About this property

Abbey Church 10, The Pugin

The Pugin is located on the first floor (No Lift) and it is a very spacious apartment with views across the Monastery Gardens and Loch Ness. The Pugin sleeps up to 4 people, guests can benefit of the use of a double sofa bed in the lounge. The room benefits from wonderful views over the lawns towards Loch Ness. The master bedroom has a traditional Scottish country feel with views towards Loch Ness and a large en-suite containing both a bath and a walk in shower cubicle. The second bedroom has twin beds and a drawer units and also benefits from views over the Loch. There is family bathroom off the main hallway. A short corridor leads up some stairs to a separate open plan kitchen and dining area. This room lies within the original church and has elevated views over the Atrium where you can get great views of the gothic timber hammer head beams in the ceiling above. All guests receive a Highland Club welcome pack which includes a fruit bowl, wine and Highland Club clotted cream fudge.

AC10 (The Pugin) is located on the first floor next door to AC11 (The Hanson).

The Highland Club is a collection of 4 and 5 star self catered apartments (serviced daily) set in 20 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds on the south shore of Loch Ness, also cradled by the Caledonian Canal and the River Tarff.
It occupies Grade A listed gothic buildings, originally the 1729 English fortification which became St Benedict’s Abbey. Located in the centre of The Highlands, Fort Augustus Abbey provides comfortable, private apartments as a relaxing base from which to explore Urquhart Castle, Culloden, Clava Cairns, Skye, Ben Nevis and whisky distilleries.

The Highland Club is unique, steeped as it is in centuries of Scottish history, and a special, relaxing place to stay – either on a self-catered holiday or as an owner of one of the luxury residences. Amenities exclusively for use by those who are staying with us include an indoor pool, steam and sauna, the club lounge and snooker room.

Within the grounds there is a tennis court and many other facilities including outdoor chess in the Cloister Garden, table tennis, badminton, croquet, boules, 5-a-side football and a cricket pitch with nets. The Boathouse Restaurant with its exclusive Loch side view is available both to guests and the local community alike.

Explore the grounds, walk along the shores of Loch Ness, stroll along the Caledonian Canal watching boats go by. From here the opportunities are limitless – from the more typical activities of walking, cycling, golf, sailing, fishing, shooting, archery, wow balling, ski-ing (in winter) and bird watching to the more unusual such as dog sledding and Munro Bagging.

Great range of activites, lovely apartment and great location!
We've stayed here over the easter holidays in both '23 and '24 and we've loved both stays. The wide range of activities within the highland club saw us through the rainy days while there were plenty of outdoor options in and around Fort Augustus for the nicer days. We'll be back again soon!

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
In 2003 The Santon Group, a respected developer of listed buildings, purchased the dilapidated Grade A listed buildings and grounds of St Benedict's Abbey. A £30 million conversion of the site into The Highland Club was embarked upon and finally completed in 2012.

The Santon Group is dedicated to preserving the special character and many beautiful features of the Abbey, its cloisters and the great towers that make it such a landmark. However, inside a programme of total renovation and discreet building has transformed the original spartan accommodation into 97 distinctive one, two and three bedroom apartments. In addition, there are 12 charming cottages in the grounds.

Today the austerity of monastic life has given way to the warmth of modern leisure living.

The Highland Club is managed by a team of helpful on site staff who are overseen by the ever friendly Highland Club Manager, Mark Dallas.
