I first stayed at Moyness House a couple of years ago and loved it, so when my friend and I returned in January we had high expectations. We weren't disappointed. This place really is the bee's knees!

Our room (downstairs as requested, because I have difficulty with stairs) was a good size and beautifully decorated, with a pristine new bathroom (good lighting, marble tiled floor, good shower, thick white towels, decent toiletries). The beds were very comfortable, with good linens, and the room had a large flat screen TV (and a wide choice of channels) and a CD player. There was good wireless connection for my friend's laptop. We also made use of the beautiful sitting room, which is furnished with some lovely Victorian antique furniture.

The breakfasts were wonderful, with plenty to choose from, and everything very fresh and appetisingly presented. I loved the scrumptious fresh fruit salads, with so many different kinds of fruit. My friend said the traditional (and enormous!) Scottish breakfast was delicious, but my own favourite was the smoked kippers, which were heavenly. Very good (fresh) fruit juice. You give your order at breakfast, which I much prefer to some other places we stayed, where we were asked to decide what we wanted for breakfast the night before.

Location is good, just a short stroll to restaurants (5 to 10 minutes, I'd say) and shops. Inverness is a very attractive town, and we found it was an excellent place to base ourselves for having a good look round the Highlands. Some of the high points for us were Findhorn and Dornoch on the east coast, Ullapool and Plockton on the west coast, and Glen Affric (fantastic for hiking).

I have been to Moyness twice on business in Inverness. The rooms are truly lovely and very comfortable. There are lots of little personal touches in the decor and also the guest's facilities which make you feel at home from home. The owners, Jenny & Richard are such warm and welcoming hosts; ever helpful!
To be highly recommended!

I visited the guest house during my Scotland roundtrip by train. The location of the guesthouse is not ideal for train travellers but if you don't carry too much luggage with you, you can walk the distance (or take a taxi). I booked the guest house because of the excellent reviews and I must say, I was in no way dissappointed. Yes, the single room is a bit on the small side but that is the only minor negative point. The owners sure love their job. No detail is overlooked. They are friendly but not obtrusive. No wonder they got five 5 stars from the AA!!

Moyness House was a wonderful place to stay. My husband and I are both from New Zealand and have been living in England for 2 years and decided we would have a weekend in the Highlands before returning home early next year. It was such a pleasant surprise to be greeted by a fellow Kiwi (Jenny) and we found both Jenny and Richard amazing hosts who both went the extra mile. Not only did we get a great bed and breakfast but also driving directions and recommended restaurants! The room itself was spotless and had more than we needed and the breakfast was delicious; great for starting a freezing day in Scotland!

We would recommend Moyness House to anyone wanting a nice but affordable place to stay.
