Guided West Highland Way Accommodation
B&B, guesthouse and small hotel accommodation is included in our guided West Highland Way adventures.

All the accommodation we use is carefully selected and personally inspected to ensure we have a warm welcome, good nights sleep and hearty breakfast to send you on your way in the morning.

Generally we all stay in the same accommodation as this helps to build a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. The West Highland Way passes through small villages and remote countryside so although the accommodation may not be the most luxurious it is always interesting, welcoming and geared to walkers.

Singles - Our guided groups are perfect for solo walkers looking to join a relaxed friendly group. Unless you specifically request a single room (supplement payable) we will partner you with another group member of the same sex in a twin roomshare. This saves on supplements and means the group can stay together as most accommodation has a very limited supply of single rooms.

In 2008 our guided groups will be staying in the following accommodation.
