In the heart of the Highlands, this luxe apartment is perfect for a couples’ retreat. Housed in a converted Benedictine monastery, you’ll be surrounded by 20 acres of private gardens on the shores of Loch Ness. The home has Scottish hunting lodge vibes throughout, with brown leather sofas and antler chandeliers in the living room, and chic tartan prints in the bedrooms.
