We throughly enjoyed our 3 days and nights with Minty and Gavin. They were wonderful friendly hosts who went out of their way to be helpful at all times. The facilities were very clean and took into account all the needs of travellers. The lounge was a beautiful but homely room where we felt very comfortable after a day"s touring.... More

Gavin and Mintie's lovely house is perfectly sited - you feel like you are miles from the world! When we drove up, Gavin was in the garden with the cat, and we had to shoo some pheasant out of the way. Perfect, perfect place to unwind. Mintie did a great job working through where to eat, what to do, and... More

We stayed just one night at Craigiewood but it was wonderful. We especially enjoyed the wonderful surroundings of the lovely garden, the cosy living room with the fire and the peace and quietness of the area. The hosts are very nice and prepared a delicious breakfast. Mintie's homemade fruit purres were the best. We had the best night's sleep ever.... More

Another fantastic stay at Craigiewood with Minty and Gavin. Hosting and cooking seems to be effortless for them, and we could have sat for hours in the garden surrounded by the wildlife (multiple yellowhammers, sparrows, goldfinches, Red Kites, buzzards, pheasants....etc). Hard to believe it is only a few miles from the Kessock Bridge and Inverness.

Craigiewood is a beautiful home surrounded by a lovely garden, set in the peace and quiet of the Black Isle with fine long views, especially to the west. It's easily accessible, being a couple of miles off the A9 just north of Inverness. What more could you want? Oh, yes... the warm welcome, perfect hospitality and thoughtful comfort that Minty...

Thank you Minty and Gavin. We thoroughly enjoyed our very short stay on the Black Isle with you both! Despite it being mid winter and us being a little disorganised in our arrival, with our friends, Minty welcomed us with open arms earlier than expected and rustled up a pot of tea and cake in a beautiful private sitting room....

Minty and Gavin gave us a warm welcome to their home. The guest lounge with fire was perfect for relaxing at the end of a long cold day. The local pub recommended for dinner is charming with good food. Our host's recommendations for a westerly drive were spot on. We would happily return if we are up that way again.

Found this wonderful accommodation by using tripadvisor. It was well recommended - and I wholeheartedly agree! Thanks to Minty and Gavin for their hospitality and recommendation - the hotel in North Kessock serves fabulous food. I will definitely be back with hubby!

Craigiewood is in the most wonderful, peaceful location. We were made so very welcome by Minty, a lovely lady. Nothing was too much trouble (she even did some laundry for us) and we were served tea and cakes on arrival. The house is beautiful and our good sized room was extremely comfortable with a lovely en-suite with good toiletries. Highly... More
