What's it really like?
I've just accepted a job starting in June in Inverness so will be relocating from Dundee.
Just looking for any tips/pointers, area's to avoid e.t.c?
I'll be renting initially (Which if any PH'ers have a flat/house or know of anything going c£500pm, up to 600!) please to get in touch!

Coming from Dundee you'll feel right at home in the ferry I would think.
On a more serious note,you won't get much other than a 2 bed flat for that sort of cash a month.Are you coming with family or on your own?

We were in number 3 in this block when we moved to the town from up north,nice enough but not all that big.Pretty quiet and there's shops nearby,there's also a pub right on the doorstep but we never heard much noise from it in the 6 months we were there.

Cradlehall is just along the road from me really.Have a look at this one,maybe better than the Culloden one.

Aye it's a bit much,there's not all that much to see in those flats either,we stayed in one just the same in Murray Terrace for a short while too.
Actually,if you can find one for rent in Murray Terrace or Miller Street or maybe it's Miller Road can't mind now but the flats are all the same anyway so you would have an idea of the basic layout if there's photos on any of the adverts.

There is a few places around the Smithton area.

2 bed in Murray Terr http://www.hspc.co.uk/details.asp?id=46934 they also have one in tower hill which is also close.
Smithton is fine up where the flats are,we were there for 6 month before moving to a bigger flat just down the road in Culloden.
We had no problems other than the fact that the flat was damp,I got the feeling most of them were.
There seemed to be a lot of new people to the town up there,like us.Most of the folk that have moved down from my home area were in Smithton first.

If I was choosing I would opt for Towerhill. Certainly closer for you to walk to your work. Only 1 bed but closer http://www.hspc.co.uk/details.asp?id=46847

What's the general consensus on Murray Terrace? Yes or no? Seems nice and close for work!

Murray Terrace is where I was talking about in the above post.Check very very carefully for damp if you go for a look at any there.We had no problems other than the fact that the flat was damp,I got the feeling most of them were.

I lived in Cradlehall for around 4 years, really good area but lacking a pub
Stop moanin, perfectly good pub at the Kep. Hhmmm organise a Inv meet at the Kep so the lad can get to know folkies once he moves. Bohally said:
Cheers - Was just a bit wary when it was the cheapest flat that came up in IV2!
Goodness sake, thats the start of my postcode! I have lived there for about 16 years now (well, studying in Aberdeen now but still) and found Cradlehall to be a lovely place. No problems at all, and same goes for Culloden where I went to high school.
We should get an Inverness meet / run sorted soon, there seem to be a few of us up this way!
