Mrs Manley
September 2020
Property was in an ideal location for touring the Highlands.. Stunning views of Ben Nevis and Loch Linnhe. Owners were lovely and extremely helpful. Quiet peaceful location. Jacobite steam train is a must.

Little Danescroft is a lovely cottage and owners Paul and Helen are perfect hosts, they live next door and are more than happy to advise if needed.. I would recommend this cottage, the village of Corpach and Sykes cottages to anyone

Good starting point for Highland trips and wonderful view over Ben Nevis and Loch Linnhe for relaxing time in the evening.. Very well equipped kitchen und more than enough space for two people. Our host Helen was very attentive and caring. Depite restrictions due to Covid19 a very pleasant stay.

When we booked the property the photographs were not the same as are now presented.. The write up says the accommodation is semi detached and adjoining the owners property. In reality the accommodation is part of the owners house and there are owners rooms above the accommodation used by us. Movement above could be heard. There is a locked door into the rest of the house from the holiday accommodation and the owners landline telephone can be clearly heard. The phone rang late at night waking us up. The heating temperature and time is controlled by the owners.

The cottage was very well equipped with everything you could think of.. It was very comfortable and the views from the house overlooking Aonach Mor, Ben Nevis and Fort William were exceptional. Great location within easy reach of Glencoe, Fort William, Fort Augustus, Glenfinnan, the silver sands of Arisaig and Morar and the port of Malaig.

The property was an ideal base for exploring the area with all the home comforts for a relaxing evening after a busy day out and about.. All the usual cleaning materials were provided and the milk, biscuits and wine are a lovely touch. The property has stunning views of Ben Nevis and views over the loch and is on a bus route with a local train stop nearby. Highly recommend Little Danescroft for couples looking for a quiet and relaxing base.

Helen and Paul were very welcoming.. The provisions when we arrived at the cottage were much appreciated. The property was fully equipped and more than met our expectations. Well situated with stunning views across to Fort William and surrounding mountains. Would happily recommend Sykes Cottages and Little Danescroft as a base for exploring the area. We had a brilliant time.

Brilliant location, lovely owners and everything (and more) that you need for a comfortable, home-from-home stay..
Mr Sutcliffe
June 2018
The Cottage was really comfortable and well equipped home from home.. The views from the cottage are fantastic and the local shops and the shops in and around Fort William are very close to the Cottage. We had a fantastic time and would certainly recommend the area and the Cottage to anyone who likes the Highlands and Isles as a centre for seeing both. The owners Helen & Brian were very helpful and the Cottage & surrounding are a credit to them.
Mr Moles

It would be hard to get a better position with a fantastic view of Ben Nevis and the lock at Fort William.. The only drawback was traffic noise from the busy road at the bottom of the drive. But everything else outweighed that. Very warm welcome from the owner.
Mrs Kennedy
May 2018
Helen & Paul were very warm & welcoming owners & have a lovely, well equipped cottage with fantastic views.. Very peaceful - a real home from home with everything you could want & more. Very well situated in easy walking distance to Neptune's Loch one way & local amenities, including a friendly pub & co-op, in the other. Thank you again for a brilliant week away, we'll hopefully see you again in a couple of years!
Mrs Dolan
April 2018
Fantastic cottage, has everything you need including the superb views of Ben Nevis, the Loch and canal.. Helen & Paul excellent hosts and extra touches appreciated. The lounge is very comfortable and the bed is the best we have slept in. Nice patio area to sit with a glass of wine after the exertions of the day and admire the view. The cottage is a great base for exploring and, in fact, has a good flat walk from Corpach Basin along the canal to Neptune staircase. Would definitely recommend this cottage, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Mrs Melnik
September 2017
Very good, kind and polite hosts and very helpful.. Very good location, fully equipped house. You can feel really at home. I would love to go back there again.
Mrs Anforth
August 2017
We were welcomed by the owners who were extremely friendly and helpful in showing us around the accommodation and how the appliances worked.. The position of this property is excellent for stunning views and access to the train station, bus transport and of course the canal locks. Everything you could want was in the property, with the only exception of a washing machine (for one week for 2 people that was not a problem. Plenty of facilities to dry your damp clothes due to good old Scottish rain). Great location for getting around whilst close to Fort William. We certainly would recommend this property to anyone.

Danescroft is a delightful self-catering property, furnished with great attention to detail and in consequence feels just as comfortable as being at home, with the added attraction of a splendid view.. We have never before stayed in such an excellent rented property.

In a perfect position, reasonable price, ideal for couple wanting to explore the area, clean and comfortable, friendly and helpful owners..
Mr Hollebone
July 2016
Little Danescroft is in a wonderful location, just outside Fort William, on a raised position giving great views of the Fort William area and Ben Nevis directly opposite. The local steam train passes close by with a small station within walking distance. The is a shop (co-op) close by and supermarkets a short drive away in Fort William. The cottage has good WiFi and television and a well maintained garden. The owner was very welcoming and always on hand if required. Highly recommended !!
Mrs Walsh

Little Danescroft was so well appointed, I felt almost obliged to bake a cake! I didn't, but everything was there for me to do so. The best equipped kitchen in a self-catering cottage I have come across. The garden was beautiful, and provided the fresh roses we had in each room, and it was a pleasure to enjoy the view of Ben Nevis and Loch Linnie and all their changing moods. A really restful and pleasant week.

The owner was lovely, very helpful. It was in a great location, with good quality fittings and furnishings, everything you need.
Mr Briggs
November 2015
The owner was very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. The view from the living room window is breathtaking, Ben Nevis dominates the skyline, with beautiful coastal views over to Fort William. It was just 5 minutes walk from Neptune's Staircase and the Caledonian canal, and all the local amenities on your doorstep. This is a great base for a Highlands holiday.
