The Abbey, the oldest building in Fort Augustus, is built on the site of an old Hanovarian fort named after William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, the original foundations still form part of the buildings today. It was more recently a school, run by the monks, but it was closed some years ago due to financial pressures when, finally, the Monks closed the Abbey as a place of worship and the buildings were sold. Now, Fort Augustus Abbey, a Grade A listed building, has been painstakingly and tastefully renovated and converted into luxury apartment accommodation.
Glendoe self catering apartment is furnished to best satisfy and enhance your holiday experience, regardless of external factors like the weather. When the weather here is kind, it is simply heaven on earth and when it is not so kind, Loch Ness oozes with atmosphere and mystery that is hard to find anywhere else on earth.
