Renovated B&B in the centre of Tain. Nice room, friendly atmosphere and good breakfast.

it was modern, fresh and comfortable. breakfast was excellent.

Wonderful host, fabulous breakfast and great location. The room was spacious, super clean and the amenities were great. Had a nice chat with the host, he is very welcoming and friendly.

Shandwick House is relatively easy to find - near the centre of Tain and easily accessible by car and a short walk from the train station. There is a large private car-park which is free. I was met by Dennis, the owner who is very friendly and helpful - he recommended a few local places for food and drink. There is also a large supermarket a short distance away. The room was located at the top of a few stairs - small but quiet, very clean and comfortable with a modern en-suite shower room. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was good. The full Scottish breakfast was as good as I have had anywhere and cooked to order - Dennis asks guests to pre-order breakfast the night before. In summary I would highly recommend Shandwick House as very good value accommodation and would not hesitate to stay there again.

Superb value for money for stopover north. Huge room and breakfast. Walking distance to eateries. Loads of parking.

The choice of breakfast is good. Fruit, cereals, fruit juice and a great choice of cooked options. The owners are very friendly and are able to offer advice for things to do in the local area. Take away food can be eaten in the dining room in the evening with crockery, etc all available and Dennis even does the washing up after you!

We thought the room was great, the breakfast room amenities were well equipped and the breakfast provided was delicious. The owners Dennis abd Clara were great hosts. The bed and breakfast place was located in the lovely town of Tain close to places of interest

Hosts are great, super clean and great breakfast and location. If you are in this area, book early and do not miss out! This is the best place we stayed in during our 14 day trip. Can’t recommend more. Note to hosts: thanks again for helping us out with the gas!

High quality choices, fresh fruit and top notch cooked breakfast

Very convenient guest house close to all facilities. Excellent breakfast.
