A wonderful location but the appt could be better.

Pros: The Old Monastery is a lovely place to stay, and the location is excellent. The Games room, pool, table tennis etc are great for rainy days and after a full day out looking for Nessy. A short walk to the shops which are great. Lots of takeaways and restaurants. The roll top bath was nice, and good water pressure in the shower. Lovely Artwork on the walls and very homely. The downstair bedroom area is much bigger than upstairs. It was very quiet and we enjoyed being there, however if I stay again it would be in another appt.

Cons: The lounge/dining room and kitchen are quite small and cramped. In the master bedroom there is no chair to sit and do your hair and makeup in front of the mirror, and it would be lovely to have a T.V in the bedroom. The security light in the reception is faulty and all through the night it comes on and off, shining into the master bedroom. I complained and the chap said he spoke to the management company but nothing was done in the 5 nights we were there. The website states several welcome items would be waiting for us, but in reality we got one bottle of prosecco and a pack of biscuits. The pool is nice but a pain in the backside having to book a slot for an hour. It would be nice to just turn up, but I guess too many apartments for that. The worse thing was the mattress in the master bedroom, it was like sleeping on concrete. I found a spare duvet and put that under the sheet which helped with the numbness, but we thought it was very uncomfortable. The bedding and duvet itself was very nice and in general the furnishings are of good quality.

Pros: Very cosy and warm. Tastefully decorated and has all the amenities you'd ever need. Complimentary tea and coffee. Excellent location easy walk into town. Access to a swimming pool on site and tennis courts. Mark from the property management company couldn't have been more helpful. 100 percent recommend a stay. Thank you to the owner. Suitable with small children.

Cons: N/A

Great location

Pros: Loved the location on the banks of Loch Ness and the history of the building.

Cons: Photographs make the living area look much bigger and brighter than it actually is. Pool etc run by another company and need to be booked in advance and paid for.

Pros: Amazing facilities. It is a castle stay and a great experience for Scotland visit. Clean rooms, clean facilities, host is available and accessible on WhatsApp also. Quick turnaround for requests to iron, pool towels, washing pods etc.

Cons: WiFi is not accessible in all the rooms which is very inconvenient. Complained to the host, suggested them to get a repeater for the ground floor, and they said they would recommend that to the owner. Hopefully next guests have better experience.

Prachtig verblijf aan de oevers van Loch Ness

Pros: De omgeving was schitterend. Ideaal gelegen om alle uitstappen te doen in de buurt. We verbleven in the Moat house, en hadden alles wat we nodig hadden. Als het mooi weer is s avonds, is het de perfecte plaats voor een leuke wandeling aan het meer. Ook de bbq faciliteiten in de tuin waren een leuke extra. De ontvangst was perfect. Fernando was enthousiast en liet ons alles zien, alles was duidelijk. Ook kan je hen gemakkelijk bereiken tijdens het verblijf, en helpen ze je waar mogelijk is. Ik zou hier zeker terugkomen, het was een super leuke vakantie in 'the abbey'.

Cons: De reservatie voor het zwembad is lastig -vaak direct volgeboekt s avonds. Misschien iets langere openingsuren voorzien. Ook waren de gordijnen vrij licht en is er geen extra verduistering in de kamers. Maar laten we dat een detail noemen.
