Quiet spot near Inverness

This is a quiet and clean property 5-6 miles outside of Inverness where the closest restaurants are located. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 with good kitchen and dining facilities. It has a beautiful yard where you can wander after a busy day.

We had a fabulous and memorable time staying in the suite at Old Drynie House !

The location of the beautiful home with large mature trees overlooking the Moray Firth and managed lawns made for a relaxing stay. Access to Inverness is very easy although the home lies in a peaceful environment and only a short drive to the Dolphin watching site at Chanonry Point. Views across the Firth are to Fort George with its impressive battlement walls.

Host profile image
One thing almost all our guests say is that they wish they had stayed longer, which is a real compliment that we appreciate.

If Old Drynie House is your base you can reach almost all of the magic of the Highlands in several one day trips using our famous itineraries.

Our Bed and Breakfast business scores 9.6 and has won best B&B in the North for the last four years and Best B&B in Scotland on one of those years.

Everything is to a very high standard, you will not be disappointed.
