Rumah tumpangan di Fort Augustus

The Lovat is superb. The staff were all lovely and so nice to see the owners are truly hands on. We had the privilege to stay in the grand master suite which was spotless and beautifullu presented. However, what stood out was the food it was delightful. The Lovat needs to be on every foodies stop.

What a wonderful place to stay. The rooms modern and spacious with towels, tea and coffee and hair dryer provided. The rooms were warm, and had lovely window views of Fort Augustus. The little outside space is a wonderful addition to the room, with tables and chairs which looks over the canal. The communication was 10/10 and you had every detail needed upon arrival. You are right in the centre of the village. With a few places to choose from to eat, all of which looked fab. We ate at the Bothy which had wonderful service and sold great pub grub, and was family friendly. There is a petrol station near by with a shop for anything extra you might want. During the day there are lots of lovely places to have lunch and grab a coffee from. We are in the Canal cafe which was lovely breakfast and coffee and a delightful shop too. We also had soup and a panini in little café opposite which was lovely too. I would throughly recommend using the cruise Loch Ness boat trip from here too. The tour guides were fab and the trip lasted a good 50 min. You can grab a drink and snack on this trip too. Parking - there is a car park near by. However, opposite the hotel is marked parking which is free to use.

First of all, the name of the property on this TripAdvisor listing is incorrectly titled ”Loch Ness Gate House” when it should be ”Loch Ness Guest House.” Hopefully that can be fixed so people can find it. This is a quirky little property in the extremely quaint Fort Augustus on the banks of Loch Ness. It feels like a cross between a B&B and an AirBnB. Door code gets sent by email before your arrival so you can let yourself into the building and go to your unlocked room, which has the room keys on the bed. Yet they offer a decent continental breakfast in the morning (get there early for best selections!). Rooms were nothing fancy, but very comfortable. We slept very well. The property is a very short walk into ”town”, which is arrayed along the Caledonian Canal and its locks, and which is home to a couple of pubs offering a good dinner when you get hungry. We were in Fort Augustus because we were making a short venture into the Scottish Highlands. We wanted to see Loch Ness and take a short tour boat cruise, and Fort Augustus offered a good chance to do that without driving all the way to Inverness. There aren't a lot of lodging options nearby, and we were very happy with the quality and value of our stay of the Loch Ness Guest House.
