The location for starting our tour of the Highlands was great. The host was very friendly and accommodating and had no problems with us checking in later than expected.
This family-run hotel is located at the heart of the Scottish Highlands. Breathtaking scenery and the Monadhliath and Cairngorm mountain ranges are nearby.

We were very happy with our stay at Clune House, Bryan and Laura were amazing hosts. The rooms very clean and the beds were very comfy. They offered fresh goats milk for the room, which was really delicious. Also the complimentary fudges they offered were some of the best ones we had in Scotland. The breakfast was also great, Laura is a really great cook. Plus having some filter coffee was a plus for us. The location is great if you are driving to Highlands from Edinburgh or if you want to explore the Cairngorms Park.
Located in the beautiful Inverness-Shire countryside, this bed and breakfast offers an optional room service breakfast as well as vegetarian and healthy options.

Newtonmore is a small village with little to offer in the way of shops, etc. The speed limit in towne center is much too fast to afford safe pedestrian crossing of Main Street and the thru traffic is heavy for such a small town.The crown jewel of Newtonmore by far is the Balavil Hotel; the accommodations are warm and comfortable, the staff is top notch and the food is superb.

Well appointed hotel complex.
Well appointed hotel complex. Our room was in the Annexe and very well furnished for short stay visitors. Very clean and fresh. Garden and surrounding areas well maintained and seating areas provided should the weather be favourable.
We opted to eat in the hotel for Dinner and were not disappointed. Service was first class and food standards were excellent.
Areas arund Newtonmore very accessible from the A9 and east through Kincraig to Aviemore was pictuesque. Lots to see and do, very vibrant area within 15 mile radius.
Avoid coming through Perth as road Duelling on A9 is causing significant delays. approach from the south easier through Crieff and join A9 at Dunkeld- free run from there.

Newtonmore is an excellent base for a stay in the highlands.
Newtonmore is an excellent base for a stay in the highlands. Without the business of Aviemore easy access to the Highland Wildlife Park and Highland Folk Museum and if you feel the need for something to do that all ages can take part in there's the Wildcat Walking Tour. A selection of eating places but if fast food is your thing maybe not for you.

Lovely village to stay in for touring this area of Scotland.
Lovely village to stay in for touring this area of Scotland. Golf course and beautiful river side walks. Easy access to A9 for travelling further afield. The Glen Pub at the edge of the village is a must - very friendly welcome and service and stunning food. Co-op in the village for those needing groceries etc. on a self-catering holiday. If you stay in this area I recommend a visit to a fantastic coffee shop in Kincraig called The Post Office Cafe Gallery.

Village is very central and gives easy access to Cairngorms without the busy feel of Aviemore. Easy to reach Fort William and access the west coast and also to reach Inverness and further north beyond. Wonderful walking locally in Glen Banchor and along the river Spey, Glen Feshie and Loch Insh. Golf at Newtonmore and three miles away at Kingussie. Very interesting Highland Folklore museum which deserves a whole day and is great for children. More amenities in Aviemore but worth staying in Newtonmore for the peace and quiet.
Would recommend the Glen Hotel for dinner and Antlers cafe for snacks.

We felt very comfortable. The cottage was very lovingly furnished, our dog was allowed to come along. The property has a fence, so our dog could run around the house freely. Rod and Dianne were always available for us, we contacted them when we had questions about the area, excursions or sights. We got great tips for trips. Newtonmore is centrally located. Excursions are easily possible from there. If we go to Scotland again we would rent a cottage from Rod and Dianne again.
Breakfast buffet was generally good, lots of tables so we were seated quickly. Service was good - on the second night of our stay we weren't able to book a table for dinner, but the manager was very happy to serve us some chips to keep the kids going. There was plenty of parking around the hotel, and a handy supermarket next door! Nice cosy bar to enjoy a drink after a day's sightseeing. Rooms had very good showers.
John and Irene are wonderful, friendly hosts. I was walking across Scotland on the TGO Challenge and they looked after me wonderfully. I am very grateful and would recommend them to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in the area. The hotel is quiet, well kept and well appointed. Their attention to detail is second to none. Thank you very much indeed and I hope to visit again in the future.
Overall the room and the bathroom were good. The bed was confortable and the room spacious and pleasant.
The reception area was a nice cosy area. The breakfast room was also a pleasant space with a nice view. The hotel location and surroundings were great and quiet for those who wish to explore around the highland mountains.
The staff members were friendly and polite.
It was well managed and extremely clean and sanitised. Plenty of room to get about. Easy access with parking. All staff were very good and attentive to our need and explained the processes and procedures for moving about the hotel. Food excellent with real
Portions 😋 I would definitely return in the near future and would recommend this hotel to anyone.
Easy to find, beautifully furnished and decorated, with fittings of a high standard. Excellent shower and wi-fi. The hosts go to a great deal of trouble to give the guests a special experience, especially with breakfast and the complimentary tea & cake. Newtonmore is a pleasant village with a convenient Co-op store and good pub (the Glen Hotel).
The hotel was located right in the city with reachability to main points, cafes, restaurants. It is located in the Cairngorns National park which means you're close to a lot of attractions. It is clean and tidy while being also small and cozy. We loved our beds and we had a very good nice sleep.
Great location, dog friendly and served as a nice place to stay the night between hiking days. Great breakfast and the bar with pool table downstairs was a fun way to spend a couple of hours. Everyone - locals and staff a like were very friendly and welcoming.
The B&B is owned by two wonderful people, Lynda and Eric! their home is very inviting and homey. The breakfast was excellent. Our room was big and the bed super comfortable. The location right outside Newtonmore is great! We will most definitely be back!!
Everything was fantastic, the accommodation, the food, the location, and especially the hosts! I wished we had booked a stay for more than one night, as it was a perfect location to use as a base for hiking the Cairngorms.
Very comfortable en suite room in a nice house in Newtonmore. Everything seemed freshly refurbished and the house, room and services were outstanding. Nice home-made breakfast included in the price. You feel very welcome.
Excellent hotel, comfortable, spotless, food was wonderful. Location great, easy going to and fro to various venues. Kids had a ball going to landmark, Aviemore etc need to come back and see other things!
Beautiful location. Lovely conservatory with comfy couches. Wonderful hosts. Delicious homemade breakfast. Great setting for a getaway. Found a marker nearby saying it was the Centre of Scotland!
Moira was the most amazing host. Breakfast was superb and best coffee so far in Scotland. The bath was the best for soaking after a long hike up Ben MacDui.
