π - Oh, what can I say? Jane is a natural hostess, incredibly helpful and very friendly. The rooms are beautiful, and everything is extremely clean and tidy. The location is truly fantastic, and there are lovely restaurants nearby. Being close to the forest is perfect for beautiful, long hikes. π - The town itself is a bit overcrowded, which is due to the Nessie hype. There isn't that much to see, and unfortunately, we didn't spot the Nessie monster. π

Perfect B&B to relax π - The best place we've stayed during our tour of Scotland. Jane and Jim make you feel at home and give excellent advice on the area, each morning it was a pleasure to chat with them over a delicious breakfast.

Amazing service at this beautiful B&B. Quiet location closer to Skye (for our day trip) and out of the crowds of Inverness. Jane was a fantastic host. Breakfast was wonderful and the rooms were very nice.

Good afternoon Nicholas, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. It was a pleasure to welcome such a lovely family to Balmridge House B&B. We are delighted you enjoyed our peaceful location in Loch Ness and that it worked well for a day trip to the Isle of Skye. It means so much that you felt looked after during your stay and of course how you enjoyed our breakfast. Hopefully one day you will all be back to the Scottidh Highlands and we would love to host you again. Warmest wishes Jane

Homely guest house experience with wonderful friendly service. π - A cosy, well appointed guest house with a view back to Drumnadrochit and the Loch. Comfortable bedroom, and good breakfast. Hosts are keen to offer a home from home experience, full of personal touches. π - Nothing really.

All of the great things you want from Loch Ness are in Drumnadochit- the beautiful views, the outstanding eateries, the Great Glen distillery, the Craft beer, Urquhart Castle and the list goes on - what really matters is the hospitality at the places you stay.Jane at Balmridge House does it in spades!π₯°ππππππ Jane!

We had two wonderful nights at Jane's. Everything is so lovingly prepared, and Jane is always happy to answer questions and offer tips. She recommended a trip to the Black Isle, as there's a chance of seeing dolphins there at this time of year. We were lucky β it was a fantastic experience! Urquhart Castle is also nearby. Balmridge House is run with heart and soul! The rooms are charmingly furnished, and even bathrobes are provided. Every detail is perfect, and Jane is an outstanding host β it's so much more than just a place to stay. We really appreciate this personal touch. Thank you, Jane!
