Such a lovely stay

Wished we had stayed longer than the three days we had for Moat House 1. The property was perfect for our party size, really well equipped and plenty of space in an amazing setting. Thanks to the hosts.

The property was very unique and we enjoyed the amenities. We wish we could have had more time to make use of all the amenities available. We loved the historical aspects of the property. The Moat House was also very unique and was well equipped with everything we needed.

Wonderful stay!

Really great place! The Highland Club is beautiful with lots to do. We loved Moat House 1. Comfy beds, great shower and bathtub. Nice sitting room upstairs and kitchen is pretty and updated. The kids (15, 19 & 21) all loved it! The cloisters were beautiful and the whole area is just great! I really recommend it!

A hidden gem

This place was amazing. Fort Augustus is a great base for a wide variety of highland daytrips and this place was a perfect little home away from home. It's only about a two minute walk to the heart of the small town from your front door. The swimming pool is neat, the grounds are interesting to walk, and the restaurant was lovely.

Perfect Stay!

The location, property and town were all perfect! We were able to day trip to Glenfinnan, Inverness and Isle of Sky. Used the tennis courts, pool, and strolled the bank of Loch Ness. The CaledonIan Canal locks in Ft. Augustus are a real bonus. Would definitely return to the Monastery for a stay and highly recommend.

A short trip to the highlands

We have stayed in this location before and found it very good for the walks and wonderful scenery. Accommodation was as advertised main bedroom has no windows so no access to wifi or any signal. Kitchen is small and compact.

Amazing stay! Mark was very inviting. The location is inside the fort! Its beautiful. The house is very nice. We had 2 elderly,they struggled with the stairs. If you have young family, its an amazing property. The bath tub doesn't have shower head, so only one shower to use. Outside there is a restaurant too, we didnt use it though. The surroundings are amazing.

Wonderful property!

We stayed in Moat House 1 at St. Benedicts Abbey. It was a great location for our day visits to the Isle of Skye. The property is right on Loch Ness and the grounds are beautiful. It’s location to the town was great too. We did some shopping and ordered dinner a few nights. The property was clean and provided us all we needed for our family of 4. There was plenty of activities to do on the grounds. There was someone to greet us and explain everything upon our arrival. That was very much appreciated. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Fantastic Base for the Highlands

Just Wow, from the moment you arrive at the gates the property itself is impressive. The house was a great base from which we explored Loch Ness, Urquhart Castle, Eilean Doran, Isle of Skye etc. The kitchen is small and seperate, but since we only made coffee and light breakfast it was no big deal. The shower is AMAZING! and was wonderful after a day of exploring. The residence is a short walk to town with lots of shops etc. The only suggestion I would make to improve the property is a WiFi booster/repeater on the ground floor as the master bedroom does not get WiFi and blocks mobile data. Would stay there again in a heart beat!

Bilderbuch-Urlaub in Schottlands Highlands

Es war eine traumhaft schöne Woche. Wir hatten alles was wir brauchten. Das fußläufig erreichbare Dorf, die Umgebung des ehem. Klosters, die freundlichen Menschen, das Schwillbad (unkompliziert buchbar), das urgemütliche Spielezimmer mit Billard, Schach, Backgammon, etc.), (für den Fitnessraum war leider keine Zeit mehr): wir waren restlos begeistert. Als zu Anfang die Heizung nicht ansprang, war noch am selben Tag der Service da und hat direkt für Abhilfe gesorgt.

Perfect location for a Loch Ness stay

The Highland club is a perfect location to stay if you plan to stay on Loch Ness. The town is just right outside the fence of the Abbey so everything is in walking distance. The Fish and Chips at the Loch Inn may be some of the best we had in Scotland. There is plants of room to spread out in the apartment. The check-in process is tricky here because there are three different property management companies at the Abby. I saw many, many people confused as to how to check-in when they arrived. That seems to be universal for staying there, not just for this specific apartment. I would definitely stay here again. Such a cool spot.

Fugtig oplevelse i ombygget kloster

Dejligt feriested med gode udenoms faciliteter og med en fantastisk placering ved Fort Augustus og Loch Nees. Billederne som vi fik forevist, da vi bookede via VRBO, stemte desværre ikke overens med de faktiske forhold i den lejlighed, som vi fik tildelt. Det ene badeværelse og selve master bedroom var placeret i et tidligere krudtlager, og der var INGEN vinduer i rummene og ingen dør mellem rummene. Der var ikke en velfungerende ventialtion, og der blev meget fugtigt og tøj og sengetøj blev desværre koldt og klamt!

Beautiful setting

This is a beautiful property in a quiet setting. There are many good restaurants and bakeries nearby. The property was well maintained. There was a small error with the booking but the housekeeping crew did a great job getting the place together on short notice and we were given a thorough orientation of the property. We enjoyed our stay and would do it again.

Awesome property in a Grand Setting

As listed by the owner the photos don’t do this property justice.. it’s a beautiful apartment in a historic building in a stunning setting overseeing the Loch Ness. The apartment is fitted with all the modern amenities and comforts and retains the charm and character of the old Abbey. Could not have asked for a better place to stay.. Thank you Mike..
