“Tay Villa sits within easy reach of Inverness's centre, a quiet spot where comfort is clearly a priority; the rooms are kept immaculately tidy and include thoughtful touches like microwaves and mini-fridges. Waking to a well-prepared breakfast is a pleasant way to begin the day, enhancing the sense of a homey, well-cared-for establishment that feels quite out of the ordinary for its value.”
