Ach-Na-Sidhe, hotel in Dores

On the Loch Ness Glen hilltop, the peaceful Ach-Na-Sidhe has beautiful views of the countryside. With free onsite parking, the city center of Inverness is just 10 minutes' drive away.

We were absolutely blown away by how beautiful the property and the home was right from the start. We pulled in and with some helpful directions mentioned in advance from the host, we found the place right away. Being there felt like we were in a movie or something, it is SO quiet and serene. We were met immediately by Marsaili, who was BEYOND nice and accommodating, we were made to feel like a part of the family right away. The house and our room/bathroom were perfectly taken care of and we just couldn't get over how gorgeous the whole property and home was. The cat, Lucy, was adorable and cuddly and is still one of my highlights of my trip for me, such a sweetheart! Our time here was too short at only two nights, I wanted to move in and stay forever! We didn't eat any food because of scheduling conflicts with traveling early in the morning etc. but her dining room was set up to perfection and the most AMAZING view out of the windows and I am sure the food was delicious. This was our favorite stay by far out of our 3 week UK + Ireland adventure, it was flawless. Thank you so much to Marsaili for hosting us and making our trip so special!

The view of Loch Ness from our room and from the restaurant was excellent. The breakfast was excellent, and I really appreciate the veggie full Scottish option. Veggie haggis was a treat. The staff were competent, friendly and welcoming. The packed lunch they prepared was superb also.

    Not the largest place we’ve visited, it’s on the less busy...

    Not the largest place we’ve visited, it’s on the less busy side of Loch Ness so very quiet, with one restaurant so book early if you want an evening meal. The food was good and the price very reasonable

    Location incredible. 100 feet from the edge of Loch Ness. All rooms have balconies looking out over the loch. Warm and comfy. Big rooms. Short 10 minute drive to the village of Dorrs where the The Dorrs Inn (right on the lake) serve local produce including a good haggis. Accommodation provides self service continental breakfast. They also provide high end frozen meals for those who may not want to travel to the pub in the village, just pop in the microwave. Lovely staff. Fly fishing free from the shore, caught a fish.

    Everything. The care Marsalli puts in to the home and her guests is next level. I wish we could have stayed for a week. Our room was huge and comfortable. Breakfast was phenomenal (may I recommend the porridge?) and the animals all over the farm and house were a welcome treat. If you’re looking for a warm, Scottish country experience close to Inverness and all it offers, you must stay here.

    We had a lovely couple if days. The host family are all extremely friendly inviting you into their beautiful home as if you are a relative. The room was gorgeous, well-equipped, clean, spacious with a comfy bed for a great nights sleep. The location is delightful just a short distance from Loch Ness and surrounded by amazing scenery. I thoroughly recommend staying here.

    This place was wonderful, super comfortable and immaculate. The owner/hostess was helpful, friendly and just fantastic. Close to Loch Ness, but just off the beaten path enough to be perfect. Excellent breakfast and the room was exquisite. I wish I could give it even more stars than 10.

    The room was in immaculate condition. The host was charismatic and knows her stuff around. She provided some fascinating tidbits about the history of the place and the loch in general. The food and the views at nearby pub Dores Inn is also highly recommended.

    The location was perfect, right on Loch Ness for Nessie spotting. The room was comfortable and clean, well-appointed and functional. It was very quiet and tranquil. Our host, John, could not have been more friendly or helpful.

    The location is serene and just nestled in a peaceful pocket of Dores. Overlooking the Loch. The birds chirping and the calmness of the place is unreal. Good heating and decent breakfast. Best B&B ever!
