Sobre esta propriedade

Best views of Loch Ness - Historic Abbey - Short-break and Last Minute Discounts

  • Great News - a piscina está aberta novamente - foi fechada por mais de um ano após um incêndio (na sauna), mas agora tudo foi restaurado e está funcionando de novo.

    Gruinyards é um impressionante apartamento de dois quartos em um mosteiro histórico com provavelmente as melhores vistas de Loch Ness de qualquer lugar. Está elegantemente decorado e lhe dará um feriado verdadeiramente memorável.

    Gruinyards é um apartamento de férias único no terceiro andar do antigo mosteiro dentro da histórica Abadia em Fort Augustus na ponta do Loch Ness. Com janelas em três lados, desfruta de algumas das vistas mais espetaculares do Loch Ness a serem encontradas em qualquer lugar, desde o conforto da sala de estar. Gruinyards está lindamente decorado com muitas características originais e tem dois quartos generosos, mas pode dormir 6 com o uso do confortável sofá-cama na sala de estar ou o confortável Double Aerobed no quarto principal.


    A sala de jantar de plano aberto tem altos tectos inclinados e uma enorme janela de pedra que oferece vistas deslumbrantes ao longo do Loch Ness. Há também vistas sobre as colinas a leste e a abadia clausura ao sul. A sala tem uma área de cozinha totalmente equipada e uma mesa de jantar de carvalho que pode ser estendida para o assento 8. O apartamento tem internet Wi-Fi ilimitado (detalhes de login fornecidos quando você chega) e há uma grande TV com uma grande variedade de DVDs, bem como uma seleção de jogos, mapas e guias e uma base de Ipod.

    O quarto principal espaçoso também tem tectos altos e vistas em dois lados. É lindamente brilhante e arejado e possui um magnífico en-suite com um banho de rolo com banho de perna com vista para urubu Borlum Hill.

    O apartamento também tem um quarto twin muito confortável, um segundo banheiro e um sofá-cama na sala de estar. Alternativamente, há um auto-inflável duplo Aerobed disponível no quarto principal, para que ele possa ser usado como um quarto familiar muito espaçoso com a conveniência adicional de que a cama extra pode ser deixada durante toda a sua estadia. Roupa de cama, toalhas, aquecimento e electricidade estão todas incluídas, e um berço e cadeira também estão disponíveis no apartamento, sem custo adicional. No entanto, há uma pequena taxa adicional para o uso do sofá-cama ou do Aerobed.

    ATENÇÃO: Existem 75 passos até Gruinyards e, embora a visão quando você chegar faz valer a pena o esforço, por favor, considere isso, se você tiver mobilidade reduzida.

    Como convidado no apartamento, você pode fazer uso de todas as instalações do Highland Club. Além de poder passear pela maravilhosa abadia gótica e claustros, há uma piscina aquecida em uma antiga capela, juntamente com sauna e banho de vapor. Existe também uma academia bem equipada, tênis, badminton, croquet, churrasqueira e pesca no Loch Ness, todos disponíveis nos adoráveis ​​jardins do lochside. Além disso, há um salão club com snooker, tênis de mesa e futebol de mesa.

    No meio do Canal Caledoniano, equidistante de Inverness e Fort William, Gruinyards é uma base perfeita para explorar as Terras Altas da Escócia. Está idealmente localizado, não só para Nessie visando e explorando Loch Ness, mas também para escalar Ben Nevis, numerosas cachoeiras dramáticas, passeios impressionantes nas reservas naturais Glen Affric e Glen Nevis, as ruínas românticas do Castelo Urquhart e do Canal Caledoniano. No entanto, uma vez que você está lá, você pode simplesmente querer relaxar olhando a vista e aproveitando os maravilhosos arredores.


    BREAKS BREVE
    Estamos felizes em fazer reservas de curta duração (menos de uma semana) ao longo do ano. A opção de reserva on-line está disponível apenas para estadias de 4 noites ou mais, mas podemos levar 2 ou 3 reservas noturnas também.

    Se você quiser ficar por menos de quatro noites, entre em contato conosco diretamente para obter um preço para esses períodos de estadia. Como guia, 2 noites irão funcionar em cerca de 65% da taxa semanal e 3 noites de 75%. No entanto, pedimos que considere ficar mais tempo, não só porque é melhor valor, mas também porque, uma vez que você chega, posso prometer que não vai querer sair!

Short but sweet!

Great location and property. We enjoyed the views from the family room. The bedrooms were comfortable and clean. The only complaint was that when we checked in the rooms smelled musty but once we aired them by opening the windows, it was fine in a few hours.

Absolutely amazing property!

We were excited about the place from the pictures, and the reality was even more amazing. We loved the location, the views, and the unit itself had everything we could’ve asked for. Parking was super easy, everything was very secure, clean and welcoming. Thank you Jonathan for such a great experience and we will definitely be back!

Well worth the climb!

Great position and views, nice little town with locks and loch, good walks. Property well furnished, attentive owner, friendly staff. Good facilities (pool etc) in the complex, all well kept. Bedrooms very different sizes - tough decision if you're using both.

A dream

We had the most memorable time at the Gruinyards! It is the most beautiful and magical place we have ever stayed. Everything in the flat and on the monastery grounds was perfection. Nothing can beat the view of Loch Ness from the massive windows. It was pure poetry. Thank you, Jonathan!!

very interesting property

It was a unique experience. Nothing like staying in what feels like a castle. The small town there was hopping on the weekend. We prepared meals and did laundry. Walked some of the trails on the grounds. A nice home base to visit the Highlands. The floors of the outer structure

Beware of stairs

Alright my mother is 74 and aunt 68 and in good shape but hauling our luggage 6 flights of stairs was a challenge. Just be prepared to pack an overnight bag and you'll be happier. You have to make reservations for the pool but the view was amazing.

Incredible property

Spectacular property in an ideal location. The Abbey felt magical - my daughter said she felt like she was staying at Hogwarts. The amenities were perfect for a family vacation. The apartment was well stocked with everything we could have needed to make our stay comfortable and fun. The view of Loch Ness and the surrounding hills was unbeatable. All shops and restaurants were within easy walking distance and the location was a great central one to see lots in the highlands. We easily did a day trip to the Isle of Skye. Highly recommend for a family trip!

Abbey stay

Great location!! Accommodations were nice. Could have used a few more towels for the stay. Pool and sauna were very nice. A bit disappointed with the sign up process. We signed up for a specific time. Thought we would be the only family there based upon the information when signing up. There were 14 other people in the room. Not as relaxing would like to been. Everyone in town was quite charming.

Felt like a dream

This property starts out a bit mysterious and then becomes a place you will never want to leave.The beauty of the Abbey itself is otherworldly. If you've ever wanted the experience of staying in a castle, you might just get your wish if you stay here. While the apartment was modern and full of all the comforts of home (including super cozy beds), you will feel like you're in another time altogether when you look out those incredible windows or walk the hallways to access the pool or play chess in the courtyard. This place is special. Our family didn't want to leave after our 3 days spent here. The stairs will make you rethink running back up to the apartment for that jacket you forgot to grab. But they were so worth it! Lots of restaurants and activities in walking distance.

Stunning location. Stunning surroundings

I took my partner and kids 7 and 9 and our friend. The drive to Gruinyards from Glasgow was perfect. Stunning scenery. The monastery itself is a beautiful building. The apartment in question is a good few minutes walk from the car park, up 70+ stairs. I know this is mentioned in the ad, but if like us you’re taking shopping up it is hard work! The apartment is sizeable and there’s plenty to keep you occupied. The place was clean and airy. The views are unbelievable, particularly the Loch. In walking distance is a small village with everything you’ll need. Would definitely recommend!!!

Historic hideaway

We loved our stay in the historic hideaway on Lochness. It was lovely to sit high above in the gorgeous abbey and view the lake and hills around. The town was very close and easy to get basic necessities from groceries to Chinese takeaway. Hiking the trail on the hill across the lake was a real highlight of my time with its rolling hills and sheep. The roads around the area were hair raising as an American driver and the isle of Skye had the craziest single lane two way roads so it made day trips longer then expected but in general it was a great launching location for many highland sights! Check in was fine but more complex then expected since serval companies rent out spaces with different representatives so you have to find the specific person with your apartment. Overall we loved this peaceful hideaway and the apartment was relaxing and well equipped and more spacious then pictured!

Wonderful Stay in Fort Augustus

Two adult friends, my teen daughter, and I had a short but delightful stay in Gruinyards. The apartment was comfortable, clean, and well-outfitted with a gorgeous view, and the Abbey was a serene, beautiful, and interesting place to explore. (Our only regret is that we had just a single night there.) We ate a delicious dinner at the Boathouse overlooking Loch Ness. (Make sure to secure a reservation. We didn't have one and were lucky they were able to squeeze us in!) Jonathan was very responsive and a superb resource for some of my questions about pre- and post-stay travel times and routes. We also appreciated the very detailed information he included about the property and Fort Augustus. If we're ever able to return to Scotland, we'll definitely stay here again (and for longer).

Gorgeous apartment-fantastic week

I have just returned from a week staying at Gruinyards with my 18 yr old son and his mate. We all had an amazing time. The apartment has the most stunning view of the loch and I could just have sat in the lounge and looked at the view all week. The apartment was spotlessly clean and incredibly well equipped and the en-suite bathroom is superb. We visit the Highland Club every year and so know the area and enjoyed walking as usual, hired bikes in Fort William ( so disappointed can no longer hire bikes in the local hardware store) and clay pigeon shooting at Rothiemurchus. The boathouse restaurant was closed for refurb unfortunately but we ate in The Bothy across the road despite the poor reviews but we had an excellent meal. Can’t wait for our next trip and hope Gruinyards is available as it is the nicest apartment we have stayed in at the Club.

Perfect Vacation in Scotland

Visiting Scotland with my wife and three children (14, 12, 10). We spent the first 1/3 of our trip at the Abbey and we were not disappointed. The rental was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. But more than that, it was very unique… can’t say I’ve ever stayed anywhere that was so steeped in history. The view from the 4th story windows of the loch, mountains, and abbey grounds were truly beautiful. We enjoyed exploring the building and grounds so much that the kids were disappointed if I kept them off-property too late - they were huge fans of the oversized chess game in the courtyard. We found ourselves regretting our departure after only 4 nights. Location-wise, we planned activities between Fort William and Inverness for this leg of the journey and enjoyed the drive to each. We even picked up a few unplanned stops along the way as we drove along Loch Ness. Locally, it was an easy walk from the abbey to Fort Augustus. We were able to find dinner, groceries, and shopping within a very short stroll. We would definitely book again. This was one of my personal favorite rentals I have ever secured through VRBO.

Fabulous!

The apartment was spacious, modern, nicely decorated and clean. All communication was clear and check in was easy. Upon arrival, the manager showed us around the property and the apartment and answered all of our questions. There were cookies, coffee, and tea in the cupboard and milk in the fridge. There were books, DVDs, local guide books, board games, etc as well. It felt like we were at home. Best of all, because it is located on the fourth floor of the Abbey, the apartment has spectacular views of Loch Ness and the surrounding property. We were beside Loch Ness and the canal. It was a very short walk to the pretty village of Fort Augustus and its local pubs, restaurants and shops. We would recommend the nearby Boathouse Lochside restaurant, the Lovat Brasserie and the Loch Inn. Fort Augustus is very centrally located for exploring the Highlands. Essentially, everything was exactly as outlined in the description and photos. Except it was better. We would definitely stay again!

Living in History!

We stayed at the Loch Ness Abbey for 4 nights and this will rate as one of the best, most historic VRBO’s we’ve stayed at. It was a bit difficult to find but our host showed up at the abbey and gave us a tour and then showed us to our room. Luis G was an outstanding host for us. We stayed on the fourth floor of the old bell tower and we looked directly out over Loch Ness. Nothing better that this view! The apartment had everything we needed and was supplied with some nice coffee’s and tea’s when we arrived. If there is a downside it would be the amount of stairs to get to our apartment but that was made very clear to us prior to arrival and so we had no issues at all. The game room was a wonderful place to just sit and relax and play a game of pool. if you love living in history and overlooking a beautiful loch, then this place is for you. I would recommend to anyone staying in Loch Ness and the Fort Augustus area. One other thing to mention is the grocery store and all of the canal businesses are just a few minutes walk. That would include the Loch Ness boat tour ticket building! 10/10 for our family!

Amazing Place to Stay

The apartment was spacious for the 5 of us & was clean & well stocked. There were dvds, games, books, paddles & racquets, balls, etc. The beds were very comfortable & I had the best sleeps of our vacation. The bathrooms were spacious & the master bedroom was lovely though unfortunately we had to give it up to our son & his family. :( The service from the Highland Club was very quick & efficient. We wanted extra towels for swimming & they were delivered right away. We also asked for a deep frying pan, as the one supplied was quite grotty, and it was also delivered right away. As for the atmosphere of staying in an old abbey, it was awesome, especially walking the cloisters. We used the swimming pool every day and had a few rousing games of table tennis & pool. Walking the area was easy and scenic & we even managed to find a sheep farm with plenty of young lambs running about. We were also fortunate enough to catch a cricket game on the lawn of the club. There are a couple of things to be aware of though. The hot water in the apartment is extremely hot & can scald quickly so you have to be very careful. It might be an idea to reduce the temperature setting, especially if children are using the space. Also, the floor tiles in the swimming pool change area are treacherous when wet. Other than those 2 issues we had a wonderful time & would highly recommend The Gruinyards.
