Glendoe Estate on the shore of Loch Ness is home to two of our cottages, Kilcuimen and Lower Glendoe Cottage. Both enjoy some of the best views of the loch and are walking distance from Fort Augustus
Welcome to Kilchuimen, a newly-built, luxury four-bedroomed house overlooking the southern end of Loch Ness.
Completed in September 2019 the property, which sleeps up to eight people, has been created with you in mind and is beautifully decorated and furnished throughout, borrowing colours and textures from the Scottish Highlands which surrounds the house and grounds.
Just a short walk from the bustling and historic village of Fort Augustus, Kilchuimen is a picture-perfect substantial country cottage, ideally located to take advantage of the glorious Scottish landscape and the many activities nearby.
Kilchuimen is situated on Glendoe Estate, a traditional working Scottish estate which has been in the Vernon family for over 50 years.
A warm Highland welcome awaits you on the banks of Loch Ness.
Kilchuimen has four double bedrooms, two located on the ground floor and two on the first floor.
