The location is just amazing. The house is beautiful and the bath with the sea with was just the cherry on top of the cake ! Helen, the owner was an amazing host. Waking up with this view of the sea is just breathtaking!

We had an excellent stay. This was our last night of an intense week exploring Scotland and it was just what we needed: a quiet and beautiful room overlooking the water. We slept to the sound of the waves. The room was well-furnished, very sunny, spotless bathroom, great towels and toiletries. Our warm host, Ellen, greeted us and showed us around and gave us lots of information of the town (Rosemarkie) and made dinner reservations for us at the restaurant at the Golf Club down the street from the b&b. Excellent. Breakfast was very good in a beautiful, sun-drenched Victorian dining room with ocean views. We were sorry we had a flight to catch and couldn’t stay an extra day.

Extremely welcoming and homely. We would not hesitate to come back and recommend too family and friends.

The room was very comfortable with a lovely view of the sea.

We loved staying here. Helen was a very gracious hostess and an amazing cook. The breakfast choice of salmon and eggs was beautiful to behold and delicious. The communal breakfast, for us, was really fun. Every morning we started our breakfast at 8:30AM and with table talk with the other guests, did not get started until 10:00AM. Everyone had suggestions and ideas of where to go in the area. AND best of all, the beds were comfortable, the views of the beach breathtaking and the living room was a comfortable place to have a "wee dram" and sit and enjoy the views. ALSO.... location was amazing!

Everything. The views from the room were wonderful. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of room in the room and in the bathroom. Very good breakfast. Excellent host.

Hostess was very friendly, room was immaculate and the breakfast was very tasty.

Lovely room beautifully decorated and very comfortable bed. Breakfast to order and perfect. Friendly helpful hosts. Amazing location, could have stayed longer.

The location was absolutely perfect - we could sea and hear the sea from our room. Our hosts were delightful, hospitable and charming. The breakfast was to die for - nothing was too much trouble.

Fantastic one night stay. Friendly and welcoming hosts, great location right on the sea front and a lovely full Scottish breakfast! The area itself has plenty to do, with lots of great outdoor activities and loads of wildlife. We were even lucky enough to see the dolphins just after we had checked out (need to update the guest book)!

Situated in the pretty coastal village of Rosemarkie on the Black Isle, near Inverness this Guest House offers charming, stylish en-suite bedrooms . It is ideally located, right on the beachfront of Rosemarie Bay with its sandy beaches a good choice of nearby eateries, a local pub, golf club, museum, church, several local shops and a beach café. Dolphins can often be spotted from some of the bedrooms or (for rooms without sea views) from the lounge, dining room or garden. Chanonry Point, famous for dolphin spotting, is only a short walk away along the beach and a Dolphin Shuttle Bus stops regularly nearby. There is also a Fairy Glen which is an RSPB sanctuary complete with 2 beautiful waterfalls. Local busses stop only a 3 minute walk away to take you to the quaint coastal town of Cromarty or right into the heart of the beautiful city of Inverness, the capital of the Highlands. Whether it’s a romantic break for two, a golfing weekend or a wildlife extravaganza, Tigh Na Mara is a great place to stay and you will be assured of a very warm welcome with lots of great memories to take away and treasure. Breakfast is currently self-service continental and can be added upon arrival.
At Tigh Na Mara t is our passion to provide the very best service that we can and to make every guest’s stay a truly enjoyable experience. When we have time, we enjoy going on long walks along the beach with our lovely Labrador dog called Beau who adores swimming in the sea. He should not bother you though as we generally keep him out of guest areas, as we know not all our guests are dog lovers... but is you do want to meet him just ask and we can arrange it:) Sometimes the seals spy on us as we play ball with the dog- it’s like they want to join in! There are so many beautiful places to explore in the area even just on foot... We love the fact that Inverness is so close by and yet we are in such an idyllic location. We often sit in the garden and hear the call of the gulls, sheep baa-ing, cows moo-ing, bees buzzing and birds singing all at the same time. It is such a wonderful place to live and we are glad to share it with you. We hope that you will stay a while and experience it for yourselves! We know that you will love it as much as we do! We highly recommend stays of more than one night to be able to fully appreciate uniqueness of the local area and all that it has to offer.
Beach, golf and dolphins are the main attractions here! Dolphins, seals, porpoises, otters and whales can all be spotted from Chanonry Point which is only a short walk away along the beach. Popular holiday activities include fishing, sailing, walking, swimming, snorkelling and kayaking… There are several lovely places to eat and drink only a few short footsteps away from Tigh Na Mara. The nearest, Crofters Bistro is only two doors down the road and it, the local Beach Café, the Plough Inn and Fortrose and Rosemarkie Golf Course all serve food. There are several more excellent eateries and watering holes within a 15-minute walk in the nearby town of Fortrose. The Highland scenery is absolutely stunning so wherever you venture roundabout, you will be in for a treat! Not to be missed is a visit to Loch Ness and the Caledonian Canal and don’t forget to visit the odd castle or two! Then there are the whiskey trails where you can also sample the local Scotch or visit the nearby Black Isle Brewery. Inverness only a few minutes drive away offers all the vibrance and culture you would expect from a city including live music, theatre, shopping and excellent cuisine and bars.
