"The Lodge was built in 1905 on land owned by the Fairfax-Lucy family. It replaced an earlier Mamore Lodge lower down the hill in the village itself. Constructed by British Aluminium - now Alcan Smelting and Power UK - as part of a deal to obtain more land for housing smelter workers in the village of Kinlochleven. Though the plant is now closed, much has been done to transform the village into an atractive walking centre. The new Lodge sits on a plateau, facing south, apporximately 700ft above the village and on the lower slopes of Am Bodach (The Old Man)."

The restaurant and dining room, as well as the lounge have fine views over the Loch and village to the mountains north of Glencoe.
The bar is an ideal place to rest weary legs at the end of a busy day, with bar meals served.
The Mamore Forest covers over 45,000 acres in area and extends in height from lochside sea level to eight magnificent peaks all over 3,000ft.
Miles of old stalking tracks and pony paths provide access to all parts of the area, giving you the choice of easier low-level walks, or of breathtaking, and more strenuous high-ridge walks, all from the lodge itself.
Mamore is also a welcome sight for many long distance walkers of the West Highland Way, which runs within a few hundred yards of the Lodge, and before the last leg of the walk which ends in Fort William.
The Lodge has fishing rights on nearby Loch Eilde Mor, and Loch Eilde Beag in quite, unspoilt surroundings. It is also well situated for exploring the West Highlands by car, with many beautiful areas within a comfortable day-trip.
Whatever you decide to do though, there will always be a warm welcome on your return.
