It comes with a hot tub, sauna, excellent decking, fire pit and lots of outdoor lounging spots. Located on the Route 7 cycle path, you have easy access to all the attractions and activities that the area has to offer.

Two luxurious self-catering cottages exclusively for couples, located in the tiny hamlet of Enochdhu in the heart of Highland Perthshire. The cottages are only 30 minutes from Glenshee and tucked away in the hills between Pitlochry and Blairgowrie: the ideal getaway for those seeking a place to repose and unwind or for an active stay.

Where you may unwind in the hot tub while admiring the magnificent starry sky and where you can have dinner with pine martens and breakfast with red squirrels and fallow deer.

Spend the day lounging on the hammock with a drink of bubbly and the wildlife as your company. Savour a luxurious in-cottage massage before unwinding in the sauna or rain shower to cap off the day and tucking into an opulent emperor-sized bed with Egyptian cotton sheets.

A tranquil riverbank setting with a hot tub, sauna, and a log cabin with a North American feel, close to Aviemore.
Ski chalet decor is a major influence on the tastefully illuminated wood-everywhere interior of Snowy River Lodge. Large groups can enjoy mealtimes and aperitif hour in the well-equipped kitchen (complete with two wine fridges) and the spacious living and dining area with an open concept design. At the far end is a lounge area with sofas arranged around a 52-inch TV and a woodburning stove. A patio door leads to a south-facing bench for visits in fair weather, and another door opens to the deck, which has a solid wood dining table and a number of casual seating options.
Although Snowy River Lodge’s grounds are unique, you won’t regret exploring outside the garden’s bounds. Carrbridge is encircled by meandering walkways, red squirrels, and deer-filled woodlands. Holidaymakers with four legs will really enjoy their stay here. Along with additional dining and drinking options, the village features a fantastic local pub, a Spar store, a play area, bike jumps, and the much-loved Landmark Adventure Park.

First, there’s the entry, where you drive beneath a former railway bridge to reach a private haven decked out in fairy lights. If you stay outside, you will soon see the hot tub and barrel sauna close to the outdoor seating area. The fisherman’s hut, with its own wood-burning fire and riverside porch, can then be found by following the ancient mill course down through the garden to the River Spey. Ideal for an evening drink spot, a quiet reading nook, or a teen hangout.
There’s much to keep you busy here for a weekend, including the sauna, hot tub, river, garden, collection of board games, and the desire to just take in the space that Old Mill on the Spey seems to generate in everyone who stays. You’re in an excellent place to start your experiences if you decide to explore or if you have the good fortune to be staying longer. In less than ten minutes, Boat of Garten, a charming community with a fantastic shop, cafe, gallery, tavern, network of walkways, and bike pump track and it’s less than a 10-minute drive to everything Aviemore has to offer.

If, during your time at Highland Lodge Estate, you never leave the spa and wellness suite, we’ll forgive you. Inside is a sizable sauna with a glass front and a rain shower that looks out over a chill-out area with slate floors, underfloor heating, and a wood-burning stove. A deep spa bath with water jets and head pillows for complete shut-off is located in the corner. The large sliding door then leads to the deck area outside. Here, the emphasis is still on unwinding. Enjoy a meal at the dining table, unwind in the hot tub, socialize around the fire pit, or get a drink from the outside bar. There wouldn’t be a reason to leave the property if you weren’t in such a desirable area, near Aviemore and all that the Cairngorms National Park has to offer.

The 18th-century croft home and nearby steading at Crofts of Cairngorm make this a unique holiday spot. They are the perfect combination for a large gathering. The traditional stone cottage has three bedrooms as well as the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The stone steading can sleep nine guests at a time thanks to its two additional bedrooms and bathrooms.
All things considered, Crofts of Cairngorm provides a tranquil haven from the hectic lives we lead, and its position puts you in the center of everything that the Cairngorms National Park has to offer. Nethy Bridge features a great playpark beside a wide playing field, a hotel with a public bar, an excellent cafe and butcher/deli, and numerous possibilities for woodland walks. You can reach Aviemore, Grantown-on-Spey, and the charming nearby villages of Carrbridge and Boat of Garten with a 15-minute drive.
