Nairn is a cracking town to visit at any time of the year, and Dolphin Cottage is a wonderfully comfortable place to stay. You're situated very close to the beach and great walks for you and your dog, only a few minutes walk away from the shops, and close to two brilliant golf courses. My wife and I couldn't have been happier with Dolphin Cottage. Kay and Stella, the owners, are two lovely ladies.
Lovely cottage, well equipped, ideal location, beautiful sunsets, couldn’t ask for more.

Beautiful cosy and comfortable little cottage in a excellent, quiet location. Both Dolphin cottage and the location are very dog friendly.
All amenities are within easy walking distance. That is its close to the beach, restaurants, cafes and shops.
But its the attention to detail and little extras that set it apart from all the rest!

A beautiful cottage fully equipped with everything you could need or want. Log burner particularly welcome on chilly Scottish evenings. Very generous welcome basket and reassuring COVID-19 procedures in place. Good position for exploiting Nairn and adventures further afield. Would definitely stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Dolphin Cottage. We found it very well equipped and comfortable, and very clean. The shower is great. We used the wood burner a couple of times...excellent. The bedrooms are small due to the style of house, but bed was comfortable and the view from the window superb. We wouldn’t hesitate to go back again.

We had a fantastic time at Dolphin Cottage.
We had a fantastic time at Dolphin Cottage. The location is ideal, with lovely views over the links to the sea (with potentially amazing sunsets). The cottage itself was very comfortable, and contained everything that that we could have wanted - including tennis raquets and a bucket and spade for playing on the beach!
Due to the situation with covid, a number of restaurants in the area were still closed when we were there, but we still managed to get takeaway food - the Bandstand and Sun Dancer were particularly good.
I would recommend the Dolphin Cottage to anyone, and hope to return again.

We loved our stay in Nairn, Dolphin Cottage is so close to the beach, near the village and across the road from a friendly pub. There was everything we needed for a restful week. We loved the Dvds selection, music and best of all NO INTERNET! A real break could be had.
Thanks Andrea and James #

Wonderful Cottage with everything that you could possibly need to make it a home from home. Cottage description in brochure was very accurate. Lovely walks along beach and into forest. Ample of very good food and drinking establishments nearby and further into Town. I used cottage as a base for rail touring the Kyle and Far North Lines. Hope to return later in the year to view a further season up here

We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday
The cottage was very well equipped and cosy. The biggest snag was the lack of rubbish disposal, with no bins being supplied. We tried to dispose of our rubbish in the adjoining car park's bins but they were full. Also the bottle bottle bank near the harbour only took glass, no plastic, which meant we had to take everything home with us. The attractive wall lights were no use for reading or writing in the evenings. We surmised the lack of logs for the wood-burning stove was because there was no amenities available to dispose of the ashes. Perhaps you should take this off your advert. Despite this we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and will probably return - with a large supply of rubbish bags.
