5/5 Excellent
Highland heaven and all the Coos you could ask for
"Property felt like home the moment we arrived. Pics do not do it justice. Super clean and roomy. The backfield is filled with Highland cows that make their way up at least twice a day. Kitchen is huge and also has great view. Location cannot be beat. 4 miles to Loch Morlich with rest of town even closer. Family and I cannot wait to return."

Lurchers Cabin Aviemore
5/5 Excellent
"A lovely little Cabin, in a small intimate group of Cabins located in a quiet area of Aviemore. Within walking distance of Aviemore Town Centre and plenty of Pubs, Restaurants just a few minutes walk away. The Cabin its self had everything we needed to just unpack and settle in like a home from home. Very comfortable bed and scalding hot shower, much appreciated after a day in the mountains. We wanted for nothing. Communication from the owner was clear concise and they answered any questions I had promptly and courteously. We would happily chose to stay here again and would recommend to all our friends."
