Great base for exploring the Cairngorms

The property was ideal for our family of 4. It was clean and secure and had all the equipment/furniture we needed. It was also in a great location within walking distance to the centre of Aviemore.

Family Active Holiday

House is located in a quiet residential area at the top of the cul de sac. It is located ideally for walking into Aviemore town which we all enjoyed and as a good base for lots of different outdoor activities

Enjoyed our stay here. Some items may need attending to. Heat/smoke alarms needs upgrading. Sofa cushions too. Bin collection arrangements not clear. Otherwise a good holiday house. .

Clean but had utility problems

The house is on the outskirts of Aviemore - very quiet, very clean and comfy beds. Very fast broadband and lots of hot water However Heating was inadequate and we had some miserably cold evenings. One night was so cold I struggled to sleep. The cooker was very slow and never got that hot - 45minutes to cook a handful of small potatoes. We could not get the TV to work. I rang the owner who was very responsive and said he would ask a neighbour to drop in to sort it or would ring back. No one came and the owner did not ring back. The flush in the cloakroom was a bit dodgy so to avoid problems we stuck to just using the main bathroom.

Aviemore

Aviemore is een plaats waar van waaruit je snel van de prachtige natuur kan genieten. Helaas is Aviemore zelf een weinig inspirerende plek. Het heeft geen ziel. Dat gold ook voor het huisje. Een goede plek om te verblijven maar weinig aansprekend.

Disappointing

Dirty floor, cuttlery, pans and plates. Took us 4 hours to clean everything. No compensation was offered for this. Spectacular view on Cairn Gorms offered were not there. Overall very disappointing.

Good sized house for two seniors, two adults and two young children, aged 2 and 5. Beds comfortable, living room sofas less so. Excellent position in Aviemore for walks, town centre and the many local attractions.

Great Cottage in good neighbouhood and location

The cottage is very comfortable and good located in Aviemore. In 3 minutes you are in the center of Aviemore and in 15 at the basestation of Cairngorm Mountain. Simmie and Chris are very friendly and helpful. Special wishes regarding equipment and arrival time could be fulfilled. Thank you again.

Perfect Location

This is a great wee cottage in one of the best locations in Aviemore. As well as being 10 mins walk from the town centre along a beautiful safe path, you can leave the garden by the back gate, and you're 2 mins walk from MacDonald Spey Valley Resort with pool, bar restaurant etc. The bungalow is well appointed with 2 double rooms, and a triple kids room, one bathroom, a large living dining room, and separate kitchen. Outside there's a large garden front and back, with good quality seating area. Tumble dryer and chest freezer in the garage, and off street parking for 3 cars. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. If i was to criticise anything, thee carpet in living area looked a wee bit tired, and decor slightly dated, but really that's splitting hairs. Good sized TV with sky+, Free wifi with very fast connection, Plenty of hot water and a great shower all ensured we had a great time when it rained. Lastly Chris, the owner, bent over backwards to help us. We emailed him with a few enquiries, and he got back to us really promptly and found solutions. We will not hesitate to return, and would heartily recommend this bungalow.

Scott's House Aviemore

We stayed here in August 2010 and were pleased to find the house in a good location and in good condition. It is probably the best self catered accomodation we've ever stayed in. The house is well equipped and the bedrooms are quite spacious. Aviemore is a good base to work from because there is no shortage of things to do in the surrounding 50 miles or so. So long as you are prepared for the weather you should have a great time.
