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 have stayed at many B&Bs and we both agreed that the Clune house was the most impressive. The owners are lovely and have put an amazing amount of thought into their B&B. The room was very comfortable and had everything we could have ever asked for. The attention to detail is second to none. Fresh milk for your coffee, water, and drinks in the refrigerator. The food was excellent. We will definitely stay at the Clune House again if we are ever back in Newtonmore.
What a refreshing experience! The host could not have been more helpful. Recommendations for local restaurants and pizza takeouts, and even set us up with his personal laptop so that we could watch a rugby game (the bar TVs were set to Football and we werent going to try compete with the football). Good value drinks at the bar. Room was comfortable (family room) and well appointed. Definitely an option when up in the Aviemore/ Newtonmore area.
Friendly helpfull staff, very comfortable room with on suite shower room, very clean, swimming pool was very clean and good water quality, the food served was very high quality and cooked perfectly, the location is excellent Inverness 50mins, Ruthven barracks 10mins, Kingussie, Kincraig, aviemore, Insh, all beautiful places, Newtonmore is a friendly place with lots to see and do, a coop supermarket next to the hotel perfect for snacks etc
The views were absolutely amazing. The location is fabulous - close to so much and yet feels like it's away from everything. The most comfortable night we had in our entire trip. Owner was friendly and helpful. Kids loved the animals too and didn't want to leave. At the end of our week long trip which included the adventure park nearby, beaches and river swimming the kids have declared the Shepherd's Hut to be the highlight.
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.
Fantastic location....beautiful area with lots of walks, hills, beaches, waterfalls, and outdoor activities nearby. 10 minutes to Newtonmore, 25 to Aviemore for easy access to shops, pubs, restaurants etc. Lovely cottage, has everything you need - 2 minutes from the A9 but very quiet with a fenced rear patio looking out onto a grass area and pond. Very dog friendly.
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.
The bed was huge, so much so that I think my husband actually forgot that he'd taken me with him 😅 . The waiting on staff worked very hard, they were extremely helpful even when some of the guests were not. The food was very good and plentiful. We will be returning to this hotel.
Great House,ideally situated for visiting Aviemore, Cairngorms, Highland Wildlife Park, or the various nearby lochs for a SUP,paddle or swim. 1 minutes walk from the shop or the closest of a few hotels and restaurants.
The house also has a lovely Japanese theme
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!!
NIce traditional building. Very nice personel. Perfect bar, nice restaurant. Good dinner. Fantastic breakfasts. Our room was spacious with very big and comfortable bed. Parking near the hotel.
The village looked very nice too.
Self catering, adequate accommodation for our family. Dougie was very helpful with all our needs and nothing was a problem to him. Great location for all activities nearby and surrounding areas within an hour's travel.
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!
I liked the fact that it was dog friendly at no extra cost. I also loved the Breakfast, absolutely delicious! It was a very comfy bed and great idea having a bath robe for use of external bathroom.
The location is very good to walk into Newtonmore. The whole property was spotless. The staff were very friendly & the breakfast was superb. We have recommended this property to friends & family.
