Highland Club Scotland

Self catering holiday apartments in Fort Augustus Abbey, Highland Club Scotland, Loch Ness and surrounding areas

Sitting at the foot of the famous and mysterious Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands, is Highland Club Scotland, providing memorable holiday homes in a unique and beautiful environment.

The Abbey has been creatively and beautifully renovated from what was formerly a military fort, constructed during the Jacobite uprisings, into 109 holiday apartments.

The renovation of the former St Benedictine’s Abbey has retained many of its original features since the monks first acquired it. Additionally, the location is steeped with history dating back as far as 565AD.

Highland Club Scotland and Loch Ness do not attract so many visitors by chance!

We cater for many different requirements, and our holiday homes are tastefully decorated, well furnished and fully equipped.

We are located in what is, arguably, the centre of the Scottish Highlands, steeped in Jacobean history.  Consequently, Highland Club Scotland is within easy reach of numerous tourist attractions, which include Ben Nevis, The Caledonian Canal, Urquhart Castle and many more popular and unmissable tourist attractions.

Also, there are properties for sale at The Highland Club! These properties make very rewarding investments as holiday rentals, or alternatively, can be a worthwhile consideration for that special retirement home or re-location, if this is something you’re contemplating.

You can enjoy the 20 acres of ground that constitute the Highland Club.

Or you can venture into the quaint, welcoming and ever popular village of Fort Augustus to enjoy the various bars, restaurants and other facilities, and even take a ride on the Loch Ness Cruise, a 2 minute walk from the main entrance of the Abbey, for a guided tour of Loch Ness, in a comfortable boat ride, while enjoying your favourite dram from the on board bar, while enjoying the experience with other guests.  If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of Nessie ! But please be sensitive – she doesn’t like being called a monster.

There are several places to stop for a drink and some lunch, where you can look outside and watch boats joining the loch from the Caledonian Canal. There is unforgettable sightseeing to be experienced in Drumnadrochit or Urquhart Castle. Or the chance to sit at the foot of Loch Ness and watch for the famous Nessie, because she’s actually really friendly when you get to know her!

So, whatever your preferred type of holiday might be, Highland Club Scotland has it all, and we look forward to welcoming you! The Loch Ness Monster may even pop out of the loch to say hello, but again, you can’t call her a monster, she doesn’t like that.

Further Facilities

The heated indoor swimming pool, sauna and steam at the Highland Club are beautifully designed and have views to the hills of the south of Loch Ness. An excellent place to spend some of your days at the Abbey, courtesy of Highland Club Scotland.

The swimming pool complex is operated by the facilities organization, Highland Club Management Company. The swimming pool complex is outwith the control of Highland Club Scotland and is separate from your holiday rental.  For the time being, the tennis court and gym should be booked via the same link as the swimming pool.
