Well suited to holiday-let or second-home investors
Set within the historic St. Benedicts Abbey, Flat 2, The Moat House is a two-level, freehold apartment offering striking character and proven holiday appeal. The property occupies 1,453 sq ft across two floors, with three double bedrooms on the lower level and a bright living and dining area on the upper level that looks out over the Abbey cricket pitch. Original features—high ceilings, sash windows and stone Gothic Revival detailing—combine with a fitted kitchen and contemporary bathrooms to create comfortable, authentic accommodation.
This apartment is well suited to second-home buyers or investors seeking a holiday-let in a high-profile Highland location. The Highland Club provides substantial on-site facilities including an indoor heated pool, spa, gym, tennis court, restaurant and boat moorings, supporting holiday occupancy and premium nightly rates. The freehold tenure and generous internal size add practical value for owners and managers.
Important practical points are clear: the layout is multi-story with bedrooms on the lower floor, which may not suit those with limited mobility. Mobile and broadband coverage in the village is limited (3G/4G/5G patchy), and the wider area is classified as very deprived — factors that may affect year-round local services and some running costs. There is no flood risk recorded. Buyers should also note communal retirement classification in the wider site information and consider management rules for holiday use.
Overall, Major’s Apartment offers rare period character, generous space and turnkey access to resort-style amenities. It will suit buyers wanting a distinctive Highland retreat with strong holiday-letting potential, provided they accept the village’s connectivity limits and the apartment’s multi-level plan.
