I lived in the Fort for a couple of years. There are tons of places to stay. Glen Nevis Caravan Site is popular and large, quite pleasent. There may be a flat at Torlundy Appartments, which is only a couple of miles away from the ski area or mega plenty B&B and hotels in the Fort, Onich or Glencoe. If the Fort, try Achintore road. It's the main road south out of the town, aka the Golden Mile.

Hi NPinks, I might be in touch soon to see if you have anywhere to recommend, I'm planning on doing the same at easter, providing the snow keeps coming!

We were going to do it the first week in January, but the M1 was closed when we were going to set off so gave it up as a bad job!

A friend was up there over the last school hols with his missus, said they have had so much snow, they have a good frozen base now so they say the snow should last a while, one day they has so much they couldn't piste bash with the ploughs they had

Looking forward to it Very Happy , then it will be a pain as the others go off to france for another week Big Cry

Good stuff, I heard last week that Glencoe had had more snow in 24 hours than is on record for anywhere else in the world...80cms! Although I'm not sure how true that is.

Thanks though. Trip to france next year maybe!

My mate said that too though he said 85cm, and as the ladies say 5cm makes all the difference Laughing
