Cairngorms & Strathspey
Aviemore is perhaps the best known tourist centre of the area and is a small town in a lovely setting beneath the Cairngorm itself. Developed from a winter ski resort it now has attractions galore, both organised and scenic, to tempt the year round visitor. Nearby Boat of Garten is famous for its ospreys and just a few miles further is Grantown-on-Spey, beyond which the Strathspey valley offers legendary fishing, walking and, of course, the distilleries for which the area is so famous.

Strathspey is a country of heather hills and rushing mountain streams that strikes an instant chord with lovers of whisky the world over.
The villages and small towns along the A9 which follows the Spey valley, offer a range of accommodation and activities for visitors. Nearby Loch Morlich is famous for sailing and its outdoor centre, while the surrounding mountains offer superb walking and climbing.
This area is very popular with wildlife lovers as the woodland habitat in the valleys and heather-clad foothills are ideal for rare species such as the pine marten, wildcat, red squirrel, osprey, capercaillie, red and black grouse and crossbill. The higher slopes offer an opportunity to view golden eagles, peregrine falcons, ptarmigan, snow bunting, dotterel and reindeer.

26-Mar-2024 | The Black Barn DB7 (overall) | Got back to us quick when asked questions about stay | ||
26-Mar-2024 | East Denwick Mill GA1 (overall) | We liked that the owner was available next door, but wasn't at all intrusive. He gave us information about the island when we asked for it. So just the right amount of support. | ||
26-Mar-2024 | River Cottage at Old Melrose CN6 (overall) | We have stayed twice River Cottage and love both the cottage and surrounding countryside. When you arrive, there is a lovely hamper with homemade bread and marmalade, plus freshly laid eggs. The cottage is very clean, well-appointed and organised. The kitchen is great to cook in. We would recommend bringing a shower cap for the excellent overhead shower. The owners, who live next door, are very pleasant, welcoming and discreet. We hardly noticed them apart from the odd times when our paths crossed. The grounds are lovely for walking and have access to the river Tweed. In the local towns, there are some excellent small shops that are worth exploring, especially for food and books! | ||
24-Mar-2024 | Am Bothan GM2 (overall) | Customer service team is very helpful and friendly. Overall service was excellent. | ||

23-Mar-2024 | Coldwells Cottage EK5 (overall) | Professional service from booking to completion of holiday. Timely reminders and kept informed via email. The only aspect of Unique Cottages service that I don't like is the £150 compulsory cleaning deposit, other cottage holiday booking agencies do not have this charge. | ||
