Spectacular, romantic accommodation in an abbey at the shores of Loch Ness!

One of the most unique apartments in the abbey and one of the few with no direct neighbours ... once the 'secret writing room' of the monks with magnificent Gothic arches and vaulted ceilings, unique stained glass & high chapel ceiling in the bedroom and its own enclosed, private garden between cloisters and abbey church ; now a fully-equipped apartment in luxury & style! Enjoyment from the first moment, and so close to all services of the abbey, now known as 'The Highland Club' ... the cloisters are leading around the inner garden to both, the HighlandClubLounge with a full-sized snooker table, towards the shores of Loch Ness & into the abbey gardens as well as into the atrium of the Abbey Church with pool, sauna & steam room in the former chapel with HighlandViews.
The apartment features luxury from the fluffy bathrobes to the washer-dryer...here its warm & cosy at any time of the year & the Boathouse Restaurant in the abbey grounds caters for you as well ... ENJOY now for a couple of days or weeks!

All facilities of The Highland Club available are included; like The Chapel Pool with sauna & steam room, The Club Lounge in the former refectory with full-sized snooker table, MiniGym, Tennis Court and so much more to explore!!!

The Highland Club as the estate has implimented an online booking system for The Chapel Pool complex, Tennis Court and Gym; this in line with necessary limitations on capacity and time limits.

Great location
The location was perfect, a walk to the main street with food and shops. Apartment was very small quarters and the doors were difficult to lock and open. Unfortunately the dryer was not operational. The entire place was amazing and beautiful to walk around.

Cute little apartment in the abbey
This is a cute little apartment right in the Highlands Club, a former abbey. Great view out the back of the south shore of Loch Ness. Fort Augustus is a nice little quiet town but also a good place stay and branch out and see much of the countryside. Andreas is an excellent host and keeps the place nice and clean.

Staying at The Scriptorium Is a Must!
Our 6 day stay was nothing short of perfect. The Scriptorium is an amazing little apartment within a beauntiful and wonderful compound. We had every comfort of home right at our fingertips. The kitchen was fully stocked, the water pressure was perfect for showers, the bed was warm and comfy, wifi and cable were available, and being able to do laundry was great.
