    Definitely checking out the wheelchair accessible speedboat! And the bacon sandwiches we had in the cafe...

    Good

    Overall great but my pal who was using a manual wheelchair found the lift to be a little on the small size. When you get on to the first floor there is step free access to the cafe where you can get a very tasty bacon sandwich! Unfortunately there is a significant step to get out on to the balcony but if you go back out of the cafe and along the corridor there is another door that will lead out to the balcony. The Watersports Centre is a perfect base to explore the loch. Head to the reception area (dropped counter) and they can tell you about the wheelchair accessible speedboat - in busy times you should definitely phone and book ahead. There are also bikes that are perfect for a passenger. One style is side by side - with a bar to rest your feet on if you don’t wish to use the pedals. The other style has a seat at the front with the cyclist behind

    We drove and there was Blue Badge parking right outside the main door. If you're using Public Transport it's a little bit trickier.

    Fantastic accessible loo - it's massive and was spotlessly clean.
