Incredible Views

Absolutely incredible stay, we absolutely loved the homely feel of the cottage and the local area (especially Urquhart Castle) gave stunning views! It was such a good location for getting to other areas such as Inverness and Culloden, would highly recommend!!

Amazing Home Base for Traveling the Highlands

This place was such a spectacular find. We used it as our base for traveling through the highlands and it was perfect. Amazingly well-stocked kitchen and such cool wildlife on the property!We saw the elusive pine marten while having a glass of wine in the sun room one evening and were so excited (didn't get a photo unfortunately)!With it being in a remote area, there are also quite a lot of spiders, which was hard for the arachnophobe in the group, so make sure if you stay to keep windows closed or only open the ones with screens, even for a minute.Highly recommend!

Beautiful cottage

This is an absolutely lovely cottage with everything you could possibly need to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The beds are very comfortable and the house is so cosy. Susan is a fantastic host and was so helpful. She provided a dog crate which we were incredibly grateful for as it saved a lot of space in the car. The location is great as it’s incredibly peaceful with lovely views but a large Tesco (along with lots of restaurants and bowling etc) are less than 15 minutes away. I would highly recommend staying in this house.

Great stay

The apartment was perfect for us - very clean, comfortable and warm. There was everything you would need. Ideal for traveling around the area and a nice walk in to Aviemore centre. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Aird Cottage

Had a lovely 4 days at the cottage. It is very remote, but worth the trip for the lovely views and cosy feel. Property was amazingly well stocked and everything had been thought of.
