Fort Augustus Apartment | The Best View Of Loch Ness

1 Bedroom Apartment in Fort Augustus, St Benedict's Abbey

This exceptional split-level apartment in the Monastery Tower is truly unique. Beautiful original stone windows offer breathtaking views over Loch Ness. It has a stunning and private location on the top floor of St Benedict’s Abbey, a Victorian monastery that has been converted into luxury apartments. Stylishly decorated throughout, this property makes a wonderful romantic getaway.
Alternatively, it could be used for a party of four utilising the large sofa bed in the main living area.
The property is situated at the top of the grand stone staircase from the historic cloisters walkway. If you look at pictures of the Abbey, in many of them you will see a tall, square tower that stands above the rest of the building – this is where the Monastery Tower apartment is located.
In many of the apartments, and from the Abbey grounds itself, you will get some wonderful views of Loch Ness but the Monastery Tower offers truly unrestricted views over the trees and right across the water.
All of the rooms in the apartment are special but the highlight is probably the open plan living / kitchen area. A series of stunning arch windows work their way around this unique room bringing in much light and providing panoramic views of the loch and mountains.
Entertainment options include a flat screen TV with Freesat, Netflix (provided free to our guests), and bluetooth speakers for your phones and tablets. The fully fitted and well-equipped kitchen area features lovely granite work surfaces and the dining area has an oak dining table and four chairs.
Upstairs, the bedroom features a very comfortable king size bed, with windows overlooking the cloisters and a flat screen TV with an integrated DVD player for those lazy days.
Located next to the bedroom, the bathroom with its original quatrefoil windows and lovely views has a powerful built-in shower over the bath. There is also a second toilet located on the lower floor.
This welcoming apartment provides modern comforts and convenience whilst retaining many of its striking original features.

Summary: The suite was spectacular. The views were amazing, the building as a whole is beautiful. There are several flights of stairs to get to the suite but they are not bad. Based on other reviews we were expecting a difficult climb up old steep stairs. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the stairs were wide and modern with plenty of room to handle our luggage.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay in an amazing apartment. It was well equipped, quiet and a lot of things around to discover. Questions were answered very quickly and helpfully. Only the couch is not very comfortable. I can only recommend

Summary: Overall we enjoyed our stay. The apartment is clean and modern with a beautiful view. It does come with some of the issues you find with a very old building such as peeling plaster in the bathroom. Also the view is obstructed from some of the windows, probably because they are so high and difficult to reach for cleaning outside. None of this kept us from enjoying the apartment. One thing that needs a little more clarification is the number of stairs. We were prepared for stairs but the ad needs to state there are 7 flights of stairs to get to the apartment, in addition to the apartment itself having two floors. We still enjoyed our stay. The location and grounds were beautiful and conveniently located.

Summary: Spent a week at this amazing location. All the facilities at the Highland Club were excellent and the Location perfect. We ate at the Lovett Hotel which was amazing and the Boathouse restaurant with the friendliest staff and great food. For touring this location is perfect with instant access to the main roads. Highly recommend but beware the 78 steps to the Apartment, not for the unfit especially with Luggage :-)

Summary: We loved our stay at this picturesque Abby. It was so unique and special on the Loch Ness. I would definitely come back. The only thing you really should know is that it is 75 stairs to get all the way up. Worth the climb, but just good stuff to know.

Summary: LOVED staying in the tower!!! How fun staying in such a magnificent old monastery. The apartment is beautiful and well equipped. Quite comfortable for a reprieve from a busy trip. Perfect spot to relax and recharge. And look for Nessie! Lol Wish we could have stayed longer! We will be back!!! Thank you for sharing your special spot! FYI...Read reviews about the steps leading up. They didn't bother us at all. Worth the climb. 👍

Summary: Great accommodation but BE PREPARED FOR LOTS OF STAIRS and a short walk. Kitchen was well equipped and updated. Oven had something on it which smoked quite a bit when we tried to use it but not a major problem.
