Felicity and Chris were fabulous hosts. The Apartment was immaculate and beautiful.It's centrally located with many great restaurants. We loved Beaufort pizza and Monster Fish Co. Fabulous food. The highlight was the precious Highland coo down the path and at a nearby farm. Overall, an absolutely lovely stay!

Among the best in Scotland!

We've been traveling all over Scotland for about 2 weeks, and the Old Convent has been by far the best stay we've had. It was top notch from check-in to check-out, with great recommendations, friendly hosts, and absolutely stunning accomodations. We couldn't have been happier!

A really lovely apartment with everything you could want for a relaxing stay. Really good sized comfortable bedrooms, a well equiped kitchen and cosy living room. The hosts ( Felicity and Chris) are lovely and really engaging . We would highly recommend this place as it really is one of the best we have stayed in.

What a fantastic self catering apartment. Hosts Felicity and Chris were there to greet us on our arrival and were very helpful with suggestions of things to do. The apartment is exceptionally luxurious and there is everything you need with some really nice touches, like having firefighters, kindling and logs for the log burner. Property is spotlessly clean. Approx 15 minute walk takes you to the canal and views up the loch are stunning. Can’t wait to return to Fort Augustus and to The Old Convent.

Wonderful base for exploring around Loch Ness

The care that has been put into this property really shows, in both form and function. The hosts are welcoming, warm, and had awesome recommendations of day trips for us to do. We had the most amazing time exploring the loch and we owe a large part of that to the old convent and our hosts. :)

Fantastic stay at the Old Convent (No 4)! The house was very easy to find. The rooms and facilities were spotless. Chris and Felicity were super sweet and their recommendation were spot on! Communications were easy through the VRBO app. We’d stay here again, but for a longer time, in the future.

What a wonderful property and hosts! The apartment was well-appointed with an amazing kitchen, living room and 2 bedrooms. So comfy and so clean! Chris gave us the tour and offered so much pertinent information for getting the most out of the area. And being within walking distance from Loch Ness was a definite amenity. Additionally, the location is within an hour to hour-and-a-half of numerous Highland must-see sites. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will return in the future. Highly recommended!

Loved our stay!

Felicity and Chris were amazing hosts. They were very knowledgeable about the area and anywhere that we wanted to travel. They met us at our vehicle upon arrival for introductions, and then gave us a thorough tour of our apartment so that we knew where everything was and how everything worked. The apartment was spotless, which I very much appreciate, and the renovations they have done to it are just perfect. It feels refreshed, but still has the charm that I would expect of an old building. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Absolutely excellent!

We strictly recommend this apartment! Nice atmosphere in a caringly restored historic building. One room is located wih window to teh main road and therefore a little bit louder than the other room (double bed) which is aligned to the garden. But in the night the traffic is going down to zero. The bathroom is a highlight. The kitchen is fully equipped. Only 5 min by feet you may reach the food court of Fort Augustus.

7 Star Rating in a Special Place

I wish I could give this 2 comfortable place a 7 star rating on the 5 star scale. This converted convent is as centrally located in the marvelous Scottish Highlands as one can be. Mountain scenery, lochs (especially Loch Ness) are easily accessible, as are a serviceable number of amenities. The problem with the Old Convent is that all the nearby attractions make you feel bad that you are not spending enough time enjoying this comfortable and charming lodging. It is lovingly and meticulous restored, homey, and beautifully decorated, a rarity in holiday apartments. The delightful hosts, Chris & Felicity, live on-site.

Great apartment

This was the perfect apartment to house our family while we visited western Scotland. The apartment was well equipped with everything we needed for our 3 day visit. The hosts are friendly and have one of the best welcome information packets I have experienced, with instructions on how to use everything in the apartment, menus for local restaurants, suggested places to visit.

Perfect start to our holiday

For us, the location, charm, and peaceful surroundings were exactly what we were looking for. There were many beautiful hikes within either walking distance or a short car journey. The village offered great food/drink choices for a night out, and the apartment was furnished very well if a night in was chosen. Chris and Felicity were a veritable fount of valuable information and suggestions, and were always available to answer questions. We will definitely return here on future visits!

Lovely and cosy stay in Fort Augustus

The Apartment has been so nicely, both in style and ambiente. The mix of modern and old style has been best composed. Thanks to Felicity and Chris for the opportunity to stay here and enjoy the beautiful landscape of scotland. The woodwalk was always in the morning the best start for the day and Fort Augustus with all the pubs and shops in walking distance was a big relief in the evening. Best place for daytrips to the highlands.
