Fantastic cabin, in a beautiful part of the Highlands. We felt, comfortable, warm and at home during our stay. Hot tub was well received, particularly great when sky is clear at night or when snowing. Surrounding landscape beautiful, it snowed 3 days straight and added to the experience. Would definitely go again. Thank you to the hosts.

Lovely lodge everything you need, location is beautiful surrounded by the Cairngorm mountains river runs along side if site. Plenty of wildlife counted 13 deer in field opposite one evening. Local amenities 10 minutes drive plenty of walks for the dog. Hot tub is a bonus after long walks.
