Inverness is one of Europe's newest and fastest growing cities. It lies at the mouth of the River Ness - from where it gets its Gaelic based name Inbhir Nis meaning ‘mouth (or confluence) of the Ness’. The local economy is largely tourism driven, although there are a number of major employers in construction and healthcare. The city of Inverness is also the administrative centre of the Highland Council.
Most of the pubs and clubs are in the old part of the city, around Church Street whilst restaurants are found along both sides of the River Ness. The leafy suburbs of Crown, Drummond and Culduthel are but a short walk away.The booking service is only for quality Bed and Breakfast Accommodation, Guesthouses and small Hotels close to the city centre or in the most pleasant suburbs
You can find your desired location on the home page map and easily establish availability in a range of differently graded accommodation in order to find an ideal city centre BandB accommodation base from which to explore the sights and culture of central Inverness, the Caledonian Canal, or the administrative centre of Highland District.
The Bouverie Bed and Breakfast Association independently grades each B&B accommodation so that guests can easily choose between various facilities, locations and tariffs
Bouverie Bed and Breakfast Association is a cooperative of Guesthouses, private B & B and owner-occupied accommodation that shares overflow internet traffic and enquiries amongst its members. The intention is to make the booking process for clients simple by limiting the information on association properties to a précis of accommodation type, with facilities symbols and transparent availability at the first point of contact.
Further information in relation to the accommodation can be found by direct access to the accommodation's own web site, which will use the association's availability calendar software, booking form software and will have a return logo to the Association's home page on each web page.
The Association only invites quality accommodation to join so as to build the reputation of the association as a quality brand. However the intention is to attempt to sign up accommodation in all areas of Scotland where accommodation may be required for both tourism and business. In areas where the accommodation need is high but the supply of suitable accommodation is limited, the Association will still attempt to sign up the best options.
The Association will engage in Internet marketing and Search Engine Optimisation to promote web sites that name the eight largest cities in Scotland. Extra information in relation to activities in each of the website cities will be available to assist guests and assist search engine ranking, although all properties will be possible to access from any of the web sites. The Association will not limit itself to accommodation properties in cities. There will be discounts available to accommodation providers in rural areas but the main thrust of marketing will be to reach clients that seek accommodation in urban areas.
The Association encourages all its members to engage in independent internet marketing. There is no charge to any member when a booking is made that is generated independently from the Association web sites. The Association will also encourage all accommodation to provide broadband internet access and VOIP telephones in all the rooms and to expect clients that book through the Association to be computer sophisticated.
