United KingdomAn extremely well appointed apartment in a beautiful complex walking distance from the heart of Fort Augustus. Excellent facilities and comfortable
AustraliaBeautiful apartment. Clean and luxurious. Beautiful grounds and excellent location overall. Simon who looked after us was lovely with very clear and easy instructions particularly with regards to guidance around COVID procedures. Fully confident apartment had been cleaned to high standard. Check in check out very easy.
United KingdomSpotless, beds very comfy, shower great also the feel of the old building with high ceilings and windows with all modern facilities inside, can't fault anything we loved it
United KingdomAbsolutely everything was perfect, from the moment we booked, to the second we arrived to check in. Friendly greeting, very helpful but we were still left to have our privacy and enjoy our stay. My partner proposed to me in the grounds and it couldn’t have been more picturesque. Would NOT recommend the Boathouse restaurant on site, awful service, however luckily this was separate from the highland club. Apartment was stunning, had everything we needed. We received helpful documents and a point of contact from the moment we booked and we will without a doubt be returning, to bring our family and friends. Facilities were closed due to Covid, however, we had an incredible time regardless.
United KingdomOur first time staying in the Classrooms, the accommodation was amazing we had a fabulous weekend. As it was out of season the pool, steam room and sauna were not busy, so we found it very relaxing. I would recommend this property which was furnished to a high standard, very clean and lots of history in the old monastery buildings which were very quaint.
