Guests appreciate the comfortable beds, cosy log fires, and the property's proximity to local amenities.

About this property
A tastefully-presented detached stone cottage in the heart of Aviemore in the stunning Cairngorms National Park. Superbly appointed throughout, this spacious and very well-equipped Aviemore cottage oozes comfort and style, and is ideal for a family or group of friends who want to enjoy the wonderful array of activities available in and around Aviemore. This Aviemore cottage has bright and spacious accommodation set over two floors, with four well-proportioned bedrooms (one with an en-suite shower) on the first floor, along with the family bathroom. The ground floor of this Aviemore cottage offers generous accommodation for relaxation, with a lovely sun room to the front, a sumptuous sitting room with multi-fuel stove and a large kitchen with dining area, sofa and another multi-fuel stove. To complete the ground floor accommodation is a small sun room at the rear overlooking the quiet private garden. This Aviemore cottage is ideally situated close to the vibrant town centre, which as you would expect has much to offer in terms of shopping, dining and lively pubs. The Cairngorms National Park is not only famous for its outdoor pursuits, but also for its stunning scenery and wonderful wildlife. Just a few miles south of Aviemore is Kincraig and the Loch Insh Watersports Centre, where young and old can participate in canoeing, sailing, windsurfing, fishing, archery and so much more. Whilst still in Kincraig, a visit to the Highland Wildlife Park, open all year round, is a must. So much to see and do here, but at the end of a busy day, returning to your Aviemore cottage will be a joy!
Situated in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park, Aviemore is an ideal holiday location. The area offers good fishing, walking in the surrounding hills and woodland, and golf with its fine courses. There is also sailing, riding and bird watching, with rare species to be found including Ospreys and Capercaillie. The landscape is dotted with historic castles, tempting distilleries, and is known to millions as the setting for the TV series 'Monarch of the Glen'. You can fish on the River Spey all summer and winter or ski on the Cairngorms and at the Lecht ski centres.
