Set in Grantown on Spey and only less than 1 km from Grantown Museum, Brooklynn Guest House offers accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. It is situated 8.5 km from Abernethy Golf Club and provides room service. Beautiful house that was very clean and had all the modern amenities, but kept the charm of an old home. Shona was a wonderful host and she shared stories of the town and ideas for stops along our travels. Breakfast was delicious. Very close to the high street and the river Spey.

It is located 8.8 km from Newtonmore Golf Club and provides luggage storage space. The guest house also offers free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Our staying at Crubenbeg Country House has been AMAZING! The location is lovely: completely lost in nature yet so close to the main road. The room is spacious and clean, with a stunning view of the outside. The en-suite bathroom is roomy and spotless, with soaps and organic lotions, all made in scotland. The guest lounge is cozy and warm and we had a lovely evening chatting with the host and another guest. Breakfast was hand cooked by Annie and provided traditional and veggie options for a great start of the day. Annie was also kind enough to provide us an itinerary to follow for the next day, which we ended up following closely and had an amazing day out. We would definetely recoment staying here and we're looking forward to come back in the future.

Located 13 km from Boat of Garten Golf Club, Ardlogie Guest House offers accommodation in Aviemore with access to a hot tub. Providing free private parking, the 3-star guest house is 49 km from University of the Highlands and Islands, Inverness. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. Very close to the train station and walking distance to Aviemore. Did not get the chance to use the hot tub, but the sauna was a nice bonus especially in December. The room was very comfortable and the hosts are wonderful! The breakfast is better than anything you would get at a hotel. I would stay here again next time I am in Aviemore.

The guest house offers some units with lake views, and all units are fitted with a coffee machine. At the guest house, all units are allergy-free. Everything was as advertised.

Good restaurant recommendations and super helpful with making the reservations for us too. Thank you Thomas!
