The property itself was fine but the reception and subsequent interaction with the owners was not what I’d call a warm welcome. To be fair, Doug was a good fellow but the old woman was just a crank from the word go really. Additionally, I left something quite valuable behind by accident, and even offering to pay for shipping and the inconvenience they still refused to put it in the post. Wasn’t expecting a special trip or to do it in a hurry.. just the next time they might be mailing something… but no. Could not be done. So I hope you at least give it to someone who can use it rather than throw it in the bin. Would not return.

The hosts were friendly and welcoming. The area is quiet and safe with dining opportunities close-by. Room very clean and comfortable and convenient for access to the airport. Great too for access to Inverness. Can't fault it and highly recommend it.

Wouldn’t book again
Room was very small, walk to private bathroom not very good in middle of night. Meant to be exclusive use but no key required therefore could be used by anyone. Breakfast was okay. Payment for stay was dreadful. They didn’t seem to know what was going on and blamed everyone for the problems rather than taking immediate responsibility themselves to sort it out. I have never had these issues before and I make more than 10 trips a year. Made 2 phone calls to b & b, and they were very abrupt…..does not make for good customer service.

Friendly and helpful hosts. Comfortable and quiet. Excellent breakfast. And all for a very good price. Lovely walks along the beach. Quick and easy access to the city of Inverness and to the airport. Good local restaurant very nearby. Highly recommended, and I'll certainly stay here again.

This really was a horrible experience. We arrived at the bnb at 10:30pm and no one was there to let us in. The little town was completely dead and no one was around. We tried calling, but the only phone was right on the other side of the door and no one answered or was there to answer. We weren’t sent any check-in instructions or a door code to get in by ourselves. We later realized that check-in was only until 10pm, but this information was hidden in like a tiny little print at the bottom of the confirmation email, VERY easy to miss. We were just shocked that the host didn’t contact us at all the day we were to arrive and never sent know before you go instructions. We tried for quite some time to figure out what to do or how to get in. We knocked, rang the bell, called, emailed - and nothing. We ultimately had to find a last minute hotel in another town and did not get in until midnight. There should be some way to contact the host. We were only 30 min late. We would have been on time had we known we needed to be. It is now the the next day and the host still hasn’t responded to our emails… Really truly an awful, frustrating experience. 0/10. We would not recommend. We hope we can get some kind of refund.

I travelled around Scotland for over a week, staying in different hotels and B&Bs each night. This was by far my favorite. Nice home, clean, quiet, safe, in a very cute village on the beach, and the hosts were very friendly. I didnt eat dinner there as I already had plans, but breakfast was amazing the next morning. I would stay here again and recommend for anyone wanting a peaceful, quiet place to stay

The house is large and spacious and very well appointed. I'd a friendly welcome and a helpful tour of the house. My bedroom though small, was very comfortable. The bathroom was down a corridor. It was a private bathroom and pristene clean. I'd an excellent breakfast of fresh fruit with Greek yogurt, croissant, brioche with three cheeses and toast. It's the best I've been served anywhere.

Enjoyable 3 night stay. Recommended
Couldn’t fault this place at all. Friendly and helpful hosts. Lovely clean room with sofa and view of the Loch. We walked to Fort George along the Loch side which was easily accessible by a short path from Inchrye. En suite was small with shower but everything needed was provided. Good location with 2 pubs serving evening meals nearby and a bus stop from which we caught a bus into Inverness was only a short walk away. On site parking was available. Breakfasts were amazing, particularly the continental which was full of cheeses, fruits, yoghurt, cake, croissant and toast. Recommended place to stay if visiting the nearby attractions such as Culloden and Cawdor Castle and of course Fort George which was just down the road. Really enjoyed our 3 night stay there

Quick and efficient, I chose Inchrye because it is close to the airport and I have a 7am flight. Just 10 minutes from the airport driving, so return to the airport is a breeze. If you have a rental car, do fuel up the night before, as there is no gas station operating at that hour in the morning. The host is friendly and straight forward, kindly allowing me to park behind their car as I am leaving early in the morning and therefore won't block their passage. I had the single room with Private bath, clean and efficient stay with the price right. Would recommend.
