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.

We had a wonderful experience at this lodging- great location and beautiful. It would be better if there was a place to eat breakfast on site.

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.
