“Blairgorm Croft is in an ideal ...”

Blairgorm Croft is in an ideal position for visiting so many places - Highland Wildlife Park, Osprey Centre, Aviemore, Loch Morlich, Cairngorm, Whisky distilleries, Strathspey Railway, Tomintoul, Nairn beach and so many other places. The setting is peaceful and relaxed with everything you need in the house and beautiful areas to sit outside and enjoy the wildlife and scenery. Nearby villages and scenery are all different and each has a different history. Food was excellent for all dietary requirements in a wide selection of places to eat. An ideal place for a holiday whatever the weather or ages of holiday makers. Lots to see and do.

This cottage is so well equipped it was a pleasure to stay in. As a family of 5 ( 3 children under 12) it was in the perfect setting that allowed us to relax, the kids to explore and gave us easy access to the Cairngorms and the coast.

The owners of the property met us on our arrival as they have been upgrading their heating system. The couple gave us a warm welcome, were friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Charming little cottage in an extremely picturesque part of the world.

“Fantastic views and beautiful cottage”

Just back after a spending a relaxing week at this lovely croft. It has 3 double bedrooms one with an on suite, the other two have wash basins. The croft was lovely and warm as we had snow and storm Henry during our stay, and wifi, dishwasher, washer dryer and a large screen tv, it has all mod cons. Very peaceful off the beaten track. Local woods to walk in, and plenty to do near by. The RSPB Osprey Centre is just 5 miles away where we saw red squirrels. Grantown on Spay is also just 5 miles away and Avimore 12 miles. I really enjoyed my time at the croft and would like to return on day.

“A lovely restored croft in a beautiful place!”

My friend and I had an amazing holiday staying in this lovely, clean and tidy croft with excellent facilities. The conservatory living room has spectacular views and was perfect for relaxing in after a long day out and about; It has an exceptionally large wall mounted flat-screen TV. The kitchen and dining room is good for preparing meals and easy to move around each other. The beds were comfy and we slept well. There is parking space for at least two cars; the garden is large with views of the forest. This cottage is dog friendly although we didn’t take one ourselves. Blairgorm Croft is approx. 1.5 miles from the fairly quiet village of Nethy Bridge where there is a shop and hotel nearby and plenty of walks too even though we didn’t do any!. Aviemore is approx. 12 miles away with a vast array of shops, activities and restaurants. Aviemore is a 20 minute drive away which has a vast array of shops, activities and restaurants. Communication from the owners was also fantastic. A great find! Places we visited and thoroughly enjoyed as photographers were: * Loch Garten & Osprey Centre, just 5 miles along the road; we visited here sometimes twice a day, we got to so see red squirrels, crested tits, woodpeckers and numerous other birds. *Highland wildlife Parks *The Cairngorm Reindeer Herd *Cairngorm Funicular Railway
