2 day break in Inverness
Visit to Inverness for a couple of days before we headed to Aviemore . The room was a good size and not too far from the centre, it was lovely to stay near the river. The only complaint we had the curtains would not stay on the rail and were very light so were getting woken up really early. The footpath walking through the gate towards the b & b then paving slabs aren’t very wide and makes it difficult to get your suitcase on.

Lovely building in a great location overlooking the river. Clean and comfortable but the room was a little cramped with its sloping roof.

Delightful 200 year old house with the charm and quirks one could expect from such. Very convenient to downtown and the castle.

Good value B&B
The best value B&B I've found in Inverness. Clean, comfortable and a nice welcoming host. Every other place was asking ridiculous money and Talisker offered a good old fashioned B&B. The noise from the toilet is a bit loud and I was worried about waking the other guests but overall the room was just what was required.

The service was excellent and had great choices at the continental breakfast. Super fast and easy check-in and the owner was easy to reach and to respond.
The room was clean and had all the amenities.
The property is well situated with ease of walking everywhere downtown Inverness for local attractions and shopping. We would definitely go back.

Lovely old house, with appropriate decor and furnishings. Wonderful river view. Friendly helpfull staff on arrival and at breakfast. Private parking ideal for us with a dog sleeping in the car. Bathroom facilities a little bit dated.

Great location!
Talisker was in a great location by the river. The room was nice and pretty comfortable and the owner/staff were very pleasant. My only issue was with the shower! it was impossible to regulate the temperature!

Such a cozy stay in Inverness
Loved our short time here. Such a lovely room with a river view and a short walk to everything we wanted to do. Host was so friendly and breakfast was great. We read that parking was a little tricky - it's just hard to turn into the tight gate from the busy road. We ended up circling around until we were on MacDonald Street and could easily drive straight through the gate with no turning. Would love to stay again for a bit longer next time!

Property maybe needs some improvements. However, the lady who assisted is a wonderful host, kudos for her.

The pathway from the parking area to the back and side of the house is poorly lit. The pathway is not wide enough for this. I stepped too close to the edge of the pathway and my foot slipped off it into the gravel beside it causing my ankle to roll and break. I was six days into an 18 day trip. It's basically ruined the rest of my time in Scotland.
