9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (6)
"The cabin was amazingly beautiful. The decor was very very nice. Everything was very clean and the views were beautiful. First thing I did was take pictures of the cabin to send home. They know How much I wanted to stay in one. I did walk the seven bridge walk I’d sat halfway, also a wonderful scenic walk where I was able to get some fabulous pictures. When I took the walk outside the cabin I was amazed to see rabbits running everywhere. I was like a cartoon, most enjoyable. I did meet up with...

Cairngorms Flower Lodge
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (63)
"The caravan is a good standard it’s clean well equipped and even has a dishwasher and bath which makes it ideal for families. The caravan is showing some signs of its age the owners should replace the rusty bathroom radiators especially as one leaks in the bathroom. The sofa seating is tired but a freshen up etc would help. The park itself has no play park, no ball games allowed the pub onsite wasn’t all that friendly either so really there’s nothing to do for little people but as a base for a...

4 bedroom house with mountain views and large garden - ideal for families
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (66)
"This wonderful cozy cottage was the perfect location for our highland adventures. Easy to find, but out of the way! The home is nicely laid out. As Americans, use appliances,outlets, etc. differently . it would have been helpful to have critical switches labeled. For example we inadvertently turned off the kitchen refrigerator by turning its switch off. This switch was located along the wall, above the counter in the same places the light switched were located."

"Nice caravan in the quiet town of Boat of Garten. We stayed here four days as our base for day trips to the Cairngorms, Nairn and Inverness. The caravan was clean and nicely appointed. Just be aware the Wi-Fi is non-existent—never got it to work—and the washer and dryer is in a separate building and cost a total of 9.5 pounds per load. Otherwise all good!"

Tayview Lodges
3.5 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (11)
"Having read excellent reviews of Tayview Lodges, my wife and I arrived with great expectation and we were most certainly not disappointed. Our lodge, Little Lodge 2, was immaculate and in pristine condition. The spotlessly clean windows afforded uninterrupted views of the serene surroundings, the lodges being extremely well spaced out. The owners, Ross and Georgina were away for the duration of our stay but we were warmly welcomed by Georgina’s father, Duncan. The nearby towns of Pitlochry and...
