One of our best stays in Scotland!!
This was one of our favorite stays in our whole 10 day, 5 city tour of Scotland. We'll start with the check-in process. We were met outside by a wonderfully nice woman that toured us around the grounds, showed us all the amenities, and gave us a history of the facility. The location was amazing on the shores of Loch Ness and the views from the apartment were fantastic. We loved the space and the fact that there was a kitchen and a washer/dryer in the unit. The kitchen was especially helpful since it was hard to find a place for breakfast before 9am and we were often up and out early on adventures. It was also nice having the boathouse restaurant onsite, and the food there exceeded our expectations. The character of the building was surreal, and we had to keep pinching ourselves that we got to stay there. Be warned, there are a lot of stairs, but it is completely worth it. My one complaint with the property is the queen bed in main suite is very uncomfortable...really it needs to be replaced. Since it was just my wife and I we ended up sleeping in the other bedroom with the two single beds. Otherwise, we loved our time here and it was easily one of the best stays of our trip, I'd highly recommend.

Fantastic with a capital F
Incredibly impressive building and setting. The apartment itself is awesome. Everything that you need is provided. The views of Loch Ness are fabulous but the view from the bathroom is amazing. This apartment definitely has the wow factor and we were blown away by the whole experience. Very highly recommended

Superb apartment and location
A very clean, bright and beautifully located property. You need to walk up a few flights of stairs to get to the apartment but the view from the windows is well worth it. Excellent communication from the owner. A superb, place, we are looking forward to returning in the future.

Great stay in Fort Augustus. Host was very friendly and gave us a thorough tour of the facilities. The apartment is bigger than we expected and everything was clean and comfortable. The grounds and amenities are really cool and made our stay memorable. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing
the property was very clean, centrally located, quiet, and on an unbelievable piece of property. They may want to mention the 72 plus stairs to the apartment. It was fine for us but may be a little challenging for anyone with a physical impairment, especially with luggage.

Awesome place, great staff
You won’t regret staying here, we were extremely late checking in due to charging points being manic over the Christmas period however we were still able to check in thanks to the member of staff who stayed up especially for us to let us in. Really thankful for that after a 9 hour drive! The apartment is incredible and location perfect. You’ll enjoy your stay here guaranteed. Local pubs a must too.
