Guests say
The Townhouse in Inverness is highly praised for its superb central location, spacious layout, and peaceful atmosphere despite being close to the city centre. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, comfortable rooms, and easy access to local amenities. While most reviews highlight cleanliness and attentive service, a few mention occasional issues with cleaning and maintenance. Thoughtful touches such as welcome provisions have been noted by some guests, though these are not always provided. Overall, the property offers a comfortable and convenient base for exploring Inverness, with most guests expressing a desire to return.
Most guests found the property clean and well-maintained, with several describing it as spotless. However, a few reviews mention cleanliness issues such as unclean bathrooms, a persistent damp smell, and the property not being ready at check-in, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is consistently praised as excellent, with guests highlighting its proximity to the city centre, shops, transport links, and local attractions, all while being situated on a quiet street.
Guests generally found the house comfortable, spacious, and homely, with positive remarks about the beds, living areas, and garden. A rare mention of discomfort due to bugs was noted, but this was not a common theme.
The property is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, and offers useful amenities such as parking permits and garden furniture. Some minor issues were raised, including a lack of cutlery, a frozen freezer, and locked bedrooms, but these did not significantly detract from the overall positive experience.
Some guests appreciated thoughtful touches like welcome gifts (bubbly, tea, coffee, milk) and attentive service. However, these gestures are not guaranteed, and a few guests noted the absence of basic provisions and cleaning supplies.

The house is in a fantastic location, with a decent amount of room and various aspects have been modernised. There were a couple of negatives. When we arrived at check in time, the property wasn't ready and was still being cleaned. Not ideal after a long drive and the first time this has happened in about 20 years of renting properties for holidays. A second issue was that the property is for 6 people but there were only 4 knives for eating dinner! Finally, the freezer was fully frozen with all drawers stuck together and ice everywhere; when I finally got in the property I then had to defrost this to store some of our food.

More knives needed in the cutlery draw.As the house sleeps 6 would it be possible to purchase another parking permit?Excellent location- close to city centre and lots of independent coffee shops without being noisy. A pleasant residential location.

Great location just a 4 minute walk to the centre. Brilliant facilities, everywhere was so clean and comfortable. The kitchen diner was so well equipped we could self cater when we wanted to. Although so close to the centre of Inverness, the road was quiet and peaceful. On street parking worked out well and we had no difficulty finding a spot. Would highly recommend a stay at the Townhouse.
