    unique and comfortable cabin, perfect for a quiet getaway in the woods. Had everything we needed for a self-catering stay, including a well-equipped kitchenette. The location was peaceful and the surrounding area offered plenty of outdoor activities. Highly recommended for a relaxing break.

    Poor wifi connection.

    We stayed at Glamness for two nights and absolutely loved it. The location was perfect for our hikes and walks, with easy access to supermarkets and the airport. The hotel provided free parking, which was a bonus. The surroundings were peaceful and quiet, surrounded by beautiful trees. The space inside our pod was cozy and had all the necessary amenities, including a TV with Netflix. The hot water worked well and there was enough storage for our luggage. it was the perfect little place to come back to after a long day exploring.

    Can recommend this hotel.

    Our stay at Glamness was truly a unique and unforgettable experience. The converted shipping container we stayed in was modern and located in a great spot just outside the city center. We loved the quirky vibe of the hotel.

    One issue we encountered was the lack of clear instructions for the facilities. We had trouble figuring out how to use the heating system and kitchen appliances.

    The setup was great, with a short walk from the carpark to the containers. The use of fence panels provided enough privacy to enjoy the sun outdoors. Inside, we found everything we needed, including comfortable beds that didn't require any additional construction. The location was perfect, with a 5-minute drive to Tesco & Asda supermarkets, making self-catering a breeze. being just a 20-minute drive from the airport and a quick 10-minute drive into town was very convenient.

    While there were two plates, bowls, and cups, it would have been handy to have a few more mugs and microwaveable dishes. It was also a bit disappointing that the description mentioned an oven, but there was only a microwave and grill available.

    I had a lovely stay at the Glamness Is Adults Only villa in Inverness. The staff were friendly and the location was perfect if you have a car, with easy access to Inverness and Dores. The villa is surrounded by woodland, providing a peaceful atmosphere that is great for couples. I loved how it felt like we were away from everything, without the noise and crowds of families and kids. The villa was clean and tidy, and had everything we needed, including plates, cutlery, towels, and even complimentary tea and coffee. It was a wonderful place to relax and recuperate, away from the bustling traffic of the town.

    Everything was great.

    I recently had a unique experience staying at a converted shipping container at a stunning adults-only villa. The location was peaceful and the accommodation was immaculately presented, with a comfortable bed and modern facilities. The heating system was fantastic, ensuring a cozy stay, and the gas BBQ area was a perfect spot to relax. The grounds were beautifully maintained, providing a tranquil atmosphere. The staff were helpful when needed but not intrusive. The location was ideal, just a short drive from Inverness and close to attractions like Loch Ness and Culloden. I highly recommend this unique and affordable stay for anyone looking for a memorable experience.

    We stayed in a centrally located container with nice views, which was quiet and comfortable. the facilities worked well, including the kettle, toaster, hob, shower, and fridge. There were plenty of plug sockets and provided cutlery, plates, and cups. the bed was high, allowing for storage space underneath. we enjoyed our stay and would consider returning.

    The price was not justified for what we received. We encountered a damp wall and duvet, which was unpleasant.

    The location of the hotel in a beautiful garden area was a great advantage. Guests mentioned that it was near a supermarket, making it convenient for any necessary supplies. one thing to note is that it can be difficult to get a taxi to the location when going into the city centre.

    One negative aspect of the hotel is that the floors could have been swept better, but given the dusty environment outside, this is inevitable.

    Location provides a countryside feel while still being close to Inverness. Clean facilities with attention to detail. Lovely walk to nearby grocery store. Serenaded by birds during meals.

    We had a brilliant time at this unique converted shipping container hotel. The room was cosy with underfloor heating and a comfortable bed. The location was beautiful with peaceful woodland surroundings and a small river nearby. The staff were welcoming and helpful. Great value for money!

    The menu for breakfast could be improved with more options.

    Spotlessly clean, modern facilities. Heating controlled perfectly. Little kitchenette with tea, coffee, and biscuits. Peaceful grounds with BBQ area. Comfortable bed. Outdoor seating with privacy. Convenient parking area. Close to Inverness, Loch Ness, and Culloden.

    Felt very lucky, no complaints.

    I had a fantastic experience staying at the unique converted shipping containers at Glamness. The facilities were modern and spotlessly clean, and the heating system was excellent. The bed was comfortable and the shower was top-notch. The outdoor seating area provided privacy and a peaceful atmosphere. The location was great, with a beautiful woodland walk nearby and easy access to Inverness, Loch Ness, and Culloden. I highly recommend this hotel for a cozy and affordable stay.

    While there was no outside rubbish bin, I managed by using a poly bag. The floor heating took a while to warm up, but it was not a major issue once I figured out the controls.

    We had a bit of a hiccup upon arrival as there was a temporary power outage in our container. However, the owner quickly resolved the issue and arranged for a delicious dinner on the house. They even found us a lovely local B&B for the night and personally picked us up in the morning. Despite the minor inconvenience, the prompt and thoughtful response from the owner truly impressed us. we highly recommend this unique and adults-only experience.
