Our recently renovated property which was the old village school, is completed to a high standard and is wonderfully bright and spacious. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms we are ideally located in a beautiful rural location less than 10 minutes from Inverness City Centre. The best of both worlds! Use us as your base to explore the Highlands. Our situation is perfect for exploring Inverness, The Black Isle, Loch Ness, Culloden, Clava Cairns, as well as further afield.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need including a microwave and a dish washer. If you prefer to eat out the near by village of North Kessock boasts a pub and a tea-room, both of whom serve great food. Free wi-fi is provided, although with so much to see and do, we hope you will relax and switch your phone off!

Lovely stay
Absolutely love this property!! So close to Inverness (just a quick drive across the bridge), but in the beautiful countryside. We loved to sit in the living room and watch the sheep in the field behind the property and the birds. The property is clean, large, beautifully decorated. The breakfast and other goodies provided by Ellie and Donnie were perfect and a wonderful surprise!! Donnie and Ellie are so friendly and helpful! Wish we could have stayed longer!! If you get a chance to turn left out of the property (instead of right to go back towards Inverness), you will find the most beautiful rural landscape! We drove to Chanonry Point to see the dolphins and would have loved to spend more time driving the countryside. Would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a central location for day trips (Culloden Battlefield/museum was just 15 minutes away, Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle were 25 minutes away), but a quiet retreat to return to for the evenings!

Great property in a fantastic location. Our hosts were very welcoming and helpful. The house had everything we needed and the sheep in the field behind were a welcome sight peeking over the stone wall.

Wonderful place, great area
We were pleasantly greeted and shown around the apartment. Such a cool place to stay with everything we needed, including food/drink. Hosts were very helpful with suggestions for food and other info. (N Kessock hotel dinner was 5 star!) We loved the view of grazing sheep from the bedroom / living area windows. Wish we could have stayed here longer.

Little piece of Heaven
We loved staying @ School of Drums! Ellie & Donnie were so kind and considerate. The place is huge, with plenty of room for relaxing. It's not everyday one can look out the window and watch the sheep grazing in the field. Lovely lovely place.

From the start, great communication from host! Easy to find and get into with provided instructions. We loved the location-outside of town but not too far. Donnie kindly greeted us shortly after we arrived and showed us around the property. This place had everything we wanted and more: spacious, quiet, clean, beautiful scenery, full kitchen with breakfast foods provided, large family room, washing machine, 2 nice bathrooms, and parking right outside the door. Highly recommend!
