Description
Ulla Dhu is a charming, semi-detached cottage located on a working farm on the outskirts of Nethy Bridge, Highlands.
A cottage in the Cairngorms National Park, this lovely abode has a contemporary interior and is ideally located for a family of four's countryside retreat, providing off-road parking, outdoor seating, and local amenities a short distance away.
The area is very popular for all sports, birdwatching, fishing, and walking, with the Speyside Way passing through the farm.
Be welcomed into the bright and airy open-plan living space with a fully-equipped kitchen, dining table for four with plush seating, and a sitting area with Smart TV with Sky, DVD player, DVDs, games, books and a Bluetooth speaker.
A second sitting room is also beautifully appointed with cushioned seats, sofa bed, and a TV and selection of games to spend quality time with your loved ones.
Completing the ground floor is an attractive shower room with a spacious walk-in shower, while the family bathroom is upstairs to unwind with a bubble bath.
You'll also find two bedrooms, a double (with pull out single bed) and a twin, each with storage and hanging up space, bedside lamps, and stylish colour schemes.
Start your mornings with a coffee in your private garden with outdoor seating, before venturing out to explore this fabulous National Park.
In Nethy Bridge, you'll find a convenience store, Nethy House Cafe, and Nethybridge Hotel, whilst the surrounding attractions include Castle Roy, Loch Garten for forest trails and birdlife, and plenty of walking and cycle paths to explore.
You'll be a short distance from the start of the Speyside Whisky Trail, the RSPB Scotland Loch Garten Nature Centre, and Landmark Forest Adventure Park with a host of activities for the whole family to enjoy.

What guests are saying
We enjoyed our stay at Ulla Dhu.
The cottage was clean, warm, and welcoming, this was enhanced by the owners who left a welcome gift & a bottle of milk. Were we also visited by one of the owners on our 2nd night of our stay to see how we were settling in & to check that everything was okay. I cannot find any way in which to criticise the accommodation, it was pretty much as described on the site. It is handy for many attractions in this beautiful area yet far enough from the road to be quiet & peaceful. The car parking is more than adequate, even if you have more than one car. We stay in at least one holiday cottage every year & this one would be in the top three of the ones we have stayed in.
Clean and comfortable, very well equipped.
Owner lives nearby. Good access road and nicely situated for lots of places to visit. We hope to return soon.
Susan & Tamara provided everything needed for our stay at Ulla Dhu.
We would say it is one of the best equipped cottages we have stayed in. The cottage was clean & beautifully decorated throughout. Susan called on us to check we had everything we needed & to give us some information about the area. The arrival treats were a lovely touch. We would highly recommend Ulla Dhu for a stay in Speyside.
