  • "The accommodation was immaculate with lots of thoughtful touches."

    Beautiful location and within 20 minutes of Aviemore, close to Newtonmore and Kingussie. Lots to see and do nearby but set in beautiful landscape. The bed was so comfortable and cozy to fall into at the end of the day and the log fire was perfect. Our second visit and we will be back again.

    So Great to hear you've enjoyed your second stay here and that you loved the location, landscape, bed and log fire. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and we look forward to welcoming you back. Kind regards, Adam & Leanne Property Owner

  • "The cottage is not only stunning but immaculate on arrival, it is extremely comfortable to relax and read a book or watch a DVD and the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in!"

    The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to cook which was super helpful! Leanne and Adam were so lovely and friendly too! The location is just as perfect as the cottage, stunning walks for the dogs, we visited Aviemore which was about a 30 min (if that) drive and it had an Aldi, Costa, lovely gift shops, lovely restaurants and some lovely Loch’s which we had some lovely walks around! This was the most perfect week away and we absolutely will be coming back here - I cannot recommend enough.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave us such lovely feedback. We are so pleased you loved Ash Cottage and found you had everything you needed in the kitchen. Lovely to hear that you slept well and loved the location. We look forward to welcoming you back.Kind regards, Adam & Leanne Property Owner

    The facilities were excellent, the cottage was clean, modern and very comfy. The location was also ideal to explore The Highlands, wit the cottage leading straight on to the A9 most destinations were within half an hour's drive. I would thoroughly recommend these cottages, especially for dog lovers.

  • "Lovely in a great setting property however (and outside of owners control) - consistent road noise from A9 and this place is only as peaceful as your close neighbours."

    On my stay immediate neighbour had 2 noisy dogs that would bark and growl every time we tried to use the outside space. Quality of accommodation is very high indeed.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are pleased that you found the setting lovely and were pleased with the quality of Ash Cottage. We are sorry to hear that during your stay the guests' 2 dogs in the next cottage were unsettled, some dogs find adjusting to new surroundings harder than others. Property Owner
