The Craigny guest house is a really pleasant place to spend some days in Inverness. Setting has been carefully perfected in all details. The room was cozy and spacious, the bathroom clean and confortable (I appreciated a lot the mixer tap and the shower!), scottish breakfast rich and tasty. The owner is really kind and funny and he makes great... More

Rodney and Gail are wonderful hosts. Their guesthouse is immaculately kept, with spacious rooms including comfortable beds, spotless modern bathrooms, and in-room tea essentials. We absolutely loved our stay, including the excellent breakfast spread with everything we could possibly want to start our day. Our only complaint is that we didn't have the foresight to book a longer stay! We... More

How lucky that we stayed at the Craignay House in Inverness. Not only was it a wonderful Guest House but the owners were a huge help to us. The day we left Inverness we had a tire blow-out on one of the smaller roads. After repairing the tire we returned to Craignay House for assistance. Rodney made numerous calls for... More

Having stayed at this lovely house for the second time only, I was delighted to find that the wonderful ambience and comfort that we had experienced last year was just as good, if not better, this year. Even although we had the smallest room in the house, due to late booking so our own fault, everything we needed was there.... More

We enjoyed our stay with Rodney and Gail who were very friendly and helpful. The guest house was very clean, the bed and pillows comfortable, we had a light airy room. The location is great for lovely walks by the River Ness, and is in walking distance of the town, lots of choices for eating. We would certainly stay again.
