Our apartments and cottages at Abbey Holidays Loch Ness are self-catering, which means you can choose whether to eat in or eat out. There is a local Spar shop in the village, where you can pick up all the groceries you need. But on days when you’d prefer to dine out, we have plenty of options in the local area. From the Boathouse Restaurant right here at the abbey, to the many restaurants and places to eat and drink in Fort Augustus. Here are just a few of our favourites…

Built originally as the abbey’s boathouse for water pursuits, the building has now been converted into a lochside restaurant with stunning views of Loch Ness.
