The Great Glen Way & the Caledonian Canal are on our doorstep & we're only 15 min to Loch Ness, 25 min to Nevis Range Ski Resort, 40 min to Ben Nevis Base and 50 min to Glenfinnan Viaduct. The space The Lodge is all on one level with 3 bedrooms to the rear (1 double and 2 twin rooms) and a spacious central shower room.

Guest access True North Lodge is a stand-alone self catering property and you have sole-use while you are here. We have free onsite parking in our large communal car park. The car park is about a minute walk from True North Lodge however you can unload your gear at the lodge and then move your vehicle to the car park to make it easier if you have lots of luggage. There is no parking directly beside the lodge. Please note if you are checking in when it's dark there are no streetlights! We are surrounded by trees in a parkland environment with woodland walks right from our doorstep. Loch Oich is a one minute walk away from the Lodge. Other things to note The village of Invergarry is a 5 minute drive away with a small shop and off-license both at the Petrol Station. Fort Augustus is 10-15 minutes away to the North and is a wee town which has an assortment of local shops, pubs and a Spar supermarket. Spean Bridge is about 15 minutes drive to the South and has a well stocked Spar and a couple of eateries. Both Spean Bridge and Fort Augustus have a pharmacy. For a 'big' shop then we suggest Fort William, 30 minutes away, which has all the main supermarkets. Fort William is also the location of the closest A&E/Hospital. The Eagle Barge Inn which operates with seasonal opening hours is a floating pub at Laggan Locks - A pleasant 30 minute walk away down the Great Glen Way. For breakfast and lunch then we highly recommend the Well of the Seven Heads which is only about a 20 minute walk from True North Lodge. Fantastic food and banter from the owners there. Check for seasonal opening hours. Our *next* favourite for breakfast, lunch and late afternoon meals is the Jaggy Thistle Cafe which is a 10 minute drive on the way to Fort Augustus. Fantastic home cooked food, brilliant cakes. Not forgetting the awesome Gift Shop! There are several local hotels offering lunches and evening meals in the surrounding areas which operate with seasonal opening hours. The closest restaurant is the Invergarry Hotel.
