About this place Loch Earn

Loch Earn is a small mainstream guesthouse on Culduthel Road in Inverness, operated by Shout Hotels. It is not a gay venue. Reviews are strong, at 4.7 from about 75 on Google, though that is a small sample. Culduthel Road runs uphill south of the centre, so the castle, the River Ness and the town-centre pubs are a walk of roughly 15 to 20 minutes. It works as a base for Highland day trips to Loch Ness, Culloden and beyond, ideally with a car. Confirm check-in arrangements in advance, as small guesthouses often do not have a staffed reception all day.

4.5 ⭐ Very soft comfortable beds. Check in was a bit odd, hard to find the correct building/staff to get the key. Breakfast was very nice.

Great find, rooms are stylish, top quality and immaculate. Breakfast offers a good range of cooked and continental. Few very minor niggles as this is a new business, dealt with graciously and with good humour. Would definitely recommend and return.

We had the small room with two single beds, but even that was great, perfectly adequate, and very clean. Breakfast was amazing!

Curtains and Wi-Fi were poor. Breakfast: a bit of a buffet, coffee absolutely subpar for 10 pounds: not recommended. No washing machine as advertised.

Good parking and a lovely room. Unfortunately, the large windows directly overlook busy areas used by other guests (the breakfast room and the parking area). The highlight is the excellent breakfast. Fantastic service and a huge selection. The toilet brush has seen better days – otherwise, the bathroom is very nice.
