• Judith (10/5): - Das Zimmer war wunderschön und gemütlich, das Frühstück sehr gut. Kenny ist ein toller Gastgeber. Es war außergewöhnlich gut. Nichts
• Daniel (9/5): -
• Silvia (10/5): Tre giorni a Fort William una bella cittadina - Camera spaziosa e pulita - provvista di phon, bollitore, caffè e the con biscotti zucchero - bagno grande, doccia con acqua bollente e fornito con shampoo e saponi - la colazione è deliziosa c’è tutto: latte cereali yogurt frutta caffè the toast miele marmellate varie succhi di frutta formaggio uova bacon - il Proprietario è una persona simpaticissima e molto disponibile e cordiale - consiglio vivamente questa struttura Niente da dire
• Ton (10/5): - De hartelijke ontvangst door de host, Kenny, zijn behulpzaamheid bij vragen en het uitstekende ontbijt. Niets viel er tegen, alles was naar wens.
• Kerstin (9/5): -
• Arndts (10/5): - De eigenaar is heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Hij doet alles om het naar je zin te maken! Het ontbijt is genoeg en lekker! De kamers zijn ruim met een mooie badkamer.
• Christine (10/5): - Notre hôte très sympathique, la chambre, la position géographique. L'évacuation de l'eau de la douche italienne. Le petit déjeuner sucré.
• Kenneth (10/5): - Breakfast was very good, however at the price I was expecting a cooked breakfast rather than continental. It was adequate though. Nice big room and comfortable bed. Good view of the loch and in walking distance from the town and facilities.
• Arjan (9/5): Fijne B&B met een fantastische gastheer - Fijne B&B waarbij de gastheer het verschil maakt. Hij zorgde voor een prima ontbijt en vertelde ons het één en ander over Schotland. Hij was zelfs bereid om ons met de auto naar het begin van een wandeling te brengen en op de laatste dag bracht bij ons naar het station. Het douchen is in een badkuip waarbij het snoer aan de handdouche vrij kort was. Je moest dus in een kromme houding douchen.
• Regina (8/5): -
• vincent (8/5): Très bon séjour : accueil, proximité ville, petit dejeuner et grand calme - Dans l'ensemble tout le séjour Rien
• Elisabeth (10/5): Perfekte Lage - Kenny ( Besitzer ) sehr nett und freundlich Zimmer klein aber fein Frühstück Toast Butter Marmelade Cerealien Ei zum Frühstück wäre noch nett 10 min zu Fuss in die Altstadt von Fort William War alles ok
• Patricia (10/5): -
• Kristyna (10/5): - Kenny is very kind and welcoming host! Great value price-quality. Highly recommended :)
• Helen (10/5): - We had a fabulous stay. Our host Kenny was so welcoming and friendly. He goes above and beyond to ensure his guests have everything they need. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable and we loved the breakfast provided and the great conversations with other guests (from different countries) around the table.
• David (10/5): Kenny creates a sense of community and friendship as guests in his home. - We were traveling mostly by bus, and Kenny very kindly arranged with us to be home so we could drop off our luggage early before check in time and then drove us to the start of our walking explorations that day. He dropped everything again to give us a ride to the bus station on the morning we left. At breakfast each day, Kenny encouraged and joined in conversation with the whole table of guests from around the world, creating a sense of temporary community we didn’t find anywhere we stayed. In those few hours, we felt we got to know him (and our fellow guests) better and felt friendship above and beyond what we encountered in other stays.
• Giovanni.M (8/5): - The host, Kenny, was exceptionally friendly and a pleasure to converse with. The location was also perfect, just outside of the town square. The floorboards, which were not visible in the pictures, did produce some sounds, but this was not a significant issue.
• Peter (8/5): Perfect place to stay for a visit to Fort William. - Great location, fantastic host that couldn’t more helpful. Plenty of parking and only a ten minute walk to the town.
• Louise (10/5): Perfect host and lovely place to stay. - Beechwood is perfectly located a short walk from the town centre and set back from the main road o no traffic noise, just the sound of a stream and birds. The room was immaculate with lovely underfloor heating in the bathroom. Kenny, is the perfect host who goes out of his way to help and make sure everyone has the best stay possible. Nothing
• Kim Budolph (10/5): - Kenny is a fantastic landlord!!
• Alex (8/5): -
• Ansgar L (10/5): -
• Johanna (9/5): - A cosy B&B with a very friendly host and a good breakfast!
• Hawthorne (10/5): Delightful stay with all the ‘bells and whistles’ ! Perfect host, location, and great room! - Wonderful stay in Fort William after hiking the West Highland Way. Our host, Kenny, was friendly and extremely accommodating with delicious breakfast (with Italian coffee!) Our large room overlooked the water and was minutes from the main street with all the shops and restaurants. The luxury bath tub was an unexpected delight! Na
• Linda (8/5): - De eigenaar is super vriendelijk. Ik vond het leuk om elke ochtend met de andere gasten aan een lange ontbijttafel te zitten. Heerlijke koffie bij het ontbijt en meer dan voldoende te eten. Fijne bedden in een cosy kamer. Zou hier een volgende keer weer terug komen.
• Saskia (10/5): Es war toll und familiär bei Kenny. Wir hatten ein wunderbar großes Zimmer mit Blick aufs Wasser. Am Ende hat uns Kenny -
• PASCALE (8/5): - Kenny est un hôte aux petits soins, il fait tout pour rendre votre séjour agréable. L'endroit est très calme et tout était très propre. On a pu garer notre voiture dans la propriété. La chambre était un peu petite.
• Sarah (9/5): Just perfect 👌 - Kenny is the star of the Beechwood. He really was the most obliging and helpful host. The rooms were lovely and clean. I loved the underfloor heating in the bathroom, and the window I could open to listen to the little stream outside as I fell asleep. Walking distance to the main street with the shops, cafes, pubs and museum. We had some lovely downtime after walking the West Highland Way. Nothing
• Matthew (10/5): -
• Schwaller (10/5): Hôte très accueillant et chambres superbes - Très chouette endroit.
• Jana (10/5): - Wir hatten eine super Zeit im Beechwood! Der Gastgeber ist sehr aufmerksam und herzlich und hatte auch ein paar Tipps in der Umgebung für uns auf Lager. Vom B&B aus, kann man gut in die Hauptstrasse von Fort William laufen. Wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.
• Anzacs (8/5): WELCOMING HOST AT BEECHWOOD B&B - Excellent location, walking distance to town for restaurants and shops. Kenny the owner is a love, kind and interesting fellow. On our first night of arrival, we were caught in the Storm Dave we travelled through rain, hail and snow to Fort William. Kenny kindly offered to drop us in town for dinner and hus recommendations were Excellent. Under floor heating in the bathroom was a treat. Bed very comfortable and warm . Breakfast was just lovely with a wide variety to choose from Best muesli I've had i Scotland. Kenny is a wonderful host with interesting stories to share.. Our room was very compact with little room for suitcases that we had not foreseen.
• Lesley (10/5): Great place to base out of for Fort William. Helpful host and his suggestions - Quite off road great location.Wonderful informative host. Great breakfast. Friendly great bed. Temperature control was difficult and now hooks or hangers to hang clothes
• Laura (9/5): It was great! - Kenny is very attentive and genial. The breakfast is very good. The photos of the room on the website don't do it justice as it is much more spacious with charming details including a lovely pebblestone shelf around the amaxing, and large, corner bath. Great location right beside the Loch and only a short walk to the town centre. It is a little cramped at the sink in the bathroom because it is under the eaves.
• Max (10/5): Comfortable and nice place - Very nice host and great location Nothing
• Dawn (8/5): Very friendly host. Clean, organised, no frills accomodation - Very friendly welcoming host. If you have the front bedroom then there's a fantastic view of the loch. Would prefer separate breakfast tables rather than one to share with others. No option of a cooked breakfast.
• Helen (10/5): - We loved the beautiful scenery and the host was very welcoming.
• Gabriel (10/5): Schön und gemütlich - Das Frühstück war toll. Schlicht und gut. Kenny ist ein feiner Gastgeber Leicht störend war der kleine Bach hinter dem Haus. Nach 2 Tagen hat man ihn aber nicht mehr gehört.
• Catherine (7/5): - B&B was spotless, good continental Bit far from town, struggle walking
• TATIANA (10/5): OTTIMO B&B - Piccolo B&B dove ci siamo sentiti come a casa, Kenny è una host cordiale, disponibile che cerca di mettere gli ospiti a proprio agio, nonostante il nostro inglese non proprio fluente siamo riusciti ad avere con lui delle piacevoli conversazioni. La nostra stanza matrimoniale e il bagno erano decisamente più grandi del normale, immancabile il comodo bollitore per tea e caffè; tutto era estremamente pulito. La posizione è ottima, in 10 minuti si raggiunge a piedi il centro di Fort William che in sé, almeno a fine ottobre, non offre molto, ma è un buon punto strategico per visitare varie zone circostanti. Buona la colazione, prevalentemente dolce, e apprezzata particolarmente la vasta scelta di frutta fresca. Parcheggio a disposizione all'interno della proprietà.
• Timothy (10/5): We will definitely be back!! - The host,Kenny , offered wonderful things to see and do!! He was charming, friendly and made us feel like we were staying with family!! Our room faced the water, the other guest were friendly as well! The room was quite large and well furnished and beautiful!! Everything was great!!

• Susana (8/5): Buena experiencia. - Kenny es muy agradable y se preocupa por los huéspedes. El baño es muy bonito. La cama y las almohadas son muy incómodas, no se descansa nada bien. Se hunde uno en la cama y es muy importante descansar bien y mas en vacaciones….

• Zahn (10/5): -
• Paul (10/5): Excellent Bed and Breakfast à Fort William - Excellent accueil du propriétaire qui est venu nous chercher à la gare et nous a raccompagnés. Situation au calme en retrait de la route très fréquentée. Petit déjeuner de qualité. Je recommande vivement ce Bed and Breakfast.
• Lukáš Rajchl (9/5): - The host was nice and chatty, he even had some recommendations about the area.
• Karin (9/5): Angenehmer Aufenthalt in ruhiger Lage. - Sehr gutes kontinentales Frühstücksbuffet. Sehr kommunikativer Gastgeber mit dem wir interessante Gespräche hatten. Ruhige Lage, aber das Zentrum von Fort William war zu Fuß in etwa 15 Minuten erreichbar.
• Joanne (7/5): -
• Bruno (10/5): Een heel fijn verblijf in één van Schotlands mooiste streken! - Kenny, de gastheer, was zeer vriendelijk! Hij gaf ook advies waar je best kon parkeren als je iets ging bezoeken. Het ontbijt was lekker en de locatie is zeer rustig gelegen vlakbij het centrum van Fort William.
• Janet (9/5): -
• Bjarke (7/5): -
• Remy (9/5): - The host Kenny is very friendly, hospitable and helpful no proper shower
• Yvonne (9/5): Tolle Unterkunft mit tollen Vermieter - Die liebevolle und freundliche Bewirtung des Vermieters
• Graham Penfold (8/5): - Large bedroom and bathroom. Friendly staff. Ample private parking. Great location for the town centre. Lighting could be improved in the bedroom. TV in room could be in a higher position, to make viewing more comfortable.
• Vinyard (10/5): -
• Alain (9/5): -
• Paul (6/5): OK but better options elsewhere . - Comfortable size room and good breakfast A bit far out from town centre . Bathroom shower and towels need updating .
• Peter (10/5): Super host, great BnB. Ideal location. - Great location. Lovely healthy breakfast. Kenny the host was brilliant. Parking access was a bit tight - however I was in a V-class minivan and managed.
• Pat Tyson (6/5): - The owner was very good and the house was in walking distance of the town main street and the railway station (for the Harry Potter Railway). The room and bed we had were rather small for us.
• Hélène (10/5): B&B charmant, pratique et hôte exceptionnel - - La proximité avec Fort William, Glencoe et Ben Nevis - La sympathie de Kenny et ses conseils pour se balader aux alentours - Le charme de la chambre - Le sol chauffant dans la salle de bain de la chambre du bas ! Tout était parfait mais, le lit était un poil petit pour mon conjoint qui est plutôt grand.
• Rosemary (10/5): This is a comfortable, quiet and wonderful place to stay. - We had Room 3 and it was so spacious, very private with its own entry door then the room door off an entry foyer. The bathroom was spacious too with a huge bath and separate shower. Free parking on site and walk to city centre. The host Kenny is easy going and friendly. Breakfast is exactly what I want with plenty of fresh, quality fruit, toast, cereals and more. Netflix is supplied. Bed is comfortable and the whole place is quiet. This really is a quality B&B with quality furniture and fittings. I immediately felt relaxed and comfortable just like home. Nothing
• Markus (10/5): -
• Uwe (10/5): Hervorragendes B+B in ruhiger Lage - - großes Zimmer - extra großes Badezimmer mit Badewanne und Dusche - Parkplatz am Haus - sehr netter Gastgeber - ruhige Lage - leckeres Frühstück
• Onkel Horst (8/5): Fort William am Ben Nevis ist eine Reise wert - Kleines B&B. Lage abseits der Strasse und doch gut gelegen. Bad im Hundertwasser-Stil. Gastgeber sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Parkplatz auf dem Grundstück. Frühstücksraum gemütlich. Doppelbett mit 1 Decke zu schmal. Zimmer sehr klein. Frühstück- da hatten wir schon bessere gehabt. War eigentlich relativ teuer im Vergleich zu den anderen Unterkünften unserer Reise. Zahlung vor Ort umständlicher als über booking.com.
• Stephen (10/5): - A really nice B&B. Ken was a great host and very kindly drove us to near the King's House to complete our last leg of the WTW up the Devils Staircase that we had to skip because of the storm on the Monday before. He also dropped our bags at the station for our train home, to save us having to lug them along the road. Would definitely stay here again!
• Matias Eduardo (10/5): Excellent B&B with excellent breakfast. - The size of the room is great. The beds are comfortable, the bath is very clean and comfortable. This B&B is better than most hotels that we have been to in Scotland. The parking space is great, the host is excellent, helpful and breakfast is the best we have had in all of Scotland. The only detail that could be better is that the shades or window blinds do not fully block the incoming light. In summer, at about 7.30am there is already a lot of light coming in the bedroom. However, this happened in every single place that we stayed in Scotland and also Ireland.
• Sergio (9/5): - La amabilidad de Kenny.
• Siegfried (8/5): -
• Sue (9/5): -
• Stephanie (7/5): Warm Welcome and Great Location - Kenny was a truly lovely man — welcoming, friendly, and made us feel right at home. The location was great, and the room was comfortable with a nice bath. Breakfast was tasty, and the host was very attentive and caring during breakfast service, making sure we had everything we needed. Wi-Fi could be better, noticed a few cobwebs so cleanliness could be improved, and the place could use some finishing touches. Breakfast didn’t include any warm options.
• Mark (10/5): Kenny the B&B owner was the most kindest gentleman we have ever met THANK YOU KENNY - Breakfast was continental and plenty of it only needed to ask if you wanted more The location was ideal close to the loch and only a short walk to the town shopping area with railway and bus stations just a bit further For the people who like walking BEN NEVIS easy to walk too There wasn’t any aspect of our stay that was not to disliked Everything was just perfect
• Steffen (10/5): Perfekt für ein paar Tage in dieser Gegend - Sehr unkompliziertes Check-in, netter Gastgeber, großes Zimmer, leckeres Frühstück Gute Lage, um gut und bequem zur Innenstadt zu kommen —
• grant (9/5): - Great B&B with a great host. Clean and nice rooms. Highly recommend Nothing
• Gwen (10/5): Fantastisch verzorgd en een zeer fijne accommodatie om te verblijven. - De accommodatie was van top tot teen verzorgd. Super schoon, goed verzorgd met koffie en thee faciliteiten. De host was zeer vriendelijk en maakt lekker ontbijt klaar. Zeer genoten en zeker een aanrader! Niets, alles was goed.
• Phuc (10/5): Un accueil chaleureux - Un accueil chaleureux dans une maison agréable. Proche du centre ville à 15 minutes à pied. Rien

• glenys (9/5): Good base for the local area. - Friendly welcome, helpful with local knowledge . The bath was lovely. Breakfast was basic but adequate.
• Andrei (10/5): Tout simplement parfait - La maison d’hôtes a tout ce qu’il faut pour passer le meilleur des séjours à Fort William : un endroit calme, reposant, spacieux et parfaitement équipé, avec une magnifique vue sur le lac. Et surtout, la compagnie et les attentions de Kennie, notre hôte, qui par sa gentillesse et ses conseils a rendu notre séjour inoubliable.
• Shute (10/5): - Kenny, the host, went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable.
• Annika (10/5): - Very friendly and personal, we loved it, and hope to revisit at some point !
• Thomas (5/5): Nett, sauber aber kalt, kalt, kalt! - Großes Schlafzimmer und Bad. Fußläufig zum Zentrum. Gute Ausstattung, Vermieter sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Alle Räume sind ungeheizt, es war sehr kalt im Schlafzimmer und Bad. Wenn man von der Motorradtour kommt und nasse Sachen hat, bekommt man die nicht trocken, da es keine Heizung gibt.
• Elena Petti (8/5): -
• Holly (9/5): -
• Judith (10/5): - My friend and I had a wonderful stay at this very comfortable B&B. Beds were comfortable and our host Kenny couldn't have been more helpful. I especially enjoyed the wonderful conversations around the breakfast table. It was so good to share one big table, where guests actually talked to each other. What a great way to start a day. Nothing apart from the weather which was hardly anything to do with the accommodation. At least we had a cosy room to dry out in.
