Having the best of both worlds, this lovely property is central to all the amenities of Grantown-on-Spey and yet is close to the Cairngorms National Park.

The main bedroom has a double bed, with the second bedroom having 2ft 6in twin beds.
Outside, the enclosed garden is large enough for pets and children to play safely in, whilst the picnic bench is a good spot to have a barbecue on warmer evenings, or to sit with a morning coffee and plan your day ahead. A shed is available for bike or sports equipment, and there is ample private parking.
Situated half way between the Cairngorm and Lecht ski centres, where you can ski and snowboard, or climb and walk, in some of Scotland’s most scenic areas. Amongst the many activities available are mountain biking, kayaking, gorge walking, clay pigeon shooting, golf, fishing, tennis, swimming and zip lining to name just a few. Why not take a trip along the world’s only Malt Whisky Trail, or visit some of the lovely fishing villages dotted along the Moray coastline. Visit the nearby Craggan Outdoor Centre just on the edge of the town, where you can experience a large range of outdoor pursuits.
Slightly further afield, you can visit the Landmark Forest Adventure Park in Carrbridge, the Highland Wildlife Park at Kingussie, or take a trip up into the Cairngorms mountain range on the funicular railway and see the reindeer in the Cairngorm Centre, or board the steam train for an exciting trip through the beautiful countryside. The vibrant town of Aviemore is just 15 miles away, where you can enjoy a wide range of restaurants, pubs and shops.

Well sighted beside woods for dog walks. Large enclosed garden. On one floor though steps to door. No central heating but lots of heaters. Not sure how warm it would be in winter, but fine in April. Comfortable garden furniture.

Dear cottage has everything as advertised the entrance is via 4 steps with only 1 handrail.The bathroom was pleasantly decorated with a shower over the bat, but it is quite high to climb into the bath, there is no place to hang your clothes just a free standing wooden towel rail.The cleaners cupboard had a sign don’t touch therefore we didn’t attempt to clean before we departed as we would normally do.The kitchen lacked storage space for food the electric hob was slow and the washer dryer took forever to dry the clothes. The beds weren’t all that comfortable especially the single beds in the 2nd bedroom.The garden furniture gave options of seating locations depending on time of day.Note there are bees in the bush adjacent to the French window seating, they didn’t bother us though.Grantown is a quiet location with good walks for a dog
