Rachael was really friendly and helpful and she went out of her way to help me explore the Fairy Glen hiking trail in the limited time I was there. The location was nice and central to what I wanted to see. Bus stops were very close, which made traveling easy. And I loved the personal touch with a handwritten welcome note, flowers and a little card.

Newly refurbished, compact, cosy en-suite double room with own entrance. Just 30 seconds walk from the seafront in the peaceful village Avoch. One guest recently described the area as magical. Approximately 1 minute walk from the room to nearest shop and bus stops to Inverness and Cromarty.
I moved to the Black Isle from the Black Country. I love meeting people from different backgrounds. I enjoy walking my dogs, Vincent and Deborah (Labrador and Golden Retriever) and swimming in the sea and I'm always happy for guests to join me! I am also happy to recommend local walks, places to visit and places to eat. I work part-time for National Trust Scotland at Hugh Miller's Birthplace Cottage in Cromarty.
Avoch is a picturesque fishing village on the Moray Firth, just 20 minutes from the Highland Capital Inverness in one direction and Cromarty in the other. 2 George Street is an old Fishermans Cottage on a narrow street in the Dock area of the village. Nearby attractions include Chanonry Point, one of the best places to spot Bottlenose Dolphins in Britain, (There are dolphin spotting trips available from Avoch Harbour), The Fairy Glen Waterfall at Rosemarkie and Munlochy Clootie Well.
