We have used this holiday home a number of times in the past 12 years and it has had a fairly recent positive renovation e.g new kitchen, bathrooms and furniture. It has lost none of its charm; it is a lovely old stone villa set in private and tranquil grounds. Ideal for families seeking peace and quiet from the bustle. Kingussie is a delightful spRead moreot to stay in the Cairngorms and this house is a great place to unwind. Highly recommended. Hide

A wonderful holiday home with distinctive historic charm. Thanks to modern bathrooms and a new kitchen, you don't have to do without any comfort. Within walking distance are several hiking trails and also the main street with shops. We would love to come back...

Excellent week in a fine setting. Great walks from the door and within easy driving distance. COVID has reduced local eating options a little.
