This is a lovely cottage in a stunning location by the river Dulnain. The heating was simple to control and the cottage is compact and warm. The garden is small but home to an enormous variety of wildlife eg. red squirrels, badgers, hawks and a myriad of garden birds and was the main feature of our holiday. We kept the feeders well supplied but I would say that to anyone with mobility issues care is needed as the garden is quite uneven. Grantown on Spey is a lovely town with one of the best independent bookshops we have ever found. The Speyside Centre cakes and coffee are superb and we were frequent visitors. The cottage is immaculately kept and the owners are very helpful and we have no hesitation in recommending.

Loved the cottage. It was cosy and comfortable. We had badgers in the garden at night and a great range of birds at the bird feeder. Would definitely recommend for nature lovers. Great walks on your doorstep or within a short drive.

The Cottage is well placed, on a fairly quiet road (well-signposted), as a centre for a holiday as Grantown and Aviemore are easily accessible. It is also very easy to get to Inverness or Kingusie, as well as places like Boat of Garten (RSPB Reserve). Just down the road is The Peyside Centre with excellent breakfasts! The Cottage is small with all amenities and easily controlled heating. It isn’t overlooked and very quiet. The lounge is comfortable and well-equipped. The whole place is also very clean. At the rear is a small garden with bird feeders and at night, after we put peanuts out, we had a visiting Badger. This is a great place to get away from daily life and we would recommend the Cottage after a refreshing break.
