Clean and spacious room. Sue and Steve are excellent hosts and made us feel very welcome. They even allowed us to eat our takeaway in the dining room. The full Scottish breakfast was EXCELLENT.

Great place to stay to access very interesting sights, e.g. Highland Wildlife Park and the Highland Folk Museum. The hosts were very nice and friendly. The room was clean and well prepared. Especially the bed was comfortable. Parking was possible directly in front of the house which is ideal if you travel by car. We were even able to book a spontaneous and very delicious breakfast.

Very comfortable bed!! Loved having the pet cat and dog in the house as we are big pet lovers. I should also mention the tropical fish tank too.

It was all good and the only thing I would say is that the shower was not wall mounted. The bathroom looked as though it was retiled very recently which was lovely so this was maybe still to be done. But this a very minor issue and we would have no hesitation in booking here again.

- Staff; Sue has been very friendly and made all extra wishes possible. - Breakfast: very good

The description of the room could have been more clear, especially in the German Booking.com description. Described was "private bathroom", in fact it was a bath in the room itself.

I really enjoyed staying at Avondale and I had a lovely clean room with a very comfortable bed, I slept so well. Breakfast is additional at £9.50 with a good choice of things to choose from and the hot food I had was very good. Sue and Steve are great hosts and it was lovely to meet their cats and gorgeous dog. It's only a few minutes walk to both the centre of the village and the train station. Would definitely stay there again.

Room was very clean, breakfast was terrific and we liked the huge fish tank and dog. Area was quiet and peaceful. Host recommended seeing the barracks just down the road which was amazing.

Some of the rooms are not for guest use so my feedback would be to have these doors closed because they don’t give the right impression

Very comfortable large bed and a pleasant view from my window. The Guest House is very close to the train station and only a few minutes walk away and shops are close. Having said that the Guest House is in a very quite area.

Nothing.

Lovely stay at Avondale. Owners will do what they can to make your stay comfortable. Breakfast was fantastic and large portion that kept us going for the whole day.

Bed was a bit soft for me but OH thought it was good...so you can never please everyone. We both slept well and it was so peaceful
