About this property

This lovely traditional end-terrace cottage is ideally situated in the friendly highland village of Tomintoul, Aberdeenshire, with easy access to local services. The cottage is located on the main street and the owner lives in the adjoining cottage. The cottage would suit a couple, a small family group or group of friends who will appreciate the location of their holiday home in the scenic Cairngorm National Park. This delightful cottage provides cosy and comfortable accommodation and the ground floor has a comfortable sitting room with a dining area where a welcoming flame-effect fire ensures cosy nights indoors. The well-equipped kitchen has everything required to prepare tasty meals. There are three bedrooms with a single at ground floor level along with the shower room. To the rear is a large lawned garden available for you to relax in on the warmer days, enjoying a relaxing drink whilst planning exciting days ahead. It is just a short stroll to the village square and pretty village green where the local hotels, shops and Post Office can be found. Visitors to the cottage will appreciate the excellent location and perhaps they will choose to follow the rather dramatic road east and visit the lovely villages of Ballater and Braemar in scenic Royal Deeside. Perhaps a visit into Aviemore with its wonderful opportunities to indulge in outdoor pursuits would be appealing to the more active visitors. Alternatively, there is always the famous Malt Whisky Trail, which not only provides a wonderful tour but the many distilleries along the route are excellent places to visit. This beautiful and unspoilt part of Scotland will tick all the boxes and ensure a great holiday base. This 'wee' cottage will prove to be a home from home. EPC Rating: Band E

    It is quaint, clean and very homely. My family had a great week there through Feb halfterm with lots of Skiing at The Lecht. It had everything we needed and a very helpful owner next door. We would definitely stay again and recommend.

    Did struggle with the heating been controlled by the owner in the house next door, but we managed to get the house warm, as the temperature outside dropped to -12 at night, and we did have a lot of snow. It wasn't over clean, with dust and cobwebs and food behind the kitchen bin. Needs a bit of TLC as a bit dated, and carpets a bit worn thin. But the double bed was super comfy, so that was lovely. We didn't pay much, so I surpose you get what you pay for. Shower is a bit steady, and due to me have long thick hair took a while to wash the shampoo out, while hoping the hot water didn't run out. But still had a great stay. And the owner was lovely and chatty. Great location for brilliant walks, and the local pub was great to pop down for food and drinks. And a lovely week away with the dogs.

    There were no problems during our stay. We found the lodgings very cosy and comfortable. Tomintoul is a nice little village in a lovely wild location
