Blaich Cottage is rich with character and steeped in history. Approximately 300 hundred years old, a former croft, shooting lodge and originally part of the Cona Glen Estate. The cottage is traditionally furnished to a high standard and fully equipped with everything you need for a perfect stay. A magical romantic hideaway, or a fun packed time for a family, natures ideal playground for young and old alike.
Blaich Cottage a comfortable holiday retreat, sits in 16 acres of private and secluded grounds, including woodland , streams , waterfalls, with direct access to the hills, where deer are regularly spotted, all for your enjoyment with loch and woodland views from every window.
Blaich holiday cottage boasts breathtaking scenery overlooking the beautiful Loch Eil, a seawater loch connecting to Loch Linnhe which borders Fort William, a lovely town sitting under the magnificent presence of Ben Nevis, Britains highest mountain at 4406 feet.
Winter outdoor activities are the jewel in the crown for The Highlands. Check out the skiing, snowboarding, or just good old fashioned sledging. A fantastic playground for the outdoor enthusiast!
We have direct access to the loch for your boat, where you can while away the hours fishing, or bring your kayaks. Watch the Oyster Catchers and Herons at work catching the abundant fish. Porpoises have been seen swimming in Loch Eil at the bottom of the drive!
We have undercover storage behind the cottage for your mountain bikes or anything else you choose to bring with you. There are four bikes in the outbuilding for your use, and although they may not win the downhill mountain bike race, they are perfectly functional to have fun on!
We are very proud of our 'Visitors Book', which bears testament to the wonderful holidays our guests have enjoyed. Many have scaled the dizzy heights of Ben Nevis, whilst others have enjoyed swimming in the loch and streams, fishing for trout and mackerel from the shores of Loch Eil, kayaking, and the braver have enjoyed white water rafting and canyoning. Some have chosen to just soak up the solitude and peace of Blaich Cottage and its' secluded grounds.
If you can bear to tear yourself away from the peaceful ambience of Blaich Cottage, Lochaber can offer arguably the best outdoor pursuits in Britain.
Whether you want to walk, cycle, paint, picnic in the woods or visit the attractions in The Outdoor Capital of the UK, you will never be short of something to do.
