This is a beautiful area of Scotland no matter what your interests are. The house itself is surrounded by grouse moor and is set close to the River Spey. Not to mention, there's brown trout fishing on the doorstep in Lochindorb itself, everyone will love this house.

In addition to the ruined Wolf of Badenoch Castle on the loch, there is lots in the area for those who have a historical interest. Including Ballindalloch Castle, one of the most excellent surviving examples of a Scottish Baronial Castle that draws in crowds from around the globe to visit this 'Pearl of the North' (22 miles away). There is also the National Trust for Scotland's Brodie Castle, a majestic pink castle with a quirky and fascinating history that would look at home in a Disney princess film (18 miles away).

The more energetic can enjoy the many picturesque walks ranging from the high peaks of the Cairngorms, the National Park is only 8 miles away. Alternatively, you can stroll along the river banks, and golfers can test their skills on the numerous first-class courses in the area. There are distilleries to visit, beaches to walk along, snow sports, water sports and horse riding to be enjoyed and beautiful countryside to be explored, but nothing compares with the sound of lapwings, the smell of warm heather and the total calm and tranquillity to be enjoyed sitting in the garden of this beautiful house. This cottage provides the perfect self-catering holiday accommodation to explore the fantastic Highlands of Scotland.

Tirriemore is an exceptional property, very comfortable in all respects. The setting is stunning, so peaceful and amazingly relaxing. We plan to return! The new drive to the A939 made access much easier although an SUV or 4x4 would still be desirable given the length of the unmade track.

As always it was a perfect holiday in beautiful surroundings and an outstandingly comfortable and immaculate house thanks to the owners. This year there was even more wildlife than ever - geese with goslings, ducks with ducklings, lots of peewits and house martins, black rabbits and even a golden eagle. Cant wait for our next visit.

This is an amazing property and has an amazing view. The cottage itself is fantastic with lots of space and things to do. You do not need to leave the property once you are stocked up as there are plenty of walks within the property surroundings. We had an amazing time and are looking to return next year as it is so relaxing.

Our fourth visit to this very special home in a wonderful location-although possibly the drive across the track from the road may put some off! The views are superb-the light on the hills was constantly changing and the weather was wonderful.

Nice cottage with sensational views. Very comfortable, a great log fire, DVD's, books and games galore to enjoy. Space for all the family to relax and the dog too. Negative - the access road to the cottage is very poor, we sustained damage to the front of our car, Id say its better suited for a 4 x 4 vehicle. Beds comfortable and warm but some mattRead moreress protectors were very stained which spoilt our final impression of the cottage. (permission granted to use all of review only- do not edit) Hide
