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
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.

Precies genoeg communicatie - opties om in contact te blijven mogen iets beter. Ook de uitleg in de mail over de toegang tot de cottage waren beetje te beperkt. Vooral over wat er inclusief is en wat niet | |

This is the 4th time I've booked with Unique Cottages now. I find many of the properties on Unique Cottages are really good value for money compared to other sites. Browsing the site and booking is easy, and customer service was very friendly when they spoke to me on the phone to follow up with something after our stay. | |
