Having completed the West Highland Way a celebratory meal was required. With a bust foot I was in charge of that, and luckily arrived here as the owner was popping out having just had a cancellation. Fortuitous all round. Our table of five was just what was required. A lovely log fire in one of the two 'waiting room' sitting... More

We got the last room available here which was very fortunate. Opening the front door is liking walking into someones very cosy home with fires blazing in both receptions rooms at the front. Our room was so warm and comfortable with a very spacious bathroom. We had dinner in the restaurant which was absolutely fantastic from start to finish including... More

What a beautiful little hotel, the food is absolutely stunning, of a quality you would expect to find in some swanky big city restaurant and this stay has been one of the highlights of our West Hjghland Way walk! The room was fantastic, nice size with a great view.

Always enjoy staying in the Lime Tree. Food was as good as ever and the wine was top class too. Room 1 and room 2 were both lovely with views over The Loch. We will be back to stay again, hopefully very soon.

Fort William isn't somewhere I'd normally stay when visiting Scotland but it was going to be the most convenient stopover for me in February so I checked on Tripadvisor for a promising hotel with good food. The Lime Tree seemed to fit the bill even though it's on the A82, at the start of that long drag of mostly unpromising... More

This boutique hotel cannot be beaten! Outstanding in every way. Stayed so often it's like my second home! Staff amazing, especially Will the chef! The owner David Wilson is a charming and talented artist! You won't be disappointed staying here!

We were looking forward to our return trip to Lime Tree as our previous two trips had been so memorable. This time, however, the staff just didn't seem prepared for us. It was a freezing Highland day and they admitted they hadn't heated our room, which was so cold we had to request another heater. Orders for dinner are usually... More

We visit Glencoe to snowboard pretty regularly and have a few places we like to stay - they were all booked up on our most recent visit, so we gave the Lime Tree a go and I'm glad we did. We had a lovely room with a very comfy bed and a piping hot bath - perfect after a day... More

Fort William was a stopping point through Scotland on a recent visit so we booked in at The Lime Tree. The accommodation was very comfortable and clean. Well located at the end of the main street therefore it was away from the main noise. We booked the restaurant for dinner and had a lovely meal, food was interesting and very... More
