Location of Fordon Self Catering
Easily
accessible in a variety of ways, Fordon is conveniently located
just off the A830, otherwise known as the beautiful "Road
to the Isles"
If arriving in Fort William from the South, take the A82
through the town and turn left onto the A830. Drive along
the A830 for approximately a mile and a half and look for
a signpost which says Badabrie. Turn right into Badabrie and
Fordon is the first house up the hill on your left.
If approaching from the North you will reach a BP station
at traffic lights just before Fort William. Here you turn
right onto the A830 and follow the same directions as above.
Finally if you are approaching Fort William from the Mallaig
direction along the A830 you will reach Fordon by turning
left into Badabrie about a half a mile past the shops at Corpach.
