Lovely house and garden. We had a family reunion and had plenty of space for games and children’s activities. The kitchen was well appointed having everything we needed. The garden was great and the house within easy walking distance of the town.

We had an amazing family holiday exploring Scotland. Beautiful walks within 20 minutes, views of the mountains, friendly local pub and we also lucked out with the weather!!Kids and dog enjoyed the garden on the rare occasion we were at the house. The house was so well kitted out for all our needs, including stair gates, high chairs and cot bed. Couldn’t have asked for a better location slightly out of busy Aviemore but close enough for some really great days out. Only 10 minutes from highland wildlife park which the whole family enjoyed.

This is a great place to holiday with family. Treetops is a comfortable and well laid out house with a lovely outlook. There is immediate access to great walks and is close enough to pop into the centre of the village for shops and pubs. We ventured up as far as Elgin and Logie Steading near Forres on day trips, but our young grandchildren were just as happy visiting Landmark at Carrbridge. Recommend all of the above and Treetops is a super, warm and welcoming home from home to return to.
