Parade House dates from the end of the Jacobite Rebellions and nestles in a unique, secluded location overlooking the gardens of the towns historic Parade.
In 2016 the current owners, local couple Nicola and Jim McCallum, architect and artist, took on the task of turning this impressive but neglected office building back into a home from which they could run their business McCallum Art House.
Renovation work to form their home continues in the main house but in addition to 'The Guest Room' they have also completed the space for their Art Gallery and furniture painting studio.
Fort William’s bustling town centre with a variety of shops, restaurants and bars is literally on the doorstep.
Private parking is available and just a short walk away are national transport connections.
Staying in the comfort of 'The Guest Room' visitors will find themselves at the heart of all that the Scottish Highlands has to offer. The Space 'The Guest Room', a self contained En-suite Bedroom, is located on the upper floor of Parade House, accessed through its own entrance door via an external staircase to the rear of the property.
The entrance door opens directly into the guests self contained area.
On entering, the hallway provides access to a well appointed shower room and also the spacious, thoughtfully furnished bedroom.
In addition to the king sized bed, drawers and wardrobe there is an area furnished for relaxing.
Although 'The Guest Room' is let on a room only basis there would be a welcome pack of tea, coffee, sugar, milk, shortbread....
The Owner's have also provided a fridge, kettle, coffee machine and variety of glasses, crockery and cutlery so that guests are able to picnic on the abundance of fresh produce available in the immediate vicinity.
The room is light and welcoming, and the Owner's artistic flair is evident throughout, from the art work on the walls to the repurposed furniture.

There are times when both Owners may not be around, on these occasions there would be the presence of a family member for emergencies and owner Nicola is always contactable by phone. The Neighbourhood Located in Fort William we are surrounded by impressive terrain, and in turn, have on our door step all that the outdoors has to offer.
From skiing and downhill biking at Nevis Range and the mountain climbs, forest walks and bike tracks surrounding us to sailing, canoeing and kayaking on nearby lochs and rivers.
For the less energetic we have in town a museum, library, distillery and a wide variety of cafes and shops, also a short drive away there are beautiful beaches, a gin school, an award winning contemporary Scottish art gallery and many historical monuments worth visiting.
After returning from a days sightseeing, or adventure seeking maybe walk onto the High Street and relax at one of the bars or restaurants, many promoting locally sourced produce, and whilst eating, perhaps indulge in sampling a locally distilled gin, whiskey or local craft beer. Getting Around Parade house is just a 5 minute walk from Fort William Bus Terminal and Train Station.
The West Coast rail line from Glasgow to Fort William is considered one of the most scenic journeys in the country.
Whilst the Caledonian Sleeper provides a rail route from London Euston direct to our door, a popular way to reach the heart of the Highlands from the UK's capital.
If arriving in Fort William without a car there is a regular local bus service, with direct bus routes to Oban, Mallaig, Inverness, Skye and Glasgow via Glasgow airport.
But to get the most out of visiting Fort William, and the surrounding area, having an independent mode of transport is beneficial.
If needed, there's car and bike hire available locally.
