Local not to miss scenery

Great Beach where locals go wild swimming with Nessie. It has Scenic view of Loch Ness and if your very lucky you might spot the Loch Ness Monster (Nessie). Dores Beach is free to visit that is next to a great pub which serves great food and drinks. It has shuttle service to Inverness which can be booked privately through the pub.

Neighbourhoods

Inverness city is small and easy to get around. It has plenty of shops and restaurants. Pubs at night offer live music from local bands. Our neighbourhood is on the edge of the city located next to woodland and it is a tranquil area with next to no noise at night. It has spectacular views of Ben Wyvis and The Beauly Firth. However it is still very easy to get into the city if required.
