About this property

Luxury Self Catering Apartment with Swimming Pool in the Grounds of a Monastery on Loch Ness

Caladh (meaning 'Haven' in Gaelic) is a very large one bedroom apartment and is the epitome of luxury. A stunning living room with views down Loch Ness and the quality and comfort of its furnishings with their traditional Scottish influences, make this is a retreat within a retreat. Don't be misled by the description 'one-bedroom' ... this is an exceptionally spacious property.
The flat's large entrance hall is accessed from the old cloisters and has a heated 'boot -room' area (for those wet days that can happen in Scotland) and toilet/shower room.

As you enter the body of the flat from this entrance hall there is a well-equipped open-plan kitchen on your left (including a Nespresso coffee machine for coffee-heads) and, on your right, steps lead to a raised double-height living room where two large Gothic-style windows allow spectacular views of Loch Ness beyond manicured lawns and mature trees. The immediate sensation is stillness and silence. (You just know that you can write that book in this place)

The luxurious master bedroom (all fabrics and furnishings are from Anta Scotland) is situated on a mezzanine level. Large double-height curtains are opened and closed from the bedside so that you can be cocooned in comfort at night and view Loch Ness from your bed first thing in the morning.

The bathroom is opulent with both a large shower and a large bath (with top quality Hansgrohe fittings) as well as under floor heating.

Adjoining dressing area with two large double wardrobes and a separate 'snug' room ( with a second TV and internet access) complete the picture.

Whatever your need ... the perfect romantic break. the place to celebrate a special wedding anniversary, to 'retreat' and recharge, write that book, climb a Munro, get fit, chill out and reflect on life ... there is no place better than this apartment.

Our property manager will meet you on arrival and show you to your accommodation where a welcome pack will be waiting for you.

Blissful relaxation
Amazing place, totally out of this world, perfect to get away from the busy everyday life. The monastery is magical, walking around the beautiful corridors, the courtyard, or just walking out to the lake, the whole place is so serene and blissful. The apartment has huge windows overlooking the lake, the place is very warm, cozy, perfect to snuggle up with a good book and tea. The stars at night, reflecting on the lake, just gorgeous! The location is perfect to explore the Highlands, lots of hiking routes and shops are nearby. Absolutely would recommend this place and definitely will return!

A pleasant stay in remarkable accommodation
Es waren wunderschöne Tage und es gibt nicht vie auszusetzen. Lediglich die Pölster im Wohnzimmer verlieren ständig Federn, welche sich dann im Zimmer verteilen. Die Einrichtung ist allgemein schon etwas älter, aber sauber und funktionsfähig.

Great place in a great location
After two postponed attempts, due to the world falling apart, we eventually made it and are we glad we did. We were astonished by the size and quality of the apartment which on their own would have been perfect but with the availability amenities on site this was beyond expectations. We were sorry to leave but hope to return in the future.

Perfect!
We have visited the highlands every year for 20+ years, and this is the best place we have stayed. The apartment was clean, updated and very comfortable even for a week long stay. We would definitely return.
