A great little cottage just a short walk into Aviemore and ideally placed to explore the area. The garden was perfect for our dog and the cottage itself was situated in a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac. We managed some beautiful local Loch walks and travelled further afield by car. We will be back.

We would absolutely recommend this delightful, well equipped, little bungalow in a wonderful setting, bordering Aviemore steam railway with forest and river walks from the front doorstep. There are views of the magnificent Cairngorm mountains from the lounge window, ensuring the sight of a glorious sunrise most mornings.The weather was snowy, icy & very cold but we were cosy, comfortable and warm - underfloor heating in the large bathroom, amazing!Our little cockerpoo loved the large, fenced back garden, leaving doggy prints in the deep covering of snow.Aviemore is easily accessed by a 10 min country walk, or a little longer, through the estate and over the railway to the main road. There is a well stocked Coop on the latter route. Route 7 is an excellent cafe nearby.A perfect week's holiday thank you!
