We had an exceptional stay at this charming bed and breakfast! The rooms were spotless, and the entire place felt warm and welcoming. The host went above and beyond, offering fantastic suggestions for local attractions that truly enhanced our visit. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—highly recommend! Thank you Fraser! :)

Nice B and B in Inverness. Fraser was helpful and professional. Place was great. We traveled without a car and the place is a 15- 20 min walk from city center and train station. It is a pleasant walk across the Ness river. Just be aware of check in and check out times as it is a small B and B and not a hotel. We are giving the stay a five star review and highly recommend it! We do have some suggestions : We found the room a bit chilly . The windows were east facing in our room . The very early to rise May Scottish Sun had us waking up in panic that we had overslept!!! Black out drapes would be a lovely addition to this nice place. We would have no hesitation in booking this place again!

This was a wonderful place to stay! Very clean and safe. It’s easy to walk to downtown from here where the pubs and shops are. Fraser is friendly and kind and full of suggestions for things to do and see in Inverness. The breakfasts were delicious. If you’re a dog person his dogs are super friendly and sweet. I highly recommend Ballifeary Guest House.

Beautiful house in a great location.
Ballifeary is a beautiful home. Fraser is the consummate gentleman. He gave us great ideas for places to visit in the area. The main part of town is only 5 - 8 minute walk and he knew all the best places and the need to make reservations. Each morning we received a delicious breakfast which we chose from a menu the night before. It was ready at the time we chose to be in the dining area.

Ballifeary was absolutely wonderful. The room was lovely, the food was excellent, and Fraser was an amazing host who saved the last of our trip. We had a route planned back to Edinburgh that wouldn't have really showed off the highlands, and Fraser gave us recommendations on how to go instead. His recommendations for Inverness were spot on as well. So glad that we stayed here!

Fraser was the best host and went above and beyond. Both mornings of our stay he made us yummy brown bag breakfasts to take with us since we had to leave early. The house feels like home and is clean as a whistle. The beds feel like comforting clouds. Book here, and you'll sleep like a baby.

What an amazing place to stay. The owners are fantastic as they were very sociable and love to give you recommendations while you’re in the area or for your next destination. Breakfast was amazing! The room was spacious, beautiful, and very clean. The Wi-Fi was a little spotty on the 2nd floor but usable. Would totally recommend you stay here if you’re in the area!!
