This stone holiday cottage ticks all the boxes if you want peace and quiet, stunning views and off-the-beaten-track in the Highlands. It’s an ideal base for two couples or a small family plus up to two canine companions, all keen to explore the great wilderness of the Cairngorms National Park and revel in the remote location of this rustic property.
You’ll enter this former shepherd’s cottage via the door in the middle. First port of call will be the generous open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with the walls stripped back to the exposed stone and a cosy wood burner to add character. The lounge is large, with plentiful comfortable seating, while the dining table easily seats five and the well-equipped kitchen means self-catering won’t pose any problem during your break. The sleeping accommodation is ideal for a family or even friends, with one double bedroom and one twin bedroom. Outside, dogs and kids will love the generous enclosed garden. Sit at the furniture here and soak up the views or dine alfresco. There’s also private parking.
The fabulous setting of this cottage affords breathtaking views you can while away the hours enjoying. Equally, here in the foothills of the Cairngorms there are amazing walks (and cycles) almost literally from the front door, one thing human and dog visitors alike will endorse! Although the location of this stone cottage feels very secluded, Grantown-on-Spey is actually only 1.5 miles away, offering a vibrant collection of shops, eateries and pubs – plus an 18-hole golf course. Aviemore (15 miles) has more high-energy offerings like mountain biking and hiking.
