Summary: This new modern home was perfectly located to allow us to enjoy Inverness proper as well as quickly access the Scottish countryside.It was clean and well furnished. Our host was helpful and attentive when we had a last minute addition to our guest list staying at the house. There was plenty of room to accommodate our family of five with one bedroom to spare.The neighborhood was quiet and the two dedicated parking spots were nice.I would highly recommend this property if you are looking to explore the Inverness area without staying in the downtown area.We felt very welcome.
