Situated on the shoreline of Loch Linnhe, the lighthouse, which is still in operation (without a fog horn!) was built in 1857 by Robert Louis Stevenson's father and Uncle.
The original lighthouse keepers' cottages have been converted into luxurious self catering accommodation comprising 5 spacious en-suite bedrooms (available as twin or super kingsize beds). Also inside are a large elegant lounge with wood burning stove, dining room with seating for 10 and charming country kitchen. Upstairs is a small reading room overlooking the loch. Outside is a private walled garden, parking and access to the beach.
The scenic backdrop to the Lodge is the dramatic West Highland hills and glens of Ardgour providing opportunity for many scenic walks and outdoor activities.
Ardgour is in the centre of an area known as Lochaber, which includes Fort William, Glencoe, Spean Bridge, Invergarry, Glenfinnan, Mallaig and the Ardnamurchan peninsula.
Also easily accessible are Oban, the Isle of Mull and Fort Augustus, which is situated at the bottom end of Loch Ness.
