Unable to use washing machine when we arrived as the door had been shut and it absolutely stank of mould. The door seal was thick with mould. Had to do a 90 degree wash and thoroughly clean the door seal and then left the door open to let it air. Only then was it acceptable to use. Also the base of the iron was coming away and there was no PAT label on it. I emailed the management company about these issues but they never bothered to reply. It did say to phone them or you could put it in the book as a fault. I thought that I'd email them to give them the heads up before the next customers arrived so that they could get it sorted. The mattress was extremely soft but did give a good night's sleep. It was good that the heating was available at any time and was easy to adjust. The welcome voucher was generous. Overall a nice cottage but the little things that needed attention put us off

We thoroughly enjoyed our week staying at Caberfeidh. A lovely little cottage which was comfortable and well equipped. The wildlife in the garden was a highlight, I have never seen so many different birds in one place before. It was really nice that binoculars were provided by the owner. I would recommend this property for a quiet relaxing getaway.

Really enjoyed our stay at Caberfeidh. Great to have such a variety of wildlife visiting the garden and appreciated bird food being available when we arrived. The setting of the cottage with walks from the door through a beautiful forest was lovely. The cottage was an excellent base to explore the Cairngorm Mountains and visit local villages.We would hope to return.
