We enjoyed our stay at the Shepards Rest. Its a fun little adventure to get to the property that involves a single lane tunnel. So I suggest not making the mistake and arriving at night. The property is beautiful. Its listed as 1 bath, but it actually has 2 which was a pleasant surprise. I thought there was a washer AND dryer, but its just a washer and some clips that I believe means theres a drying rack but definitely no dryer. Spacious place, would definitely return. Beautiful outdoor surrounding and views of Ben Nevis to wake up to.

It was a short trip to climb Ben Nevis. The property was everything we could wish for. Very pleasant, accommodating host, lovely welcome from the dogs and host of course. Quiet location. Would highly recommend.
