    Unbeknown to us at the time of booking, our visit coincided with Nairn Highland Games, which might have been good if that was why we were in Nairn. The room was perhaps expensive, but the timing may have been a factor in this. Town was very busy, which meant some difficulty eating out.

    Room very comfortable and nicely furnished, Hosts extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast excellent!! Room was well supplied with local information but would have benefitted from a list of local eateries, contact details etc.

    The owners of the Washington House have conceived all the private and shared spaces with great attention to details, tastefully chosen furnishings with design elements. High-end bathroom products. Excellent and healthy continental breakfast.

    My fiance and I stayed here for four nights, we wanted a place that was outside of the busy cities but not too far from key destinations. Narim is a perfect location, and Washington House is the perfect place to stay. With only two guest rooms you get a very home-like feel. Arthur and his wife are the best hosts, inviting and warm and not to mention Connie the beautiful dog who made our stay so much more warm. They both are willing to give you any advice on destinations to go to with loads of information to go with them. The room was beautiful and large with a beautiful large bathroom. The best part in both our opinions was the fabulous breakfast we had every morning. There are a wide range of options but do not miss out on the cooked breakfasts Arthur makes himself, there was not one thing I tried that I did not love! I would come here just for his breakfasts if I could. Also do not forget to try the ice shop down the street or the Fish Tacos on the beach. Arthur will tell you all about it!

    I wish the breakfast table wasn’t joined as I quite like having time to myself without conversation in the morning.

    Breakfast was great, host was great and very flexible. I got milk when I arrived :)

    Absolutely nothing.

    Washington House is the best B&B we’ve ever had the immense pleasure of staying in. We were greeted with a warm welcome, the house is beautiful and our room was lovely and spotless. Aileen and Arthur are truly wonderful hosts; Arthur’s breakfasts were nothing short of delectable and were, along with his morning chats with us, amongst the highlights of our memorable holiday in Scotland. We couldn’t recommend Washington House highly enough.

    We had a fantastic stay at Washington House. This is one of the nicest B&Bs we have ever stayed at! The location is great; Nairn makes a great base to explore the Scottish Highlands and the area around Loch Ness. The house is beautiful, with wonderful artistic touches everywhere. It looks even better than the pictures! And the bed is super comfortable! Our hosts, Arthur and Aileen, were so warm and welcoming. We really appreciated their tips of what to see in the area. And finally, and best of all, we loved the food. Arthur’s gourmet breakfasts are now the gold standard for all future stays. :)

The room & house has a luxurious feel to it, the bed was so comfortable, we had a great sleep here. We left relaxed and refreshed after our stay. If you get the chance book this bnb do it, it’s was highlight of our stays in Scotland.
