Corrie Doon, near Fort WIlliam, is on the map of smaller hostels. And its a lovely wee thing. It is clearly a timber cabin both inside and out with a slight sense of Alpine style about it. Particularly as every exterior picture online shows the majestic mountains towering above it.

A timber cabin It sleeps 6 in 2 en-suite rooms and open plan communal area, not only with all the expected mod cons, but also underfloor heating and a sauna! Talk about your Hygge! Put your stripy woollen sock up and warm your hands on a cup of convivial.

I think you’d welcome it after you come down from the mountains. You’ve got easy access to some of Britain’s best skiiing, climbing, hiking and mounatin biking. So after a strenuous day of adventure you can retire, tired and content. There’s a secure store for your canoes, skis or bikes.

And then Ho! to the sauna.
