The BEST HOLIDAY LODGE I have ever been to!!!
We stayed at…read moreCorran lighthouse lodge for 3 nights and I wished it would have been longer. I left with a very mellow heart.
We arrived at Corran Ferry Terminal and waited for the Corran Ferry to come back and pick us up to deliver us to Corran. The lighthouse is located just beside the ferry arrival terminal and the fare is £7.90 by car. Pedestrians go free.
There is a gate surrounding the premise that keeps unwelcome visitors out. Well, the occasional animals can still be seen,especially the unwelcome of all: mitchis! Argh :-)
The first room we entered was the utility room, also part kitchen. This place is HUGE. There is an ante room, which can be used for kids as a play area with their own Telly; another kitchen with a table that seats 6 and a AGA Hob; adjoining are a dining room that seats 10 and a living room with ample of seating space and electronic appliances. They also have SKY TV and WIFI.
There are 4 double bed rooms, but only one with sea view, 1 twin with a walk in shower, and a small children's bedroom with a cod. The bed rooms are on the first and ground floor ensuit each.
The housekeeper had prepared this place with love and left us milk, butter, coffee, pretty much all the essentials.
Outside is a veranda, which we used every day. One evening we had a BBQ. The grounds are extensive and well shielded from the sea by a stone wall. Its breathtaking to walk along the shore during sunset and the views towards the glens are amazing.
You find a small convenience shop within a 20 min walk and the pub just around the corner. Fort William is a 30min car ride and food shopping there is recommended, otherwise there is a Coop in Glencoe.
Will I go back? Definitely. And who knows you might too :-)
