I had a fun stay at the monastery in Fort Augustus along with my wife and 3 kids. The property itself is beautiful and the activities for the kids were exactly what we came for. Whether it's spending time at the pool/sauna/steam room or playing chess in the courtyard. The apartment was well furnished and fit all of us well. The Spar in town allows you to pick up food (more than just necessities). Great communication with the team who run the property leading up to our arrival and then again at our departure.
Unterkunft in tollen Ambiente und viel Drumherumangebot
Check-in war problemlos. Die KĂŒchenausstattung reicht fĂŒr die wichtigsten Urlaubskochereien. Es gibt eine wirklich tolle AuĂenanlage mit Tenniscourt (2TennisschlĂ€gerBĂ€lle liegen in der Wohnung bereit), FuĂballspiel-und Badminton-Möglichkeiten, es stehen Boccia-und Cricketequipment zur VerfĂŒgung). Der Pool ist nicht riesig, macht aber SpaĂ. In dem Objekt befinden sich wohl Wohnungen von ca. 100 EigentĂŒmern. Unsere Wohnung war vernĂŒnftig eingerichtet, die ein oder andere Ecke kann gerne so langsam mal nachgebessert werden. Man sieht, dass der EigentĂŒmer nicht selbst ab und zu darin wohnt, dann wĂ€ren ein paar Schrauben schon mal wieder festgezogen wurden. Aber alles in allem eine tolle Unterkunft mit super Ausblick und definitiv einen Aufenthalt wert. Wir haben uns wohlgefĂŒhlt.
Excellent stay! We had everything we needed for a relaxing, comfortable stay. The apartment was clean, spacious and the amenities were amazing. One of the highlights of our entire trip was our stay here :)
We had a wonderful time at the Abbey. The host and staff were so accommodating, adjusting their schedule due to our delays and highly responsive. The views were wonderful and our three boys loved playing chess in the courtyard and wandering the grounds. A great location for excursions to Inverness, Ullapool, Fort Williams, or to just relax. Wonderful cafe nearby at the lochs. Very memorable trip and would come again.
Perfect location. Beautiful grounds. The apartment was clean and comfortable for this family of 5. We could not have been more pleased. Very convenient to walking in town and restaurants.
The location and accommodations were fantastic! Our biggest concern, the stairs, was a nonissue, and we are all seniors. I would stay in the monastery again, should I be lucky enough to return to Scotland.
This was the perfect spot for us. Located right on Loch Ness, this beautiful and stunning property was peaceful, clean, and quiet. Located about 45-50 minutes from Inverness, the Monastery was situated in a gorgeous town with some shops and restaurants.
Beautiful location and amazing place. 72 stairs to our apartment was not really identified ( we knew there were some!!!!) The apartment had adequate facilities for our stay but none of the little extras some places have had in the pantry cupboard. Our promised Scottish biscuits were not shortbread but sticky marshmallow and chocolate. Well heated. Location fantastic for all we came to see in the area.
While the building and surroundings were so cool and beautiful the actual sleeping unit was disappointing. The beds/matresses are super uncomfortable and not clean. The pull out couch was broken and dirty. The linens were not clean and had staines. Would not stay again.
The information provided was extensive and detailed (6 pages).
I would have found it easier to understand the check in process to have those details listed initially at the beginning.
Such as, you will need to text the care taker at ____, 3 days before arrival to obtain keys and to set up your tour.
This property is amazing! Yes, there's steps, but it's worth it! The view of the loch on one side, and the abbey on the other are picturesque! The flat is well appointed and comfortable; our group of four had plenty of room.
Our stay was unique and more than we had anticipated. The grounds and interior of the monastery were all exceptional and very interesting. The Bothy restaurant close by was a great place to eat.
