About this property
Nestled in the centre of the thriving city of Inverness in the Scottish Highland is Tommy’s. This wonderful, detached bungalow welcomes four guests for a romantic retreat or a family holiday in Scotland and benefits from off-road parking, close proximity to local amenities and attractions and a rear garden with furniture. Cross the threshold and head straight into the fully-equipped kitchen to help your partner rustle up a delicious meal that you can enjoy together at the intimate dining table. Or if the sun is shining, step outside to make the most of the weather with an alfresco affair upon the patio furniture; whatever the weather be sure to toast your retreat with a glass or two of fizz! When the sky darkens, snuggle up with your loved ones on the plush sofa in the sitting room or head for a refreshing rinse in the sleek shower room ahead of catching your rest in the sumptuous double or twin bedroom. Tommy’s boasts a fantastic location just paces away from local stores where you can pick up essentials to help ease your self-catered stay as well as pubs including the Glenalbyn Bar and The WaterFront which has fantastic views over the river and serves delicious food, great for when you need a break from the kitchen. Inverness has a myriad of attractions woven throughout; lose yourself in history at the Inverness Museum and Art Gallery, tour the Tomatin Distillery, enjoy tranquil walks along the River Ness or take to the Moray Firth on a cruise with the opportunity to spot the resident dolphins nearby! Venture inland to find the famed Loch Ness, where you can visit the Loch Ness Centre and Exhibition before traversing the impressive ruins of the 16th century Urquhart Castle which overlooks the loch; you never know you may get lucky and even spot Nessie yourself. Explore the beauty of the Scottish Highlands at Tommy’s. EPC Rating: Band D
Inverness, Scotland's Highlands' capital, is a jumping-off point for a wide variety of exciting adventures. You can quickly and easily reach soaring peaks, deep lochs, vast forests, and cliffy coastlines. Notable among these is the beautiful Loch Ness, where many visitors go in search of the mysterious Nessie. Culloden Battlefield, located on Culloden Moor, is close to the city (National Trust). An award-winning exhibit depicts the final major battle fought on British soil, and a stroll across the field is a sombre reminder of the clansmen who lost their lives there. Museums, an art gallery, high-quality theatre and other forms of entertainment, as well as a variety of shops, bars, and restaurants, can all be found within the city limits of Inverness. There is a wide variety of wildlife and marine life in and around the city, including red kites and dolphins that can occasionally be seen from the shore or on trips from the harbour. The city is located on the banks of the River Ness.

Janet had left us a lovely goodie basket thank you Janet it was a most welcome surprise and very useful, she made Trevor a yummy Banana bread, which he loved and what he didnt manage to eat he brought home with us thank you from Trevor. The cottage was well kept and had plenty of bedding,blankets and towels. The kitchen well well equipt with everything you could possibly need for cooking a meal to washing your clothes. Janet and Tommy were a lovely couple who were on hand should we have needed anything. we would definately recommend this cottage to family and friends should they want to visit Inverness and we would return should we decide to do a return visit. Thank you again it was well worth a visit.

As last time the property was sparkling clean, warm and comfortable. The property is close enough to the city centre and shops to be convenient but far enough away to be a nice quiet place to stay. Off road parking is really important to me and thereâs room for two cars on the drive. I will definitely book the property again when I next come up to Inverness and wouldnât hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
