It was self-check in from a key box. The owners sent mutiple emails detailing the procedures as well as one for what to do when we departed. The property was fantastic and everything we needed was there. I highly recommend this place! ##### Leonard Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gillian M. 14 Sept 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Summit Meeting at Birchbrae Lodges Fantastic. Used the lodge for a three day break with my sons and their partners as we were climbing Ben Nevis. Couldn't have picked a better location. The lodge is about 20 minute drive from Ben Nevis, 8 miles from Fort William and 5 minutes from a fery that took you to a lovely little pub called the Ardgour Inn. Jim and Pauline who own the lodges are fantastic, You couldnt ask for more helpful owners. Jim's local knowledge is excellanet, nothing was too much trouble. ##### Gillian M. ### 8/10 Good #### David H. 28 Jul 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Highland Break Great location for climbing Ben Nevis and surrounded by beautiful lochs. Peaceful lodge with plenty of indoor space. Comfy beds!! We enjoyed roasting marshmallows beside our lodge in the evening. ##### David H.
