A proposito di questa appartamento struttura in affitto
No.1 & 2 The Old Convent are both ground floor apartments which have been sympathetically renovated to a very high standard but keeping some of the character and adding modern touches such as central heating, insulation and double glazing! No.3 & No.4 are first floor apartments. The Old Convent is situated in the picturesque village of Fort Augustus on the southern tip of Loch Ness, which is virtually the geographical center of the Highlands. A perfect base for exploring the spectacular scenery and amenities that the area has to offer.
We, Felicity & Chris are local and live in what was the priests quarters when the building was originally a church and are able to suggest many wonderful day trips combining superb scenic drives and walks, with castles, brochs and ruins that you probably won't find in any guide book.
Fort Augustus is the perfect place to relax with a short walk to the center of the village where you can find grocery shops, butcher, post office, ATM, petrol station and several pubs and restaurants. You can take a boat trip up Loch Ness or simply chill on the canal side watching the boats negotiate the locks!
The Old Convent was originally built as a church in 1842, then converted into a convent 'St Scholastica's Priory' in 1891, the nun's took residence in 1892 until 1922 when the remaining nun's were moved to Holme Eden Abbey. Some of the nun's are buried in the graveyard at Fort Augustus Abbey, half a mile from the convent on the shores of Loch Ness.
We are close to main road with the convent woods to rear giving you privacy, and a fantastic view of golf course and Ben Tee to front.
If you wish to bring your dog please ask first. We accept most small/medium dogs but the are not allowed in the bedroom or on the furniture. We have spare dog towels if needed.
The property is ready for guests arrival from 4pm. We ask that guests leave by 10am on day of departure as we need time to clean for next guests.
If an apartment is already booked for your preferred dates please ask as there are four apartments No.1, No.2, No.3 and No.4

A charming place tastefully renovated by the owners and toasty warm even in the middle of winter. A home away from home, only better. Super clean. A delightful highland getaway. Such a shame we had to leave just before Christmas as the tree in the living room was just lovely!

Excellent place to stay and would highly recommend it. We were in unit one and it was very spacious, clean, well appointed and comfortable!We had a bit of car / tire trouble and it was very easy to stay in touch with Felicity and Chris regarding our ever changing arrival times.They also have a lot of local knowledge to share about things to do, places to eat and how to travel the area.Can’t recommend this venue enough. If I’m ever in the area again, it’ll be the only place I stay.

We stayed at this amazing VRBO for 3 nights while touring Scotland. Chris & Felicity are the perfect hosts who have created an absolutely wonderful home away from home for their guests. The restoration work on this beautiful old convent in Fort Augustus is nothing short of gorgeous right down to the smallest of details.
The very comfortable accommodations provided everything anyone could possibly ask for including map and information books for the area. Chris & Felicity gave us with so many "special" travel suggestions for areas that we would otherwise never have known about or travelled to see...and for this we are especially grateful. Fort Augustus was the perfect location to serve as a jumping off point to visit Fort William, Isle of Skye, Inverness, Portree etc. and Felicity is extremely responsive to all inquiries from pre-booking and helping us choose which unit to select to recommendations during our travels while staying here.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Old Convent and Chris & Felicity to anyone looking to stay in the area - definitely a highlight for us while visiting Scotland.
Thank you!!!!
