EPC Rating: Band C
The little but attractive village of Spean Bridge is located at the southern end of the Great Glen and is best known for its iconic Commando Memorial. Considered as ‘the crossroads of the Highlands’, the village offers an ideal touring base as it stands at the junction of roads north to Inverness and the Isle of Skye, south to Fort William and east through Glen Spean towards Loch Laggan and Strathspey.

Some additional extras eg candles, tissues and spices, condiments in the kitchen were a nice touch. Also a great base for hillwalking. Would definitely stay here again.

The cottage is comfortable, exceptionally clean and very well equipped with absolutely everything you might need taken care of. It sits in a beautiful, peaceful location with spectacular views. We were met on arrival at the cottage, and again when we left, Mathew and Edith are lovely hosts and we were made to feel very welcome. We would highly recommend Little Tigh Clovelly if you're thinking about visiting this area. The only thing missing, and its very trivial, was a guests comments book, its always nice to leave a little comment for your host and look at other guests tips for the area. Until the next time!!

The annex was very clean comfortable (very comfy sofa with a great view of a low ridge as the sunsets and lots of wee birds on the feeders, comfy bed and well equipped kitchen too). For us, it was a great base for hill walking, there are more Munros than you could possibly climb on a week long holiday within an hours drive, and plenty much closer too. I'd recommend the Carn Mor Derag followed by the CMD arret (airy scramble) up to Ben Nevis if you are comfortable with scrabbling.
