Good cottage and value for money. Would be even better with softer towels and a heated towel rail in bathroom.

Isla’s cottage was a comfortable, cosy well-equipped cottage for two of us with two dogs. Good position in Fishertown, Nairn, close to the beach and harbour. Easy walking distance to local amenities and short drive to supermarket & fuel. Good base for exploring the area.
