Summary: The cottage was beautiful and had everything I needed, it was dog friendly and unlike other places I stayed that said this it actually was, my dog was welcomed with treats and a lovely bed and bowls, extra throws were left so your dog could use all the facilities and there were dog towels for cleaning after walks. The cottage was just a few steps from the edge of Loch Ness and beautiful walks into the town. The main building was stunning and all the facilities meant you could stay for weeks

Summary: Such a spectacular spot on the banks of Loch Ness, with simply beautiful surrounds. The Highland Club offers a perfect base to explore the area, with a wonderful rich history and architectural style to the building - a truly special place with an incredible atmosphere, evocative of the centuries-old history attached.

Summary: The cottage we stayed in was smart, well stocked with lots of little extras and very comfortable. The staff at The Highland Club were very friendly and knowledgeable including giving us advice on places to visit. The location at the head of Loch Ness is fabulous. Early morning walks along the loch side with my two dogs were an absolute delight. Fort Augustus is a very good base for exploring the Highlands but there are also fantastic walks and views in and around Fort Augustus.

Summary: Every part of our stay was tailored to us. From arriving and seeing the fridge stocked with essentials, cupboards with cleaning items, sauces and condiments and a healthy supply of coffee! As well as having all of your at home amenities, TV, WiFi, ironing boards, board games, drying racks, sports equipment and umbrellas for occasional incremental weather. The pool and gym area are a fantastic addition but the grounds of the Abbey make the full stay. The staff are all incredible and attentive.

Summary: Staying at the Highland Club was wonderful, with my two dogs and my daughter, we relaxed and had little adventures. The place was so clean and had everything anyone could want to fend for themselves. The beds were so comfortable at the end of our stay I went online to find the same brand of pillows to buy for my self! The situation right on the water was perfect and my daughter loved the pool , I wish we could have stayed longer!

Summary: A breathtaking building in a breathtaking location. The Riverside Cottages are perfect for families surrounded by wild rabbits and ducks. You are right on the loch so can enjoy it from dusk until dawn. Staff are very welcoming and The Highland Club add little personal touches to make you feel at home. Close to Fort William, Urquhart Castle, the loch cruise dock and Great Glen Ways Trail. We will be returning!

Summary: The cottage was spacious and comfortable, in a beautiful location, and with all the amenities we needed for a getaway in the highlands. The cottage has a lovely cosy but modern feel, with very comfy beds, a great shower and a big kitchen and tv. The grounds at the highland club are beautiful and right on their edge of Loch Ness. Can’t wait to come back here again!
