We spent 4 days and 3 nights in Inverness. Perfect location as we walked to town and were close to shopping, eating and pubs. House was well appointed and had the perfect separation of space. Would satay here again on next trip to Inverness.

My wife and I along with our three adult children had a wonderful stay at Dunvegan. The house was spacious and convenient to anywhere in town. More importantly it was clean and well appointed. Also David was incredibly helpful in arranging a tour guide for excursions to Skye and the Highlands. A wonderful few days for our family to spend together!

Our party (5 adults) was very comfortable staying at Dunvegan-Inverness. The location is excellent. The host, David, sent very clear instructions in advance and a binder at the house provided all the information one might need about appliances etc. There was a welcome basket of treats which was greatly appreciated after a long day of travel. The beds and bedding were comfortable; the bathrooms very clean; the kitchen well-stocked. We hope to go back someday! Highly recommend.

Oh, David, your home was absolutely awesome! Instructions were clear and check in was so easy. The house had everything that we needed and some extra very nice touches. The home was decorated so pleasing and elegant and it was just a super short walk to the very center of town. I highly recommend. This is the best VRBO that we have ever stayed in!!

We loved our stay in the house! We loved being so close to town to walk every where. House had every thing we needed. We enjoyed going to the Cairngorm mountains, Loch Ness and walking over to the Ness river.

This place was fantastic.
Fantastic location, fantastic lay out, fantastic hosts and house keepers.
Things to note:
1. Don't under any circumstances close the inner door...especially with the keys inside.
2. When ordering pizza, ensure you tell them big house on hill with black gate or they will drive around for days.
3. Make reservations at the Castle Pub or you won't get a seat!
4. Explore explore explore
5. Things close early in Inverness, maybe due to the season, but get out early
6. Great central location for going North out of town
7. The house is more than equipped for short-term or long-term stays. They thought of EVERYTHING .... including kids dishes, every size pot and pan, dishes, etc.
Would be super awesome to have a table book of the extensive remodel before and after and the history of the home.
Other than that, hopefully we can make another trip back!!!!
Thanks Again!!!

Due to an unforseen situation we were not able to stay at this property. So I cannot comment on this property. The property manager David called me the day before we left for Inverness and told me there was damage in the property that needed to be fixed, and we could not stay there. This was very unexpected and worry some. However David arranged for us to stay at another property instead, and this worked out for us just fine. Thanks David

Brilliant property. Had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay.

We had an amazing stay here! Communication from the property was great and the house was so very cool and perfect for our whole family.
This house is in a perfect location in the city. Walking distance from most food and shops, and easy-quick trips or even day-trips to Loch Ness and Isle of Skye. Parking is a bit tricky but if you pay close attention to the property’s instructions you’ll be golden.
The property owner was so very detailed! We had all the answers to questions we didn’t even know we had. You can really tell the level of care!
We will 100% be returning on our next trip.

We enjoyed this house and the location so much. Beautifully equipped, spacious and comfortable. Parking easy. Views of Inverness from the 2nd story are amazing. Owner referred us to several taxi services for distillery tours, which worked out perfectly. We had a great time, and we'll be back!

This home was warm, cozy and very inviting. The views were amazing from almost every window. It felt like you were at home. On top of all that, each and every room was tidy and very clean. We wanted to stay much longer. We would recommend to our closest friends and family.

Property has seen better days. Needs a full cleaning, inside and out. The fence door latch to enter the property has been broken for a long time and is not easy to open/close. The exterior is overgrown, you have to watch the rose thorns as you approach the front door. The carpeting needs to be steam cleaned, furniture cleaned appropriately, the kitchen island wobbles, surfaces need attention, and insects (ie., spiders) sprayed for. The beds could be more comfortable, not sure if it was an issue of age/use or just inexpensive mattresses.

We stayed at this beautiful home for 1 week in September '22. There were 6 adults sharing the space and rooms were spacious and comfortable. The best part was the location. It was perfect for exploring Inverness and accessing train, bus and tours in town. I would highly recommend this location for a large group as ours. it is a great value for the space, location and your comfort.

Perfect find in central Inverness
Dunvegan House is absolutely in the top three of VRBO stays ever in over 15 years of international travel. Clean, well-equipped, updated & modernized with tasteful period touches, super comfortable beds & mattresses, and within a 5-minute walk to High Street and the River Ness. With 3 roomy bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and a separate study with sofa bed, there was plenty of room for our group of five. Closets and chest of drawers in each bedroom. Beautiful view of Inverness Castle (under renovation for the next year) and a small slice of the River Ness from the two front bedrooms. The small side garden could use some pruning, but it’s hard to beat the aroma of summer roses as you walk up to the front door. 10-15 steps leading up to the house from the street entrance could be a challenge for some people. Owner is extremely helpful and communicative and sent helpful, clear instructions and directions to the property about one week in advance. We absolutely loved Dunvegan House and would totally stay here again! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

The house has an amazing location!!! Truly close to everything in Inverness and easy to get out of the city to other sights. The house is so roomy and it was great for all of us to spread out. David was extremely helpful and responsive when I misplaced the check in instructions!!! This is definitely a great place to stay for families or for a group of adults.

This was the second time we stayed at Dunvegan because it is well located, clean and comfortable! David is a great host who is always available if necessary. We highly recommend it for a couple or like us, a family of 7 adults.

Flawless stay
David’s house is conveniently located in a quiet area but super close to all shops and restaurants. All communications were prompt and thorough; David had some excellent suggestions for our itinerary, especially Fraser Grant of IE Taxi Company, who was the ultimate professional and a great source of local history. Everything in the house worked as described. David was also kind to let us check out at a later time.
I would highly recommend David’s place for anyone visiting the Highlands. We’ll certainly return ourselves!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house is lovely, spacious, inviting and well stocked. The beds and bedding are extra comfortable. David provided groceries for our first breakfast, and there was plenty of coffee, tea and sugar for our entire visit. The town of Inverness is just outside the door. This house was perfect for our visit.

This home was the perfect place to stay during the middle of our vacation driving around Scotland. We booked it hoping that this would serve as a restful place for 4 nights while we visited the surrounding sites. It far exceeded all of our expectations. The location is easily walkable to everything in Inverness, and the home is far more spacious and calming that we imagined. Every room was spacious and welcoming with stunning views of the city. The owner stocked the fridge with breakfast food for our first morning, and we leisurely prepared it and dined in the beautiful dining room. This set the pace for our days. We ate breakfast every day in the dining room and ended our evenings in the cozy living room recounting our experiences from the day in front of the fire. Everything worked well in the house - all appliances, heat, parking, etc. We woke up every morning feeling rested and delighted to lounge in bed for a few extra minutes watching the clouds slowly meander across the sky, just above the roof tops of Inverness. The only complaint I have is the home was so lovely and welcoming that we may not have seen all that we could have around Inverness because we wanted to enjoy our time in this stunning home.

They had six stars I would give six stars! House was very comfortable and very enjoyable. It was perfectly situated to be able to walk most anywhere. And we love the recommendation to hire AA taxi service. Arthur was terrific!
