Corran Lighthouse Lodge

Personal blog. Ardgour, Fort William, Highland Why rent any old holiday let for 10 people when you could step straight into a piece of romantic Scottish History?

Corran Lighthouse and its Lodge were designed by Robert Louis Stevenson's father and uncle. Since 1860 it has been a beacon for ships negotiating the Corran Narrows. The Lighthouse is operated by the Northern Lighthouse Board and was recently visited by Princess Anne who pronounced it a very fine lighthouse. She was right. The Lodge is light and airy with five en suite double bedrooms, there's a b

ig living room with a woodburner and magical views down Loch Linnhe to Mull and beyond, a glorious walled garden, and bossing the kitchen, a reconstructed 1932 AGA. There is also a backup electric cooker if actually cooking in, rather than looking at, an AGA is a bit daunting. Do at the very least treat yourselves to AGA toast made on the hob, one of life's great treats.

Life in the Highlands is endlessly exciting (if you’re me). Cruise ships and minkes yesterday, so close to the shore I could hear them blow, cruise ships and Chinooks today.

A minke whale had a high old time in the Narrows this evening. Unfortunately, when it was so close to me that I heard it before I saw it, I didn’t have my phone with me - can you believe it!
