Great place, perfect location
This place was perfect. Centrally located, nice neighborhood with grocery close by. We were able to walk everywhere. Gregor was amazing and we booked a “tour” with him. We got to see all over the countryside, he was very helpful and welcoming. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and time here. Extra touches like bread and milk was amazing. Would definitely recommend and if we find ourselves up there again we will be staying here again if we can. Thanks so much.

Visiting for the weekend.
The cottage was perfect for our needs and made exploring Inverness a breeze as it was an easy 10-15 min walk into the city along the river. The stroll down to Ness Islands was a delight and we enjoyed the hospitality at the Waterfront gastropub which was a couple of minutes from the cottage. There was a local supermarket around the corner which made getting groceries easy (we were without a car on this occasion) Gregor was super helpful and communicative and we really appreciated the welcome provisions. We had the pleasure of meeting Gregor on our departure and he was very pleasant and full of local information. He also offers bespoke tours which we hope to experience on a future longer visit. A lovely stay the whole family enjoyed.

Gregor has a beautifully appointed home in a central location. The home was clean, comfortable and restful. The back garden and sunroom was such a lovely place to relax and enjoy meals. The closeness to the downtown centre was a real plus. We could enjoy all Inverness had to offer, and then cross the river back to our home away from home. A point of note was Gregor’s kindness when it came to check out. We had a delay and were not able to get out on time. He was generous and kind even though it effected the cleaning staff. Can’t wait for our next stay and have Gregor take us on a few tours. Thank you Gregor!!

Lovely Time in Inverness
Gregor was a delightful host-guide. His VRBO was well- situated very near an ALDI grocery store and many restaurants. We also used Gregor's services for several days of touring and he was incredibly accommodating , knowledgeable and a most pleasant person. A memorable stay !

This property is within walking distance of downtown Inverness it is close to stores and restaurants. Gregor is a tour guide and is very familiar with the Highlands. We went on several private tours with him and never saw a tour bus at the locations he took us.

Great location nice size
We’ve never been greeted by an owner before. Gregor was the funniest by far. Our first meeting with a true Scot. He was so easy to communicate with and always made us laugh. Being our first time in Scotland there’s always adjustments how things are done. His place was super clean and even put food in fridge. Parking on street was never a challenge. Loved the backyard and glass enclosed breakfast nook.

Perfect Home Base
Loved our stay at Gregor’s. Easy walk to downtown Inverness, quiet street with permit parking (which Gregor provided for us). Right across from an Aldi so we could stock up on snacks and drinks. Plenty of space downstairs to spread out and bedrooms worked for our needs - one couple in the queen, one single person in the double bed and another couple taking the room with twin beds. Like camp! :) French press in kitchen was nice for coffee and Gregor even left us a few food items to get us going (eggs, bacon, bread, milk, butter). So so kind. Thank you for everything!

Fantastic host
The location is an easy walk to restaurants, shops, and grocery stores. Gregor goes above and beyond for his guests. Having seen his bike tours, I asked him about doing a different tour, which he helped research and arrange. When things out of our control went wrong, he did everything he could to help us work through it and provided an excellent day’s adventure! The cottage has plenty of charm, especially the back yard! Highly recommend this cottage or any of Gregor’s.

Perfect Location in Inverness and Perfect Host
Gregor's property is steps away from downtown Inverness with all it's colour and entertainment. He is a great host and also helped us with a wonderful tour of the Isle of Skye. It was a long day but he took us to spots where no tour busses were seen. Our photos of these locations are stunning. He is a hard working, and warm man. We highly recommend his property and his tours. Had we more time, we might have used his electric bike tours of skye. Five stars from Jim Dean Greg and myself. thank you Gregor!

Our host, Gregor, and his lovely cottage exceeded all our expectations! His hospitality went above and beyond, the cottage was immaculate and so very comfortable, and the location was ideal. Our flight to Inverness got in late on a Saturday night, but Gregor was waiting to greet us and made us feel at home right away. The cottage is just as described, and the sunroom out back is idyllic. I can't say enough wonderful things about this property and this host -- we will definitely be back! Thank you, Gregor, for such an amazing, memorable stay!

Amazing place for a 50th Wedding Anniversary Trip
We booked this lovely property for my In-laws 50th Wedding Anniversary trip. My in-laws were there for 3 weeks and my husband, brother-in-law, son and I were there for a week. Gregor is hands down the best property owner/manager I have ever dealt with and I stay at a lot of VRBO properties!! He was communicative before we arrived. He had the fridge stocked with the basics, bread, milk, butter and even a bottle of celebratory champagne when we arrived. Gregor helped us pick up our rental car, offered his cell phone for any need we may have and suggested his favorite restaurants and pubs. He took my in-laws fishing and bought them a bottle of scotch to enjoy during their visit. He was extremely helpful and kind. The property is beautiful and the garden was lovely, even in early spring. The market is a 3-5 minute walk away and close to the train station. We very much enjoyed our time during the week and my in-laws couldn't have asked for a better place to spend 3 weeks in Inverness! I highly recommend this property!!

Amazing communication before our say. Accurate and prompt replies. Property is perfectly located, near to all amenities and a beautiful area to explore a little further. Gregor provided lots of little extras which was greatly appreciated. Clean and very well equipped property. Only one slight downside is the bathroom, no bath and needs updating but not enough to knock any stars off! We will return

Great location
We had an excellent stay. From the moment we booked our stay, the communication from the owner was excellent. He replied quickly to any questions and even offered some great tips for places to go while we were up. The accommodation was in an ideal location with plenty of permit only parking (permits were provided by the owner). We were within easy walking distance of the centre of Inverness but it was also quick to get to and from the house by car because it didn’t require going through the centre. We received a warm greeting from the owner, Gregor, and it was a nice surprise to find some basics had been provided. The Waterfront Pub was great for food and drink for all the family and it was only a 2 minute walk round the corner.

Beautiful home from home
This house was a home from home and an absolute pleasure to spend the start of our holiday in. It is light, airy and much larger inside than the outside appearance suggests. Downstairs there is a very spacious and comfortable living room with a supply of fuel for the burner and, at the rear, one of the double bedrooms and a sunroom with dining table. For those who like to cook, the kitchen is high quality and, unlike many holiday places, equipped for some proper cooking with a good gas hob, proper pans and pots, lots of equipment and a lot of oils, vinegars, spices and other ingredients. Gregor kindly added to to these and left us some groceries and a bottle of wine. Upstairs the bedrooms are bright and the master bedroom is very large. Outside is a well tended, peaceful and also quite private garden with a dining set and a BBQ. The location is perfect, simply walking to the end of the street brings you to the outer edges of the town centre and for evening strolls there is immediately a view of the bridges and the castle lit up on the hill. Gregor himself is an extremely kind host and falls over himself to be helpful. After showing us the house and giving us lots of advice about getting the most from our holiday, he was based nearby and available if needed. We can't recommend a stay with Gregor enough.

Super cottage in a great location
We stayed a week beginning July 21, 2 couples with 2 dogs. The cottage was fantastic for us, plenty of space in the living room with large TV, and bedrooms were a great size. Full of all the necessary facilities. Good garden space too for the dogs and stretching legs. In a great location to walk into Inverness center or jump in the car and explore the wonderful areas and sites around Inverness and beyond. The owner, Gregor, was great to communicate with and made the process easy. He met us on arrival and gave us some good ideas to add to our ‘to see’ list. Highly recommend staying here.!

Gregor was great with all the arrangements. The house was very easy to find, parking was virtually at the door (permit provided) and the house was spacious for the four of us plus our dog. Very good heating, comfy living room and excellent smart TV. The sunroom was chilly but the heater really helped. The enclosed garden was great for sitting out in the sun. Could not have been more convenient for the town centre and Aldi. Would highly recommend.
