Good location to access the walk along the front or to get into the High street. Would highly recommend for families or older couples.

We would love to go back as my brother lives in Nairn and it suited us very well. Our only request to make it perfect would be â¦â¦ the mattresses could be better in both bedrooms and the big sofa in the lounge could do with new base cushions to make that comfy. Finally as it would be difficult to heat the lounge with the radiator alone, a few more logs and coal would be appreciated in the winter months. We couldnât get logs from the places suggested in the cottage. These things wouldnât stop us going back to the cottage but they would make a difference to the quality of our stay and the number of stars we would award it.

The property was very clean and tidy and is well maintained and well equipped. It is perfectly situated being a 2 minute walk from the beach and 5 minute walk to Nairn town centre.
