This little cottage was perfect for our party of 2 couples. Louise greeted us on arrival and was genuinely warm and welcoming. The unit has been recently renovated. The kitchen is well-stocked, including a dishwasher and washing machine. Beds are comfortable and there is a nice seating area with a little fireplace. Spotlessly clean. Nice, convenient location for visiting Speyside.

Our host was very welcoming and the accommodations were spacious. The bedding and towels were luxurious and the kitchen was well appointed. The wood burning stove was a delight that we took advantage of each night. The view of the nearby castle was a delightful surprise. It would be helpful to provide additional signage from the main road directing us. We would happily recommend this cottage to anyone who visits Speyside.
