The Boat Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Best breakfast included in the reservation"

ABI St.David 6 Berth Caravan

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect spot for my “working holiday” I wanted to get out and about during the day and have reliable space for working in the evenings remotely. I was warm, comfortable and had plenty of amenities. Would rebook in a heartbeat. Thanks!"

Mallard - sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"Mallard was the perfect holiday home. It was comfortable, clean and had everything practical you could want. It was a little chilly later in the week and the heating system was excellent. Seeing red squirrels and a crested tit in the back garden was an absolute delight. Another plus was the location, we did three walks from the house, just perfect. The village had everything and the pub does good pub grub. We hope to revisit in the future . Thank you Mallard for a great week"

Pine Ridge Lodge - a lodge that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

8/10 Good

"Another great stay at Pine Ridge Lodge! Three generations now and well equipped for all, comfortable and spacious. Fab location, walks from the door, garden lovely for socialising and relaxing. Loved the different areas to sit in and catch the sun! Hot tub a bonus. Only downside was there was a lot of dog hairs on some of the throws and carpets in the bedrooms. Not ideal with a crawling baby. Couldn’t find a vac otherwise we would have tried to remove some. Nothing that would put us off booking again though."

Chalet with large decking, great views, WIFI included. ATTENTION SKIERS - IDEAL

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely cabin on a holiday park. Really great location and town. Lovely walks from the cabin and a great spot for getting around."

Birchfield Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Superb!!! Second time coming here. Will come again ThanksSimon"

Mallachie - sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"We returned for a second time, after a lovely stay last year, for a family holiday. The property is really clean, comfortable and very well equipped. We had regular visits from red squirrels and a range of wild life. The secure garden was enjoyed by our grand daughter and the dogs. There are great walks right from the door, access to local cafes and a shop plus the opportunity to watch the steam train 6 times a day. We hope to return next year."

Croft Kincardine - a lodge that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful log cabin with great living space and log burner, and location down a track in it's own woodland over looking the River Spey. Loved it, will look forward to staying again."
