by Steve – June 2025Inverness is a small city with a laid-back feel, sitting on the River Ness and surrounded by Highland scenery. The city centre is walkable, with a mix of independent shops, pubs and restaurants, plus a castle perched above it all. It's a great base for exploring further afield, but also pleasant in its own right for a relaxed day or two.
Is it easy to park here?
Is this a place good to visit on a rainy day?
