Boys Dormitory

Description from the owner

The Boys Dormitory is a very spacious 95sq mtr, one bedroom apartment positioned on the vaulted top floor of the old monastery, with huge arched stone mullioned windows. The apartment is one of only a few in the entire abbey to enjoy views in three directions, with every window offering sensational views of the landscape. The apartment is decorated in the most luxurious style, combining quality antique and modern furnishings, featuring Victorian floorboards, antique paintings and prints, and vintage lighting sourced from a local chapel, with wonderful attention to detail throughout. The most idyllic place, a far cry from when up to forty boar...ding students shared what was the original junior boys school dormitory, located between the Abbot’s chapel and a lovely bell tower.

The bright and airy large living room and open plan kitchen area offers the very finest level of comfort including Duresta soft furnishings. The view from the large arched stone mullioned living room window straight up the loch is truly spectacular: a perfect seat to while away the afternoon reading a good novel, or watching for the legendary Loch Ness Monster.

The gorgeous master bedroom features another massive stone mullioned arched window overlooking the Cloister Gardens, the turrets and towers of the Abbey, and the mountains beyond. Watching the stars at night from the comfort of your bed through this fantastic window is a magical experience. King-sized antique brass and iron bed, Victorian oak church pew, luxurious bed linens, choice of feather or fibre pillows, to ensure total relaxation and comfort for the duration of your stay.Read more

Additional Location Information

The Highland club is in Fort Augustus in the recently converted Benedictine Abbey, which was originally the Fort.
The Architecture and history are absorbing, but step outside to see why it all happened here; the abbey is on the foot of Loch Ness with stunning views towards Inverness. One one side the Caledonian Canal with 7 locks bringing craft into the Loch, and on the other side the River Tarff.
The village is right outside the Highland Club gates and has good restaurants and pubs with canalside seating to watch boats from all over the world coming through the locks.
Follow the loch up either side to Inverness or follow the Great Glen Way to Fort William and Ben Nevis for a climb, but first try out the Abseiling, Canoeing and many other activities locally and at the Great glen Water Park
There is something for everyone at Loch Ness
See you soon
