It sits on a hillside above the town - one of two cottages built originally for foresters about 40 years ago which back onto the edge of Fort Augustus but face towards the Forest of Inchnacardoch. Walkers disappear along miles and miles of trails into the forest, while, in the early morning, deer emerge silently out of it to graze at the edge of the cottage's enclosed grass garden. This is a quiet and peaceful setting but, just half a mile down the hill, there are shops, hotels,restaurants, a famous Benedictine Abbey to visit and have lunch, and the interesting spectacle of boats passing through the very heart of Fort Augustus on The Caledonian Canal to reach Loch Oich and the sea. Pony-trekking, golf and fishing are available locally. Bed-linen and towels are available for hire.
Pets are welcome.
