Cozy, little room with super modern furniture and a fresh new feel about it. Felt right at home. Very comfortable bed and luxurious bath supplies. Loved the freshly baked cookies as a welcome gift. Great location for exploring the surrounding highlands and to go off hiking. All in all a very nice stay. Will definitely recommend and return. We were sad to leave.

We had a perfect stay. The room was very nice: spacious and beautifully decorated. Big enough, very clean and the shower was really good. Everything worked perfectly. They do serve the best breakfast here! We have eaten the best porridge ever with really nice fruit. Very good for cyclists doing the LEJoG trial or any other trial. The coffee was also perfect and the owners are really helpful and they communicate so well.

Wow, the place was beyond our expectations! Best value for money and beds were so comfortable. Even towels were thick and nice. Only setback is the shower. Water temperature was inconsistent, had to adjust the heater temperature constantly. Kitchen was fully equipped but the kettle looks a bit dirty inside, so I dare not use it. Other than that everything was perfect and we had no regrets staying there. It's also very nearby to all the shops

We were booked for 2 nights but as soon as we arrived to our chalet we booked another 3 nights! Its like home away home! The chalet is so comfortable, cosy, warm. The whole resort is in a great location as Aviemore is just a wonderful little town. Scenery (for me as a foreigner from a flat country) absolutely gorgeous. Lots to do as a family and the areas roads and viewpoints are a must! Great place for a family holiday!

A beautiful small hotel in which you have filling like you've stepped back into a beautiful past. Some people might not like it, but it's fantastic when you hear the creaking of the floors, as if you've stepped back into the 19th century, classic Scottish breakfast...beautiful. We took dinner in hotels pub. We had dinner at the hotel pub which serves excellent local food. A truly wonderful experience.

I had imagined Aviemore to be an old town like Pitlochry and Dunkeld, but in fact all the buildings in the Main Street seem to be fairly new, apart from the railway station. It has lots of shops selling outdoor clothing, and is not very attractive architecturally.

We went to Ballater to be close to Balmoral Castle, where we went to an artisans market on the grounds. We were there in October, so opening of other parts of the castle were not available, due to royal residence use. I would return to this beautiful part of Scotland again if given the chance, to see more of the castle.

The countryside in autumn was spectacular. There are lots of local walks to suit different levels of fitness. The Spey is nearby so iconic itself and for the whisky distilleries along its banks. Interesting local shops. Fresh local produce. Nice folk. Close enough for trips to the Moray Coast and Cairngorms. Golf, fishing, garden nurseries all in easy reach.

Boat of Garten is a small village which has some good features and services, including a pub, a village store, pizza shop, art gallery and historic railway station. It is well located in relation to forest walks and other outdoor activities. For any significant shopping you needs to travel nearby Aviemore, 4.5 miles away.

Nestled amongst the mountains with paths and tracks leading all over what’s not to like? Sadly, the general facilities here have gone. No shop for example. One place did have a sign out for coffee, but there could be an opportunity here for someone. Worth climbing up the Cateran Trail heading south to get stunning views looking down on the village. Also visit the stone circle, old bridge and the church. Just soak up the atmosphere!
