Loch Ness Abbey "The highland club"

[Zero]

Our second desination was this abbey situated at the end of loch ness aka - the big pond :). It is currently being redeveloped by people into some swanky ass appartments. And at inverness airport i found a model of it on display. I wasnt best pleased with the ideas they had for it ill tell you.

As for the building as it is , i was very impressed not just with the fact it looked cool but also because the views were brilliant from the top of the bell tower.

Although you cant really see it on the resized pic as i was taking this photo security walked into the door at the end and i caught it on film, At that point he asked us do we work there. We said no and alas we were asked to leave
