Beautiful, especially when the sun comes through. Felt extra lucky when an orange cat just walked right up to me asking for pets and rolled around in the grass 🥰 *open to the public for free The Beauly Priory is right on the edge of the town of Beauly. It is a beautiful ruin that can be visited at any time. The stone is red instead of the usual grey. There is a small section that is locked that has some very old graves from the 1400's. The grounds around the Priory are also nice to explore. Set in the lovely village of Beauly, with the great local shops and cafè's, this is a great link to the past. Free to visit and not busy. Well maintained and cared for. A very relaxed visit. Something to visit if you're hill-walked out, out weathered in. Wheelchair accessible, just. A local river walk just next to it, it is a nice way to spend 20 - 30 minutes. While wandering around small villages, we saw this on Google maps. This was the perfect place to go at dusk. There was no wait or other people visiting the site. There are many plaques around to explain where everything used to be in the building such as the holy water bowl. If you're a lover of history and like spooky things, come here. This place holds a history of Hundreds of years. And the structure still survives with its pride well maintained and will make you think about the stories of that building can tell us. A charming little spot for a break. The 13th-century abbey is an impressive sight, with gravestones dating back over 400 years. Browse the quaint shops, enjoy a cosy café, and take a leisurely stroll along the river. Well worth pausing for at least a short visit.
