Donnie and Ellie are absolutely fabulous! The Classroom is a very charming place to stay and not far from the city. It was very peaceful for relaxing after our busy days.One of the Best places we have stayed.Donnie & Ellie thank you for your hospitality.Martin & Terri
Everything about this place is amazing. It's a beautiful property in a beautiful area! The photos don't do it justice, but I'm not sure how they could. It's so peaceful and lovely there, I didn't want my time there to end!
This stay was awesome! The property is so well maintained and beautifully decorated with a fully equipped kitchen. All the outlets are labelled which was a big help in turning things on/off.
Our hosts had many useful resources for us to look through to sightsee in the area - Inverness and Black Isle.
You will not be disappointed!!
Thank you so much!

The host was welcoming and explained all we needed to know. The place was like renting a whole house. Very nice historical building. Very clean and nicely furnished. Highly recommend.
Two of us enjoyed a wonderful stay. Ellie met us at the door with our key & instructions for the unit. The indoor space was roomy, and the outdoor space was lush, quiet, and beautiful.
everything was perfect. Host was very pleasant and helpful. Property was clean and well equipped. Great location to get around and visit sites in the area. Highly recommend this property.
Great location in the countryside close to Inverness
We truly enjoyed our stay in the well-equipped apartment. Apartment is located in a former village-school, located 10 minutes drive from Inverness centre. As the apartment is located I. The countryside, it is nice and quiet.
The property was very clean, a welcome essential food was available at no extra cost. We felt the host had put care and thought into making our stay a good one. I would recommend this listing to anyone who is looking at this property
The hosts were absolutely amazing the sweetest couple ever. They left us some food just in case we needed it!! The room is beautiful they did a fantastic job remodelling the old school
We had an amazing stay at the Classroom. The space is beautiful and spacious, the hosts were welcoming, and check in was easy. Beautiful, quiet country location only minutes from downtown Inverness, but be sure to check the map provided by the hosts, as the GPS sent us down the wrong road. Enjoyed the view of the sheep in the fields just beyond the garden, nearby hiking and accessability to Inverness and surrounding sights. Will reccommend to anyone travelling to the region and hope to return in the future!
Wonderful, comfortable apartment with lovely views!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the smartly renovated classroom. The location is the best of both worlds; both conveniently situated off the highway and only minutes to Inverness, yet with beautiful, idyllic country views. Ellie is a warm, welcoming host with a keen eye for detail. She greeted us, provided a quick tour, and kindly stocked the fridge and cabinet with breakfast provisions. We appreciated her thoughtful touches such as a bedside water decanter, sweet treats, and cozy blanket. Thanks Ellie! The apartment is nicely set-up and very spacious, quiet, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen is functional, well-equipped, and organized. The huge bathroom is nicely done with ample space for toiletries; a definite plus when traveling. Two other pluses which made our stay more enjoyable were the heated clothes drying rack and large smart TV. We truly loved everything about this home away from home and highly recommend Ellie’s hidden gem to anyone coming to the area.
Wonderful place to stay. Clean, Clean, Clean and a few little extras to get you started. Great communication and hospitality by the hosts. I can’t say enough positive things about our stay. They don’t only host you, they care about you as well. Great access to Inverness and the Black Isle.
Loved his place, Donnie was a wonderful host. Very Clean, nice and quiet. Places to eat not hat far. Would definitely stay there again and recommend it.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Classroom. Donnie and Ellie were delightful hosts, even making sure there were some basic pantry staples as well as a little extra for my birthday. It's so close to Inverness and anywhere else you might want to go in a day.
