning location.

The photos on the website don't do it justice! Very clean and well maintained, and the facilities were amazing - we couldn't have asked for more. The bottles of wine that were left for us were a nice touch too. This was our first visit to Brae Mhor and we are already booking our next one!

A perfect cottage in a beautiful setting .

It had everything you could need and more The cottage was well equipped and one of the best we’ve ever stayed in Very peaceful with stunning views

This excellently appointed property is set in beautiful, scenic hills and is the ideal place for enjoying a peaceful holiday.

What a lovely welcoming cottage in a quiet location at the foot of Ben Nevis.

We will certainly be revisiting this property again in the future, highly recommended.

Beautiful property and owner so very lovely.

We loved spending a couple of nights here. Would highly recommend!

What a fabulous place!

A real haven of peace and tranquility that feels more like home than home does. I could happily live there.

Property is in a very quiet location with excellent views, but within 10 minute drive into Fort William.

Excellent location for spotting wildlife, we saw from the cottage with a telescope: Red Deer and a Golden Eagle. There is plenty of room and equipment within the property, and to a high standard of decoration and cleanliness. Would definitely recommend

Beautiful place, excellent cottage.

Definitely want to return.

Stunning views out of every window - even the bathroom !

Quiet and peaceful glen up a single track road that only takes 10 mins driving from the roundabout in Fort William. Cannot fault the cottage in any way. Comfortable beds and plenty of room for our party of four. Thoroughly recommend to anyone who enjoys the quiet and wild nature of Scotland.

Honestly the most amazing week!

Fantastic views all around and facilities were spot on! So lovely and clean when we arrived, the house was perfect for the week.

A beautiful property with all the facilities you could need.

Was very clean upon arrival, the supplied games / books were great for the children. All the beds were incredibly comfortable which was needed after a days hiking. Loved the property and hope to return next year! Thank you

Outstanding property.

Our second stay lived up to the enjoyment of our first and we would certainly consider another visit at some point. If being out in the middle of nowhere with amazing scenery and the opportunity to go walking is your thing, then this must come near the top of the list. Very quiet, apart from sheep and birds. Be prepared for the unpredictable weather, as waterproof gear is essential, but if you are lucky, as we were this time, the surroundings are simply breathtaking.

An absolutely wonderful cottage!

I asked my wife to book somewhere for my 50th to get away from everything for a few days, and it fitted the bill perfectly. The cottage was immaculate when we arrived and the bottle of wine and box of celebrations was very kind and a lovely touch. Our 3 boys loved the place, the youngest aged 6 enjoyed getting up in the morning and watching the sheep from the small windows in the middle of the staircase. We had all the facilities we needed, though the views from all the windows were enough to keep us occupied. Thank you so much for making my 50th something that I will remember fondly forever.

First time in this property and quite sure it won't be our last.

You feel remote and yet amenities only three miles away. The cottage itself was a joy to stay in with everything you need, warm, comfortable and good quality bedding and linen. Its location is stunning and we never got over seeing Ben Nevis every day. Stunning!!

This cottage is amazing well furnished and very comfortable, the views are out of this world and we loved every minute of it.

We had to leave a day early for a prior engagement which really annoyed us, so I booked again for 2024. I would heartily recommend this beautiful cottage and the only thing I will do next year is bring an airfyer as both my partner and I tend to cook mostly that way, all the mod cons and a very beautiful location we love it.

Lovely property, well kept and the best yet we have stayed at near to Fort William.

The location being away from others is fab, but yet not far from the town for amenities is just what we were looking for. The style of the house is lovely with plenty of space, especially in the kitchen/diner when cooking and eating. Thank you for a lovely property ,home away from home.

Lovely cottage, welcoming and warm.

Highly recommend.

What an absolute gem of a house!

! We had such a great week and we were blessed with wall to wall sunshine! The house really is beautiful with everything you need, it’s very well equipped and the beds are so comfy, would we stay again…most definitely. My only real feedback to the owners is it would be good if there was a BBQ and additional outdoor seating with a parasol.

What a beautiful cottage and place to stay.

The cottage is very nicely decorated and very clean. My husband, myself and 3 children loved it. My 3 boys were most excited to stay here from our whole trip. We wished we could have stayed longer!

A fabulous cottage in a fabulous location with fabulous views.

It felt very roomy despite not being huge. Three really good sized bedrooms and a comfy lounge and kitchen-diner. All very clean and accommodating. Despite being down a single track road it's a very easy cottage to get to. The only oddity was a lack of basic kitchen supplies (no salt, pepper, oil, coffee filters). A minor point, and of course we managed fine, but just struck us as odd. Not that this prevented us from having a great holiday despite the weather!

This is a genuinely lovely house to which we would really hope to return for another holiday.

It is light and spacious, furnished to a high standard and extremely well equipped. The kitchen and utility have everything you could need and it is a real home from home. The views from every room are breathtaking. The bedrooms are a really good size with comfortable beds and good quality linen. The quality bathrooms are spacious with a choice of bath or shower and plenty of towels provided. The location is perfect as you have the feeling of being out in the hills but yet only a 10 minute drive from all the facilities of Fort William - you really cannot fault this house at all.

This is our second stay at this property.

It is a lovely cottage with beautiful views,Ben Nevis looks so close.It is well placed for Fort William,only a ten minute drive.A very peaceful location ,a cuckoo heard every day we were there,sheep up to the fence.We were lucky with wall to wall sunshine. The cottage is lovely,clean well maintained and provided for everything. The advantage for us is that one of our family has a mobility problem and the cottage has a large en-suite downstairs bedroom. The property is a good size overall .The upstairs bedrooms are lovely.The beds are a good size and comfortable. The two bottles of wine and flowers on arrival were much appreciated. Well recommended.

This was a fabulous little cottage and perfect for our needs.

The location and scenery was just amazing, and I would have no hesitation in recommending this property as a great base for Fort William and surrounds.

Cottage was in excellent position and had everything you’d need lovely view’s of Ben Nevis would certainly recommend it

We had a wonderful time at this great cottage everything was perfect ,we whould recommend it to everyone.

Lovely cottage with all facilities exactly as described.

Located in an idyllic / remote setting yet only a 5 mins drive to the town of Fort William and everything that has to offer. The weather was very kind to us during our stay, we climbed Ben Nevis (bucket list) and we searched for Nessie (without success) along with lots of other memories made along the breathtaking Lochs and coastline. Recommend for anyone looking for a great property in a quiet location close to everything this amazing outdoor region has to offer.

You couldn't get a more scenic view, staying in Brae Mohr cottage.

Everywhere you look it's like a postcard, we even managed to see the peak of Ben Nevis one day when the clouds cleared! We had a lovely week, the cottage is perfectly located to explore the Fort William area. The cottage itself has all the amenities you need and had a lovely, cosy feel to it. The upstairs is surprisingly spacious with lots of skylights to take in the views, and the kitchen is large and well equipped. Would definitely recommend!

We've stayed in a number of cottages and villas over the years, and this is definitely one of the finest.

Very comfortable and beautifully presented, furnished and decorated with care and attention to detail - it felt like a home from home. Beautifully quiet, surrounded by fields and sheep, yet only 10 minutes from Fort William - a perfect location to relax and to explore from.

This was a beautiful cottage in an area of outstanding natural beauty with spectacular views from every window.

The en suite downstairs bedroom was very useful with my husband’s poor mobility. It was well equipped with everything you could need. The grandchildren enjoyed pottering about in the numerous little streams and countryside. Only downside was the lack of signal for the mobile phones but there’s a pay phone in the house. It’s a quiet retreat close to the town. Would highly recommend this property.

Lovely facility!

Beautiful cottage, we enjoyed the tranquility and country setting with wonderful views of the Mamores and Ben Nevis.

We enjoyed our stay in your beautiful house, We particularly liked the bath and the kitchen where we could spill out onto the terrace and enjoy alfresco dining overlooking the stunning views.

The dishwasher and the washing machine in the separate utility were much appreciated as was the indoor clothes rack and the outside washing line to suit all weathers. Many thanks. We would have appreciated access onto the farmland as we were surrounded by fields but with no right of way for walkers. Could this be agreed with neighbouring farmers / landowners do you think? Such a strange feeling not to be able to ramble over the land to explore and immerse ourselves in the beautiful Scottish scenery. Also the two single beds could do with bed bed ends as it was more comfortable to sleep with head at the foot of the bed to make best use of the light from the sky light and to reach the electric sockets for devices. Otherwise we had a very enjoyable stay and especially enjoyed our trip on the Harry Potter Steam train and walk in the gorge just beyond Ben Nevis Visitor Centre. It was breathtaking.

We have had a wonderful week in this cottage .

When you walk in it instantly ticks all the boxes .It is bright airy and very clean .It has all the equipment you need. We were four adults and one child,plenty of space . The downstairs en-suite bedroom was one of the reasons we chose the cottage and it was so helpful to one of our party who has poor mobility The cottage is situated a short drive from Fort William, overlooking a quiet valley. The views from every window stunning. Ben Nevis looks so close. We were blessed with beautiful sunny weather nearly all week,which made it extra special that we could sit outside and enjoy the views. We would highly recommend this cottage. A big thank you to the owners who greeted us with two bottles of wine

What a lovely cottage, with great views.

I really liked the cottage and we will be back. We booked Fort William, as we do most years as we have family who live two minutes, down the road. Looks like a little cottage but is surprisingly spacious inside. Was hoping to see some lambs, before leaving on Saturday. I got my wish.

A great cottage in a fantastic location.

The cottage was very clean and had everything we wanted. It was well furnished with lovely comfortable beds and good bed linen. The views from the cottage were outstanding. We will definitely be back. Would highly recommend.

Did not meet owners.

That suited me. Location outstanding. Quality of cottage and preparation outstanding. Very minor point is that microwave interior is starting to rust.. great overall. Thank you

Lovely remote house above Fort William finished to a high standard with all modern fittings and everything you need.

About 10 minutes from Fort William on a single track road. Access was fine in November but might need 4x4 in winter.

One of the best cottage where I stayed in terms of outside view, comfort, facilities, accessibility etc.

Also quite close to Fort William town Centre. Love to book again the same cottage.

The cottage is very comfortable with contemporary fittings and maintained to a high standard.

It had everything we needed for an excellent stay. It is located in a wild and beautiful glen with outstanding views. Although isolated it has a decent, though slow, wifi installation, but there was no service on our cell phones (Vodafone). Sky TV was an added bonus in view of the less than clement weather - it rained every day! Fort William is about 10 mins away with an excellent range of shops and restaurants - single track road, but very little traffic. Would like to have met the owners/housekeeper but they kept themselves to themselves and did not intrude on our privacy. Would not hesitate to book this cottage again.

Brae Mhor cottage was superb, comfortable, well equipped, immaculately clean and well presented.

Then there are the views… wow! What a setting, surrounded by the mountains, every view a picture and with the mighty Ben Nevis in the background. Ideally located base for touring the area but we didn’t want to go out, just far enough away but not too far, perfect! Thank you so much to all.
