Absolute gem of a rental unit. Large neo-gothic windows in the living room just give it a very serene feeling. Very confortable unit with all you need. Arrival was easy and we had a tour of the property. Incredible facilities: pool, sauna, outside chess, inside billiard room, etc. The grounds looking out on Loch Ness are pristine. We had a small problem with the gas furnace which stopped working once or twice, but the staff were quick to respond and fix things. Small downside is that Fort Augustus is relatively far from anywhere you will want to visit in the Highlands. But I think this is true of anywhere in the Highlands as everything is 1-2 hours by car. But in the end, I would come back to this place, and this unit, anytime.

We had an perfect stay at the Talisker apartement. The building nestled in a park on the shore of the Loch Ness is just amazing. The apartment was gorgeous and we enjoyed the beautiful pool, the tennis court, the gym... The staff was really kind and helpful. Communication really easy. We adored it! Highly recommanded.

Amazing place in a beautiful location.This was a family get together after a long 4 years apart and it was worth the wait,it included 3 generations and all ages and it suited all of us…especially the children.The only negative was the stairs for us oldies The boat trips were only 5 minutes away and the locks were a lovely place to relax and have a coffee.We always judge a place by asking would we return? and we all said yes!

Amazing campus. Beautiful little town. Plenty to eat and drink. Good base of operations to stay and take day trips from. No elevator was tough for a party of six with two 70+ year olds and luggage. Great place to stay at. Charles was extremely kind and helpful. Gave us a 30 minute tour to acquaint ourselves with the place.

Great apartment

It was a lovely apartment, all the necessities you need, however could have done with a better clean upon someone arriving (under sofas/beds). Upon saying that, I would definitely stay/recommend here again. Pool was great, kids had a fantastic time exploring the grounds.
