- Viswajith (10/5): -
- David (10/5): Perfect location for exploring Glen Coe, Ben Nevis, Harry Potter and Local Hero (&James Bomd!!). - The owner came out if his house to welcome me, we had a lovely chat about my journey, what I was looking to do, the weather.....and he was just a lovely bloke. Nothing - it was a little chilly, but I don't think I can blame the owner or booking.com for the weather (it's Scotand, it's October......)
- TERRY (9/5): Very good.Nice cabin,great loca -

Everything you need to self cater too Nothing at all
- Caroline (8/5): Lovely relaxing break in a quirky stay - The location is great if you are looking for peace and quiet like we were.
The bed is really comfy.
Great shower with plenty of hot water.
Is equipped with more than enough in the kitchen, the tea, coffee, sugar and salt and pepper we're a nice touch.
The host was lovely, only popped over when we arrived to explain everything and as we were leaving. A little more screening from the house would be nice to make it a bit more private, but it was as advertised.
- Vince (10/5): - Everything, nice,smart,tidy and very comfortable. Would definitely go here again. Nothing.
- Sabine (10/5): Hebergement atypique très confortable, bien équipé et hôte accueillant. - Hôte disponible et efficace.
Service rendu allant au delà de ce qui est attendu.
- shelby (10/5): Quirky accommodation on the road to the isles with beautiful finishes and well equipped for a comfortable stay. Lovely - The quirky charm. The Jacobite steam train passes right in front of this property. The views across the loch are stunning. The lovely host thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. Well equipped kitchen with beautiful finishes. The furnishings are top notch, and the bed was super comfortable. What’s not to like!?
- cariou (9/5): Un petit cocon entre Fort William et Glennfinan - Le carriage est un vrai cocon joli et fonctionnel. Cadre calme et reposant. Nous etions a pied neanmoins il y a des lignes de bus non loin de la pour rejoindre Fort William. La propriétaire est très attentionnée. Encore merci pour votre accueil :-)
- Raphael (10/5): -
- Marie sophie (7/5): Rigolo mais sans plus, une nuit aurait suffi - Étape amusante, si vous voulez passer une nuit dans une roulotte ! L’endroit est parfaitement aménagé et équipé, très propre et confortable. En revanche, on ne peut pas dire que ce soit un endroit très calme puisque la roulotte est située à quelques mètres de la route et en contrebas de la voie ferrée. Il a fallu attendre la tombée de la nuit pour que la circulation se raréfie, dommage Le bruit des voitures sur la route
Les deux nuits obligatoires
Le prix en plein été
- Janne (7/5): - very clean
- Magdalena (10/5): Great stay with a helpful host! - Everything was perfect, the Carriage is equipped with everything you need and more. There's even an Airfryer. The host was super nice and helpful when we were there quite literally at one of the hottest days for decades and brought a thinner blanket and a fan. We loved that we could see the Jacobite Train passing just by looking out the door.
- Caroline (10/5): Exceptional -
- Duncan (10/5): Exceptional -

- Graham (8/5): It was nice and we enjoyed the scenery, I would probably stay there again. - It was very clean. The location was a bit difficult to find but it was nice and peaceful once we got there. It was quite small inside.
- Paul (9/5): Superb - Great little place with stunning views, nice & comfy with a great bed & facilities just what was needed after a long hike. Shop just down the road so there's everything you need to stock up on the essentials. All round a great stay & would definitely go back again. Only downside was the main road & railway directly opposite but they're just little things & for me not really worth complaining about.
- Price (10/5): Exceptional - Very warm welcome
Even with owners staying near by didn't even notice anyone was around. Great base for plenty of walks within 15/20 min drive. Got to see northern lights also from carriage

- Elinor (10/5): Exceptional - The host was incredibly lovely and met us upon arrival. She gave us lots of great recommendations and showed us how to work everything in the property. Everything was spotless, the bed was comfy ,and the bathroom was amazing. The only fault we had was that the water in the sink in the bathroom did not appear to get any warmer.

- Susanna (8/5): We were delighted to have found this property - it’s perfect for a short trip. - Great location, quaint accommodation at similar price to an anonymous hotel. The Carriage was very well equipped with an imaginative use of space. Harsh lighting which made it difficult in the evening when relaxing.
- Ray (8/5): Comfortable stay n beautiful location - Beautiful location, comfortable and clean accomodation. Friendly host. Would have been awesome to have food hamper.
- Vivienne (8/5): Highland visit - Great location, comfortable, finished & equipped to a high standard.

- Patricia (10/5): Nice stay, a bit noisy - The setting was beautiful. So appreciated the birds and feeders. We were there to just relax and it was a perfect spot. Next to a very busy road so was noisy outside. You are basically in someone’s back yard - which we didn’t mind but could be awkward.
- Mark (8/5): Very good -
- Rowena (9/5): Perfect Fort William pit stop - It has every mod con imaginable packed neatly into a small space! From underfloor heating to a dishwasher. Amazing. It was bright airy and comfortable, we even saw the resident pine martin both nights we were there. Nothing.
- Laina (10/5): Exceeded our expectations! Loved this place. - We loved everything about this place. The hosts did a wonderful job decorating this property. There is even a train that goes by several times during the day, which only adds to the experience. Bed was very comfortable; had everything you would need to cook your own meals if you wanted. nothing
- Angela (9/5): Very comfortable, clean and cosy. - Beautiful quiet location. Accommodation very comfortable and everything you need is supplied. Very cosy and lovely hot shower.
- Gedeon (10/5): By far the options in the region! - They have done it right. We’ve stayed in many similar mobile homes but this was the best one. This level of luxury is perfect. From a shower showing the actual temperature, an induction plate and a dishwasher, to very comfortable bed linnen and a private terras with lake views. Just lovely. Lights are very bright for the evening. Installing smart lights that can be adjusted in brightness would make it perfect.
- Zoe (10/5): Fabulous - Everything you could need or want was there
- Kenneth (10/5): A great break in lovely accommodation in a beautiful part of the world. - It was a lovely experience - a fully equipped unit - in a totally different/unique type of accommodation. All in all a great couple of days. We liked everything.
- Joaofb (10/5): Perfect stop to explore West Highlands - We had an amazing stay in the charming and unique Carriage. Conveniently located near major Scottish landmarks, the Carriage itself has everything a solo traveler ou a couple need, the view is beautiful and the sound of birds in the morning is priceless. Cindy was very flexible with our late check-in and super helpful with tips to explore the area. I wish our stay had been longer!!
- Kristian (10/5): Ten out of ten. - A lovely, incredibly well presented holiday let with great views. We loved our stay. The place was immaculate with all the mod-cons. We even got a brief glimpse of a pine marten when it was raiding the bird feeder. Would definitely stay again.
- Miles (9/5): Perfect for couples. -
- John (10/5): Relaxing and picturesque setting. - Perfect location and setting
- Nadia (10/5): Perfect carriage, kind and accommodating host. - It was clean, modern, comfortable and had absolutely everything you could need to enjoy your stay. Absolutely nothing!
- Julie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mary (10/5): Exceptional - The property was clean and very comfortable.
- Paul (10/5): Loved our stay here, fab views facilities and we will be back! - Loved the location being not too far out from Fort William with fab view of the loch and the daily passing of the Jacobite Steam Train! All great!
- Helen (10/5): It was set in a glorious location, overlooking a loch … It was quiet & peaceful . The owners were lovely. Would defi - It was just perfect for the 2 nights / 1 day event The property was perfect
- Thomas (10/5): Simply wonderful. Would recommend a stay here to everyone I know. - Firstly the greeting from Cindy was kind and really helped me with local information. I was staying to run the Highland Way and this could not have been more perfect for my needs. The carriage was spotlessly clean, very modern and had all the amenities I needed. Beautiful view and very easy to find thanks to the communication from the owners. Cannot wait to return to such a beautiful place with such kind hosts. Nothing could have been better.
- Karen (10/5): Amazing - Loved everything, you couldn't not love it, so spotless, everything you need and fitted out to a high standard. Extremely comfy bed, amazing shower and so peaceful. View is stunning. The owner that lives on the grounds is the most down to earth, easy going, lovely person and if you need her she is there. Would highly recommend. Nothing
- Tina (9/5): Very clean modern comfortable - Very well presented, clean, modern, comfy, little touches to make it nice ie scents used etc. Not sure what was going on in the house on site. Cars there but no one came to check us ???? Maybe as a heads up - a kids play area in front of the view could be looked into
- Carole (8/5): Very good -
- Catherine (9/5): Home away from home - Perfect location to base ourselves for day trips into highlands. Our hosts, James and Cindy were great giving us local tips so that we could maximise our stay. All the latest modern fit out and comfort. Amazing auto shower. The view over the water was great after a big day sight seeing. Possibly an Australian thing, we normally sleep under a sheet without duvet so missed only having a duvet but really not a negative and didn’t affect our stay.
- Adrienn (10/5): I really enjoyed my stay there. It is ideal for solo travelers who love outdoors. - Great location, the accomodation is very close to Fort William. I passed the place first but I managed to turn around so I got there at the end. It is run by a friendly and welcoming couple. The carriage has all the amenities you need. The area is peaceful. After a long day of hiking, it is relaxing to sit outside, have a glass of wine and enjoy the view. I stayed there when it was very hot. I had to leave most windows open to let some air inside. Some citronella candles or essential oil might be helpful to get rid off the midges.
- Anonymous (10/5): The best 2 night stay I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to return. - Immaculate inside. Loved the girly touches. The views were incredible. Such a lovely couple who run the carriage, who were so welcoming. Can’t wait come again xx
- Jo (10/5): Perfect accommodation for a short break - Loved everything about it. Great location, close to Fort William and can see the Jacobite steam train pass by each day. Very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. So original, and great view across the loch
- Terry (9/5): Lovely! Peaceful and fun! - Very quaint. Exceptionally clean.
High end decor, fixtures and fittings all perfectly nestled in an adorable “carriage”. Perfect central location for many adventures. Quiet private setting. Over all exceptional! One small glitch was the Wi-Fi. If you are dependent on Wi-Fi to make bookings on your mobile device, be sure to do so before arriving. There is Wi-Fi there, but signal too weak to be effective. Small thing in the scheme of things- but important if you need to access Wi-Fi for bookings and so forth.
- James (10/5): Exceptional - It had absolutely everything we needed; nice kitchen, comfy bed, immaculate shower room, all in a great setting. Three lively woodpeckers in easy view having their breakfast as we had our own.
- Jim (9/5): Superb -
- Pamela (10/5): Really liked the area,close to Fort William and just a few miles from Glencoe. - We self catered,everything we needed was in the property which is located on an elevated space in seclusion yet excellent view of scenery and local nature,selection of birds and even glimpsed a pine marten.Perfect for those who need peace and quiet.Also plenty to do,walking,canoeing boat trips and easy lication for a journey on the Steam Train to Mallaig.Hosts were friendly,helpful yet respectful of privacy. Nothing comes to mind.
