Inveroich has been a much loved family home for over sixty years and the present owners would like to share it with like minded, caring couples and small parties who would appreciate its charm, character and quality.
The property is situated in a unique and prime location at the head of Loch Ness. It enjoys uninterrupted and breathtaking views, being situated beside Loch Ness, the Caledonian Canal and the River Oich. Steeped in history, Inveroich was built as the Barrack Master's House for the old fort and is reputed to be the oldest house in Fort Augustus. A pre 1770 plan, reveals that this cottage was 'a keeping place for the malt', for the adjoining Brew House.
At the end of a no-through road, the house is within easy walking distance of Fort Augustus and all local amenities. There are pubs and tea shops, a park, tennis courts and a huge choice of walks through forestry land, along the canal tow path or up in the hills. Loch and river fishing are readily available, together with boat and fishing trips on Loch Ness.
Inveroich is decorated and furnished to an exceptionally high standard. The rooms are all light, airy and spacious and both bedrooms, the kitchen and the sitting room all boast uninterrupted views of the garden, looking across to the historical Fort Augustus Abbey.
The house sits within a large, very private and well kept walled garden.
There is ample private parking within the grounds of the property.
With storage and convector heating and secondary/double glazing, the Malt House is a cosy, warm and welcoming place to stay.
There are feature fireplaces in the double bedroom, kitchen and sitting room and all the rooms are well proportioned. The kitchen is well equipped, with a good quantity of china and glass, cutlery and cooking utensils.
The rooms are well proportioned with central heating or storage heaters as well as original feature fireplaces.
All cleaning materials are provided as well as hand soap, tissues and toilet rolls.

An outstanding property in an idyllic setting on the Caledonian Canal. Amanda and Peter were superb hosts in every respect, from introduction to the accommodation to suggestions for trips and facilities in Fort Augustus and chatting in the lovely garden as we came and went. Thank you both very much ...

Maybe the cleanest property I've ever stayed at. Location was perfect. We visited Isle of Skye, Cairngorms, Fort William and Glencoe.
