About this property

No.2 The Old Convent is a one bedroom ground floor apartment.
The Old Convent has been lovingly renovated to a high standard keeping a lot of the original features such as the granite stone wall but adding modern touches such as central heating and double glazing.
The living area is spacious but cosy with a log burner for those chilly winter evenings. The main area is open plan with dividing wall into the kitchen which has all mod cons.
There are two steps up into the apartment and two steps from the living area down to a hallway which leads to the bathroom and bedroom.

A fabulously presented apartment. If we weren’t in such a lovely part of the world we would’ve happily stayed inside for the entire time we were there!

Best Honeymoon we could have imagined!

We had a brilliant time staying at the beautiful No. 2 holiday apartment at The Old Convent. We had planned to go abroad for our honeymoon but decided to stay in the UK fairly last-minute, which turned out to be a great decision! The apartment had been done up to an exceptional standard which made it feel very luxurious and special. It was also very well equipped with everything we needed, and more. Chris and Felicity were so hospitable and friendly, and had lots of suggestions for things to see and do. The area of course was beautiful. We did great day trips and walks in the surrounding Glens and the Isle of Skye. We were a bit unlucky with the weather, but this didn't matter as we enjoyed relaxing in the apartment so much anyway. We absolutely recommend staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Felicity Rogers

We, Chris & Felicity are local and have lived in The Old Convent since 1994. We managed to buy this beautiful old building in 2009 and have been lovingly renovating it to a (we hope) very high standard keeping a lot of the original features but adding some modern and quirky touches.

Why they chose this property

The Old Convent is in the picturesque village of Fort Augustus on the southern tip of Loch Ness and is geographically the centre of the Highlands. We are surrounded by beautiful scenery and an abundance of wildlife plus the odd castle or two! Fort Augustus has all the amenities you may need.
