“This Fort William option provides comfortable, if not luxurious, access to the Scottish Highlands. I think its location and free parking make it a practical base for exploring nearby Ben Nevis and the West Highland Museum. For travellers prioritizing outdoor activities and local culture, it's a reasonable choice.”
