    Very friendly owner, clean room. Even though our room was quite small, the bed was the right size and comfy. There was coffee, tea, milk and even porridge in the room.

I'm Rosemary, I was born and bred in Inverness and am deeply passionate about the City of Inverness. I can advise you on things to see and do, places to eat and drink, hidden gems, and how to save a penny or two during your visit to Inverness. I look forward to welcoming you to my B&B.
