Experience the wild beauty of the Highlands from the comfort of this colourful holiday home in the spectacular Cairngorms National Park, just 5 miles from Aviemore. Those who adore nature and the outdoor lifestyle will relish the fresh mountain air and stillness of the environment, while accessible features mean wheelchair users can enjoy a memorable break here too.
The property is arranged over two floors, giving everyone in your group room to spread out and find their own space. On the ground floor is an open-plan dining and sitting area, filled with natural light thanks to its dual-aspect windows and skylights. In mild weather, it’s nice to open the patio doors and simply listen to the sounds of nature. The garden is a haven for wildlife, making it a lovely spot to enjoy breakfast watching the birds. One of the bedrooms on this level comes with an accessible wet room designed for guests with reduced mobility. Upstairs is a third bedroom and a gallery-style sitting room where you can gather beside the wood burner on cooler evenings or enjoy casual meals in a second dining area.
The cottage is just over a mile from the picturesque village of Boat of Garten, which has several places to eat and drink, and only 4 miles from Loch Garten Nature Reserve, where red squirrels, ospreys and bank voles can often be spotted. If some people in your group are keen to venture off on two wheels, bike hire is available to enjoy cycle routes along the Speyside Way. The Highland Wildlife Park (13.5 miles) is great for a family day out, or you can head to Inverness (25 miles) for a spectacular scenic drive on the famous North Coast 500 route.
