The stay was terrific. We had a great time watching the loch in action from our room. Modern furnishings and great service. They have everything set up so well. It was a favourite stay on our highland travels.

Nice, clean and convenient. The room was modern and seemed new. The host gave excellent instructions about getting in the room since there are not staff on site. I would definitely recommend.

Loved this property! Check in is unique but there are very clear instructions and free parking just down the street. The restaurant is great and we sat out by the water outside. Great smoked salmon and egg breakfast. Also ate at the Old Boathouse down by the water which was great! Fort Augustus is a cute little town with little shops and restaurants. Saw the locks in action the morning that we left as well which was very cool to witness! Would stay here again for sure.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our room Loch Oich overlooked the swing bridge and 1st loch. Ideal for Loch watching. Beds comfy, ideally would have liked the extra put up bed taken down and replaced with a chair but understand that is probably a bit awkward especially as we were a short stay. Bathroom great, modern. Ample tea, coffee sachets, milk, sugar etc. Fridge. Nice decor. Everything worked. If we were staying in the area would stay here again. If cycling there is secure bike storage up the stairs, in an outside patio area.

Beautiful room! We stayed in the Loch Ness room which had a private balcony overlooking the village. Huge windows in the room as well. The chap who came to bring us more towels was kind and friendly. (It was his first day.) We stayed here after arriving in Inverness en route to Ft. William. The only downsides: Not a lot of places open for dinner. Had to eat twice at the Chinese restaurant. (Granted, it was delicious!). I wish there was an iron and ironing board.

This property was great and great location. However check in and out time is ridiculous. Can’t check in before 430pm and check out is promptly at 10. There is no staff on premises which isn’t a big deal to me but might be for others. Room was very spacious (Neptune) and comfortable.

Apart from difficulty accessing the accommodation, Management should thank the Kiwi in the restaurant for helping us make contact with Charlie. But once in and noted the code to our room was already set, the rest was easy. We had a nice view of the water etc,

Great place to stay right next to Loch Ness

Stayed for one night following completion of the NC500. Good to see Loch Ness although we missed Nessie on this occasion! Very easy check in and great facilities right in the centre of town. A few places to grab food nearby. We had a Chinese takeaway.

The people are super friendly and made our stay so perfect! The room was conveniently located to everything in the village. We had all that we needed. Had we traveled during a warmer season, we would have made use of our balcony more! We'll be back soon!
