Forest View Guesthouse, Kinlochleven Whw

We might have missed Kinlochleven without this stay, and that would’ve been a shame. It’s close to Glen Coe, which feels even more magical. The rooms were cozy, and our hosts were warm and genuinely helpful. Their suggestions all turned out to be hits. This was perhaps the best stay of our UK trip, and one of the best we’ve ever had.

Storm Amy knocked out the power and internet, but Sarah and Jack still looked after us so well. They brought hot water and plenty of food, and somehow put together an amazing breakfast. They’re the kindest, most caring hosts. The house is beautifully furnished, with such lovely taste, and so cozy. It was the best place we stayed on the West Highland Way. A perfect stay, and I’d love to come back someday. 💖💚

The food options around town are pretty limited, and there’s nowhere to cook, so don’t come expecting gourmet meals. That’s not the hosts’ fault, and it wasn’t a huge problem for us. Sarah’s continental breakfast was the best we had on the West Highland Way, and the breakfast and living room is a lovely place to sit and read. Jack and Sarah were helpful without hovering. The place is cozy, full of thoughtful touches, with comfy beds and great views. Their makeshift drying room isn’t as sophisticated as some, but it did the trick. Highly recommend!

I got a packed lunch for the next day, and it was very good. The bedroom was comfortable, the bathroom spotless, and breakfast delicious. This beautifully renovated B&B sits right along the West Highland Way. The hosts were friendly, communicated well, and clearly cared about giving guests a smooth stay. Don’t pass it up if you get the chance.
