Lovely little hotel in quiet Grandtully. We enjoyed the food and stay at this small inn, and walked one afternoon along the river bank to the next town as well as visited (the outside at least - as it was closed until 2 PM) the nearby Menzies Castle.

This little gem in the middle of Scotland ❤️ the rooms are just as you would imagine, cosy, clean and with the small town feel. There is a restaurant and a pub with very attentive staff. The food is good at both as is also the breakfast they serve. Definitely recommened while you are in town also the visit to Blair Atholl castle and gardens.

An ideal hub for the North West end of The Cairngorms. The Highland Wildlife Park, Mountain Resorts and Mountain Railway are only 20 Minutes drive away and the town itself has souvenir shops, grocery stores and plenty of outdoor living shops and pubs.

Lovely area, architecture is amazing. Loved Craigs bar that does a selection of pies :) Nice river/wooded walks, nature reserves and cycle routes nearby. Highland Wildlife park is a short drive away. You can walk from one end of the town to the other in quite a short time.

Very friendly locals and the Wildcat Trail was a great way to start our visit. Some restrictions east of the town because of wild fires but still the whole of the beautiful Monadhlaith Mountains to explore. Plenty of places to eat but standout was the Laggan Hotel where the food was great and the staff brilliant.

nice rural location but with enough amenities in both Kingussie or Aviemore to satisfy your needs. the accommodation was adjacent to the wonderful Highlands Wildlife Park which was a great way to spend a few hours. the Bistro cafe in Kingussie was superb, small cosy atmosphere, good service, great food well cooked and presented. the Chinese take away in Kingussie was nice.

This is a superb glamping site! It is unique, in a lovely setting close to Pitlochry, Balmoral Castle and the ski slopes! It had everything you needed for a really comfortable stay. The bothy was well equipped and the hot tubs were a bonus! Nathan was a brilliant host and on hand when needed. Highly recommend!

There are a few routes to walk to Kincraig, using the cycle/walking route. The Old Post Office Cafe Gallery sells absolutely wonderful food - I can highly recommend the soup with a cheese scone. Just make sure you look at the opening times as it's not open every day. The only downside is that there's nowhere to buy general provisions in Kincraig, for this you need to head into Kingussie, which is an 8 minute drive away as the cycle/walking path unfortunately doesn't go that far

BRAEMAR was busy when we arrived mid afternoon, Having driven from Dumfries. The object of Dumfries was Dumfries house. Turnbury golf club Culzean Castle & Dunure. In BRAEMAR The Fife hotel could not fit us in the accommodation when I previously tried to book , neither could they fit us into the restaurant for Evening meal. We could only find one restaurant to accommodate us for dinner so we ate there both nights. It was fairly good. We went to Crathie Kirk Balmoral. Balleter. Braemar castle. Mission Accomplished ! All very enjoyable .Scotland gave us excellent hospitality!

The hotel provided what we needed. We had a dog, who stayed in our vehicle overnight, but it was easy to park near an exit to manage her needs. She could have stayed in the hotel, but the car was easier as she was familiar with it. Breakfast was comprehensive and the staff were all friendly and helpful.
