Morar is easily reached

Roughly 38 miles from Fort William, and 3 miles after passing signs to Arisaig on your left you will see signs to the Silver Sands also on the left. Very shortly after this turn right signposted Loch Morar and Bracara.
Follow the road over the single-track short bridge over the River Morar and under the railway bridge (watch out for traffic coming from the blind curve from the left).
After the railway bridge, turn right and follow the road with water to your right (this is River Morar exiting Loch Morar through the small hydro-electric dam).

(note: the Ordnance
Survey map used by StreetMap
at this scale does not show
the A830,
but don't worry - it's still there !)
After the river and a bend to the left, follow the nearly straight road passing some houses on your left. Just as some boats come into sight moored near the slipway to your right, keep an eye out for a gravel driveway on your left marked "Tigh na Locha" .
Turn left into the driveway and park in the area in front of the garden (if you get to a junction on the left and church in front of you, you've gone a little too far: just turnaround and it's a few yards on the right). Tigh na Locha is the semi-detached house in front of you, entrance from the porch on the left.
Now relax - your perfect holiday has just begun !
