“What struck me most is the adults-only policy coupled with its proximity to Inverness' attractions; it carves out a peaceful niche. The host's attentiveness and the provision of extras like breakfast porridge enhance the experience, while the garden offers a tranquil escape within the city. It's a well-considered option for couples seeking a quiet, convenient retreat.”
