Susan is a great host. This was comfortably the best property we’ve stayed in. She has thought of pretty much everything. The beds are supremely comfortable, great living room, excellent garden - which can be fully enclosed if you’re travelling with a pooch. Daviot is a great location for exploring in and around Inverness. 10 mins or so to the city centre, 10-15 mins to Culloden, 45 mins to Aviemore.
