Church Hill House

Church Hill House is a recently fully renovated and spacious Georgian property in the village of Kingussie, set within the stunning Cairngorms National Park. Spend your days in the hills, walking along the Spey, visiting local attractions or relaxing in the garden or sitting room. In the evenings, revitalise in the plush bathrooms; dine in style in the bespoke kitchen; relax with a whisky in the snug, or watch the stars from the garden sitooterie; then sleep soundly in a peaceful bedroom. The space Church Hill House is a beautiful 1820s house in a quiet Highland village street, meticulously restored (2024) and furnished with a mix of old and new to evoke the dream Highland Lodge. You don't however need 16 friends to fill it, or a Landrover to get here. Kingussie is on the main north-south train line, and the house is a seven minute walk from Kingussie station. Direct services run from London (including the Caledonian Sleeper), Edinburgh, Glasgow and connections to the full network. From here you can walk or cycle in the stunning country of the Cairngorms National Park, or walk to the shops and excellent village pub.

A fully enclosed (and slightly wild) garden at the back, has a 'sitooterie' (a Scots word to describe a place in a garden in which you can 'sit oot' - usually roofed!) to shield you from both sun and rain.
