Lime Tree Hotel – A Favorite for Families in Fort William

The hotel houses The Silly Goose, an award-winning restaurant where meals are cooked in an open kitchen format, allowing guests to see their food being prepared. The menu changes seasonally and is made with fresh local ingredients. A snug lounge area with an open log fire and views of Loch Linnhe provides a setting for pre-dinner drinks.

Lime Tree Hotel offers self-catering apartments that accommodate larger families or groups, such as the two-bedroom apartment with floor-to-ceiling windows in the master bedroom. The hotel is pet-friendly, providing rooms and apartments for guests traveling with dogs. A range of room types includes superior double rooms with loch views and standard double rooms.

The hotel operates an art gallery that hosts noteworthy exhibitions throughout the year, showcasing local artists. A shared lounge with a TV area and a picnic area in the garden are available for guest use. Board games and puzzles are offered for children and families.

Fort William Rail Station is a 5-minute drive from the hotel. The property is a short walk from the town centre and its shops, restaurants, and bars. Ben Nevis can be reached in just over 20 minutes' drive, and the Glenfinnan Viaduct from the Harry Potter movies is a 25-minute drive away.

The building is a converted church manse built in 1850, offering historical charm with its original architecture. A picnic area, sun terrace, and outdoor furniture allow guests to make use of the garden space. Free parking is available on-site, and the property provides soundproof rooms in certain areas for quieter stays.
