Comfortable property in great location
We really enjoyed the City Centre Cottage. It was clean and comfortable with plenty of room for the six of us. Kitchen was fully stocked and we cooked several meals there. Very much appreciated the wood burning fireplace and the logs that were provided. Just a short walk to the center of the city! Definitely recommend.

Close to stores, bike tour, restaurants, River Ness. Host was very responsive to any of our requests. We hired him to pick us up at Edinburgh and give us a tour of the Isle of Skye. He was a great resource on Scottish culture and enjoyable to be around.

Great home in Inverness
Check in/out was smooth. The owner came by to check on us and offer info on the area. The back yard and porch were wonderful. The location was just across a bridge from the down town area - easy walking to dining and shopping. The home was clean, comfortable and comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

A Wee Gem in inverness
We were two couples staying in the flat. It was clean and had every amenity that we could have needed. The location was a short walk to the downtown. When we arrived we found food items in the fridge for our first breakfast. Very generous! I would highly recommend staying here and we will stay again the next time we are in Inverness.

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!!

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.

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!

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.
