Highland Club Scotland - Exclusive lakeside self catering cottages and apartments - vacation rental accommodation at Loch Ness

Book Early! Find Christmas New Year holiday accommodation

Fort Augustus Abbey is, without doubt, one of the finest old buildings in the north of Scotland with a fascinating history, turbulent at times, starting out as a military garrison and, ironically perhaps, later converted into a place of  peace by St Benedictine monks. Recently redeveloped, the abbey now provides some of the best self catering holiday homes, cottages and residential apartments in Scotland. 

Loch Ness lakeside location

Surrounded on three sides by water, the abbey at Fort Augustus is set on the southern end of Loch Ness in twenty acres of beautiful mature garden grounds which extend right down to the shoreline of Loch Ness, home of the world famous Nessie the Loch Ness Monster. The Caledonian Canal forms the western boundary and the river Tarff forms the eastern boundary.

Loch Ness, is just 30 minutes drive from the city of Inverness. Excellent road, rail and air links provide easy access to the Highland capital. Where is Loch Ness?
