All bedding is included and 4 towels per cottage. For guests staying longer than a week these are changed as agreed, usually on a weekly basis. The main thing our guests comment on is the setting at the foothills of the Monadhliath mountains with views over the Cairngorms. We are located above the village so these can be enjoyed in peace and quiet. In the foreground are sheep and lambs, as we are in a crofting area, together with lapwings, curlews, oyster catchers and hares. But also our guests also find the cottages well equipped, warm and comfortable, which is reflected in our 2019 3* rating (not graded in 2020). The majority of our guests come to walk or bike, which can be done from the door. The Newtonmore wildcat trail is only 200m from the house. And there is an unlimited number of local walks and rides. Our second cottage, stable, has similar facilities to loft cottage but has 4 single beds and is wheelchair accessbible. The two cottages are adjacent so can be booked together for larger groups.
