Welcome to Inverness, The capital of the Highlands. The historic town, now bustling city, sits where the River Ness meets the Moray Firth. From the moment you step into the city you feel the weight of Scottish history all around. The historic town is framed by the mountains and lochs that have drawn travellers north for centuries. 18 Hill Street is your home from home in the middle of it all, tucked into the leafy Crown area, one of the most desirable residential areas in the city.



Crown is a quiet, characterful neighbourhood of handsome Victorian houses just up the hill from the city centre. The area boasts its own delicatessen, two cafes and two pubs all popular with locals and visitors alike.



You are only minutes on foot from the heart of Inverness. Wander down to the newly renovated Inverness Castle, stroll along the banks of the River Ness, or cross the elegant footbridges to the Ness Islands for a peaceful walk among the trees. The twin spires of St Andrew's Cathedral, the bustling Victorian Market, and some of the finest restaurants, whisky bars and pubs in the Highlands are all within easy reach.



The house itself has two comfortable bedrooms, both fitted with versatile zip and link beds. That means you can have a generous kingsize for couples, or split the beds into two singles for friends or family travelling together. Whichever way you choose, the rooms are dressed with crisp linens and soft furnishings designed to feel like a proper Scottish welcome after a day of exploring.



With a well equipped modern kitchen and a cosy living space, you have everything you need to make a hearty breakfast before setting off, or to settle in with a dram and a good book once the day is done.



One of the real joys of 18 Hill Street is the private garden. It is a peaceful little corner of your own, with lovely views over the surrounding rooftops. It is the perfect spot for a morning coffee as you plan your day, or a quiet glass of wine in the evening after a day of exploring.



For those drawn to Scotland by its history and legends, Hill Street puts you in the perfect launchpad. The mysterious shores of Loch Ness are just twenty minutes away, where you can take a boat trip in search of Nessie, visit the dramatic ruins of Urquhart Castle, or simply stand and stare across waters that have inspired stories for centuries. The haunting Culloden Battlefield, where the 1746 Jacobite rising came to its tragic end, is a short drive in the other direction, followed closely by the ancient Clava Cairns, a circle of standing stones older than the pyramids.



Whisky lovers will find themselves on the doorstep of Speyside, the most famous distilling region in the world, home to legendary names like Glenfiddich, Macallan, Glenlivet and Aberlour. A day spent following the Malt Whisky Trail is a quintessential Scottish experience and one many of our guests return home talking about.



Beyond that, the wider Highlands open up in every direction. You can be in the Cairngorms National Park within an hour, on the wild beaches of the north coast, or following the road to the Isle of Skye, all from this one perfectly placed base. Whether you are here for the castles, the clans, the whisky, the wildlife or simply the unforgettable Highland scenery, 18 Hill Street offers the warmth, comfort and character of a true Scottish home.
