Roshven Farm Chalets
Self-catering accommodation in the West Highlands of Scotland

Roshven Farm Chalets

Our small sheep and highland cattle farm is on the shores of Loch Ailort, a sea loch that opens into the Sound of Arisaig. The highest hill for quite a distance - Roisbheinn - rises steeply out of the loch at the back of the farm to just under 3000 feet. For the adventurous, the views from the top are almost too spectacular to describe.

We are in an excellent position for those who want to tour Lochaber and even further afield - whether it is a boat trip to Skye and the Small Isles, a ride on the steam train or just a walk in the hills. There is a wealth of history in Moidart, not least the associations with Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Jacobite movement; and with all the natural flora and fauna you will run out of time to see and do it all.

Glenuig 4 miles - Lochailort 4 miles - Fort William 31 miles

  • Loch Ailort and the Sound of Arisaig are on your doorstep - ideal for sailing and sea fishing, so if you have a boat, do bring it. Boats can also be hired on Loch Shiel, 10 miles from here.
  • At Roshven, you can fish for brown trout in the burn (mountain stream) near the chalet, or from the rocks on the shores of Loch Ailort for cuddies and occasionally mackerel.
  • There are 9-hole courses at Arisaig (15 miles away) and Resipole (18 miles away), and an 18-hole course at Fort William.
