About this property

Drumsmittal School, Black Isle, Inverness

Our recently renovated property which was the old village school, is completed to a high standard and is wonderfully bright and spacious. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms we are ideally located in a beautiful rural location less than 10 minutes from Inverness City Centre. The best of both worlds! Use us as your base to explore the Highlands. Our situation is perfect for exploring Inverness, The Black Isle, Loch Ness, Culloden, Clava Cairns, as well as further afield. If you are arriving by public transport we can pick you up in Inverness. There is a large private parking area outside the house and it's free of charge.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need including a microwave and a dish washer. If you prefer to eat out the near by village of North Kessock boasts a pub and a tea-room, both of whom serve great food. Free wi-fi is provided, although with so much to see and do, we hope you will relax and switch your phone off!

This place was amazing. We were sad to only spend 1 night. Lots of room, comfy beds, great bathrooms, amazing living room and kitchen, endless hot water, and an amazing host. Super fun history too :). I would absolutely stay again.

Just minutes from Inverness this property was an excellent location to explore the area and we loved that it was a converted school in quiet setting. We stayed in the two bedroom suite and found it to be spacious, comfortable and the amenities thoughtfully designed. I would highly recommend staying at this property!

Great location

We love the location of this home, it enabled us to have short trips to enjoy all of Inverness both downtown and some of the outlying areas. North Kessock was absolutely wonderful. We ate dinner there as well as breakfast and highly recommend both.

This property was conveniently located close to Inverness yet at a distance that offered peace and quiet. The house was immaculately kept with plenty of nice upgrades (e.g., new bathrooms, upgraded kitchen, hot water heater, garden). This was perfect for our family of four! Our hosts, Donnie and Ellie, were great, friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We would definitely come back here again.

Amazing!

This was the most beautiful location in a beautiful country. We had sheep and newborn lambs right outside our windows. It was sparkling clean and even stocked with a few essentials. I just cannot say how lovely it was. Ellie even took us to a local craft fair. Highly recommend this place to stay!!

Peaceful Property

This was a welcome sight at the end of each day we journeyed around the countryside. The location is convenient for exploring Inverness as well as a wealth of interesting attractions in the region. Very spacious, clean, and comfortable. The hosts were excellent at communicating with us and responded immediately to quickly fix a minor issue. We would recommend the so location without reservation.
