We stayed in this B&B for one night in May 2012 on our way home from Orkney. It is a really nice place to stay in Tain (which was chosen at random as it was vaguely on our route but was a nice little town). We got a very friendly welcome (the owners are great), a lovely room and an... More

Even though we only spent one night with Carole and Kelvin, we will never forget their hospitality, their beautiful, ideally located Guest house and their delicious breakfast. Our rooms were beautifully decorated, clean, full of amenities. Carole's smile and helpful advice made our trip easier. I recommend Dunbius Guest house to everybody travelling around the east coast and need a... More

Firstly I have just come onto tripadvisor to review this B&B and would just like to say how surprised I was to read the last review and wanted to tell everyone that we did not experience this 'interesting welcome'. My husband was cycling from Lands’ End to John O Groats and this was his last overnight accommodation before completing the... More

Only having to drive a short distance between Loch Ness and Tain, we arrived at Dunbius Guest House at 12h00 on the day we were supposed to check in, and although in the back of our minds we were aware that we might be a bit early, we decided to try and check in nonetheless. In our experience, most b&b's... More

Under normal circumstances we would not have responded to this review but felt compelled to dispel of any misconceptions of our breakfasts. Yes indeed the four guests did arrive at our B&B, and we would like to add it was before 12 noon on the day of check-in, (the reviewer’s holiday notes were obviously inaccurate on that day). We were... More

Ending our 2 week trip through the Highlands, our last call was at Tain. This B&B was outstanding. The warm welcome, the perfect room and the delicious breakfast will bring us back next time we are in Scotland. So without hesitation, we recommend Dunbuis Guest House. I + W Macpherson, Switzerland

There is not enough space to write all of the good things about this bed and breakfast. The proprietors are two of the nicest people on the planet period. The breakfast is outstanding. The accomodations are perfect. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Tain!!

Clean and comfortable accommodation with friendly and helpful host and hostess. The attention to detail is noticeable and much appreciated. Super views from the breakfast room. Recommended.

Have just stayed for 2 nights with my wife and found everything to be just what was required with added touches to make your stay even more enjoyable. Our hosts Kelvin & Carole made us feel very welcome and at ease. Our room was well appointed with everything you would need plus a few well thought out extras that you... More

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay at Dunbius. It was our 1st stay at a B&B, so we had no idea what to expect. But we were very pleasantly surprised. The bedroom was very clean and comfortable - with a great view. We really enjoyed breakfast on all of the 3 mornings we were there. (the scrambled eggs... More

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying for two nights @ Kelvin's and Carole's B&B. Dunbius House was the first B&B either of us had stayed at and the bar has been set quite high for other B&B stays. We were made to feel very welcome, and also received slices of a fresh loaf. Our room was immaculate... More
