Our 4th visit and everything perfect, as usual. A storm was blowing outside, but we were very comfor

Love the peace and quiet of this apartment, yet the village setting is perfect, with the shop, Post Office, Hotel and Pizza Restaurant all nearby. Despite the weather we managed several walks through the woods. We heard that our house at home had lost power and would be off for 2 days. Iona said we could stay on another night. That wasn’t necessary as SSEB managed to get our power back. We will return next year.

We must make a significant complaint - we should have stayed longer!

High Terrace was delightful in every respect. Comfortable, cosy, well-appointed; elegantly and eclectically decorated with some lovely quirky touches! The whisky collection and honesty system was a greatly appreciated bonus.

This apartment is perfect for a stay in the Cairngorms and has everything we required..

We love staying here. The apartment is very comfortable and the bread, eggs, milk… are always appreciated. This was our second visit in 2 months and it will become our ‘get away’ break when we need to see the mountains. Cannot be faulted.

The house was very comfortable, spacious and bright.

We enjoyed how we could walk from the house in several directions and enjoy many of the great footpaths. The bed was very comfortable. The house was cosy and log burner was a bonus!
