Family hotels and homes in Auldearn

During an overnight trip to visit Inverness/Loch Ness and Culloden Battlefield, my friends and I were looking for a geographically convenient place to stay. We were booking at the last minute (during high season in the summertime) and weighing a small handful of options, and we could not be happier that we stayed at the Glen Lyon Lodge with Helen. Because Helen has recently begun running the B&B, there are few reviews to speak for what a lovely experience she offers. The rooms in the house have been lovingly refurbished to be charming and comfortable. We booked the Double Room with Private Bathroom and the Superior Double or Twin Room with Garden View, and the latter was especially nice because it included an adorable sitting area. Everything was clean and fresh, the towels were soft, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom products were a local treat. Helen leaves homemade shortbread on the tea tray in each room; in fact, the house smelled delicious and inviting when we walked in. She also provided a folder to each room containing helpful information about the area. The entryway area also offers various brochures of interest about the local community, from nearby distilleries to a local cinema festival. Nairn itself was very charming and the Glen Lyon Lodge is conveniently positioned to walk a few minutes and explore the town and shops. We enjoyed dinner at the Bandstand and strolled down to the beach afterwards to get a glimpse of the North Sea. The town and scenery won us over and we were all a little sad to leave Nairn the next day. As a consolation, Helen's full Scottish breakfast was delicious and the homemade granola and sourdough are not to be missed. Helen is a genuinely kind and attentive host who made us feel welcome and comfortable. I highly recommend the Glen Lyon Lodge B&B and would happily return!
