This property was a favorite in Scotland. The attention to detail and how well appointed the property is was impressive. It is super clean, comfortable and nice. The beds were the best of our entire trip.

Wonderful house just outside of Inverness. Located in Croy, this small suburb of Inverness offered beautiful views of the distant mountains and surrounding farm land. The house was clean, well laid out for a rental, with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms outside of the larger city, and provided not only a comfortable space to refuge for each day, but also a comfortable neighborhood to stroll around in the evening. We found especially nice the host providing some breakfast sweets and cereals to start our day, plus coffee and teas to complete the morning routine. Beds were comfortable, areas to sit and gather to discuss the days adventures were inviting as well. Laundry facilities were also available. I especially enjoyed the outdoor space, with small table overlooking the garden. A nice sitting area to enjoy the cool morning air while sipping tea. The neighborhood also has a small cafe that can easily be walked to. While the location was ideal, its distance to Inverness was a small challenge requiring taxi service to and from as it was too far to walk, but for those who have their own transportation, this won’t be an issue. The location of the home and its charm more than made up for this extra planning.

Luxury hotel with all the comforts of home
We were blown away with our stay! From our check in, which included a message letting us know it was ready early, to all the little special touches around this home, this vacation rental far exceeded our expectations. It was spotless and had a fantastic layout that gave us the space my family of 6 needed as we continue our trek through part of Europe. It is a little ways out of Inverness but half the fun of staying in Scotland is exploring the area! We wished we were able to stay more than a night and highly recommend this home to anyone in the area looking for a comfortable home base. Communication was fantastic the entire time! If we are back in the inverness area we will be staying here!

Thoughtful hosts
From the moment we stepped inside we felt at home. Well appointed with little extras to make us feel welcome and special. Excellent communication with hosts. Our only regret was we only stayed one night. Highly recommend.
