Perfect hosts in a great property
Steve and Ginny were consummate hosts. Steve's front of house charm combined with Ginny's amazing work in the background made our stay at Dunallan one of the highlights of our Scotland tour. The property is lovely with oodles of character. Ginny's full Scottish breakfast made the perfect start to each of our days. Thank you team. Amelia says thank you to you and hello to John.

If I could give this property an 11/10 I would, it’s fantastic. My husband and I are visiting from Canada and just spent two nights at the Dunallen House while we worked our way through the distilleries in the area. Ginny and Stephen were so welcoming, I truly felt like guests in their home. Everything about the place was perfect, including the amazing breakfasts that Ginny prepared. Morning breakfasts were made even more spectacular by the great chats with Stephen while he catered to our every need. He is a giant wealth of knowledge about all things Scottish and Irish. He recommended places we had never heard of but once we went there, we were amazed. My husband even found a few extra distilleries to check out and looks like we will be buying a new suitcase to bring all the local Spey scotches home!!! If you are considering this property, don’t think, just book! You will not regret it! Thanks Ginny and Stephen for an amazing few days.

As my husband said, it makes it all worthwhile.We do hope that you can visit Dunallan on another occasion in future. With best wishes, Ginny and Stephen

Two night stay to walk the Spey River
We really enjoyed our two night stay. Stevie and Ginny were great hosts with a lot of local knowledge. The top floor suite was extremely comfortable and the luxury of a roll top bath with a view made it extra special. Nothing was too much trouble and the breakfast was really filling. There are a number of restaurants in the town, but would suggest you book in advance as they are very busy. If we ever pass close to Grantown on Spey we would definitely return.

Lovely Stay.
Delightful. Room was cosy and clean. Bed was comfy with plenty of amenities including some very nice bathrobes! We had a private bathroom across the landing from our room on the top floor which was wonderful. The was a shower and large bathtub including a fab selection of bathing products. Plentiful options for breakfast and was delicious. Thanks Stephen and Ginny for being so friendly and accommodating hosts.

Home from Home
We had a very warm welcome from Veronica and Steve. The breakfast was very good and set you up for the day. Steve gave us very informative information of what to see in the area and even provide a map. For anyone looking for a home from home you could not ask for a better place to stay. Very quiet so you get a good nights sleep ready for the next day what ever you want to do.

Wonderful experience
Wonderful experience. The hotel is run by a husband and wife team who were always present to answer any questions and provide tips on where to go and what to see. We were also presented with several options for breakfast. The guesthouse was very clean and is conveniently located at the edge of a woods, about 15 minutes drive away from inverness, and close to the whisky trail. We were a family of four, all of us were 100% satisfied with the service. Hope to be back.

Absolutely perfect and gracious welcome by both owners (and their young son). Nice home with an historic and authentic feel. Some nice treats waiting in the room. Breakfast made to order (both cold and hot options). Bedding was crisp and comfortable. Recommended a great pub across the street for dinner. You'll love this place!

Whatever you do, don't book the top floor. Ceiling is low, and guarantees a painful head bump. Top suite has fantastic bathroom. Host, Steven is a fantastic talker and makes you feel at home.

Hidden Gem in the Highlands
We had a lovely stay with Ginny and Steven at their fabulous, yet cozy B&B. They were amazing hosts - super friendly, hospitable, and had great advice. Our room was perfect for three and the beds were very comfy. We slept very well that night and wished we could have stayed longer. They provided every amenity we could use and the bathroom was clean and modern, while still being rustically stylish. The breakfast was very plentiful and delicious. I loved the porridge!

Average
Nice enough and a very good location however room (#7) was quite small with a private bathroom that was not connected to the room so was not overly convenient. Breakfast was OK but did not seem freshly cooked (reheated?). Owner is very friendly and helpful.
