Nestled in the heart of Lochaber Geopark, Glencoe is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike. The valley and towering mountains of Glencoe were shaped over millennia by glaciers and volcanic activity, creating dramatic landscapes. Glencoe village, located between Loch Leven and the entrance to the glen, is the ideal base for exploring the stunning Highlands.
Known as the Outdoor Capital of the UK, Glencoe offers a wealth of outdoor activities, from hiking and mountain biking to kayaking and climbing. The surrounding scenery is breathtaking, with rugged peaks, glistening lochs and lush valleys.
Whether you're exploring the fascinating history of the area, hiking through the glen or simply soaking in the incredible views, Glencoe promises an unforgettable escape. With its combination of natural beauty, outdoor adventure and heritage, it’s the perfect destination for a weekend break or holiday in the west Highlands.
We adore Glencoe and the surrounding area here at Coolstays and offer a number of great places to stay nearby. These include quaint cabins, stylish houses, and converted vehicles.
