About this property

Comfortable Highland Speyside cottage with stunning views

Aird Highland House is a family home sitting in stunning scenery on the edge of the Cairngorm National Park in the Scottish Highlands. Originally a crofters cottage, it has been sympathetically added to over the years. With breathtaking views, the cottage offers comfortable self-catering holiday accommodation for up to 10 people. It is the perfect place to explore the Highlands and the Moray Whisky Trail, golf, cycling, hill walking as well as the castles of Aberdeenshire and Banff. Just 9 miles from Grantown on Spey, the cottage is within easy reach of Aviemore, the Landmark Centre, Boat of Garten, the Glenlivet Estate, Ballindalloch Castle, the Moray Firth and Inverness. Cycling, kayaking, nature watching, walking, the steam railway – there is a huge amount to do in this picturesque area of Scotland. Aird is also very well placed for golf, with easy accessibility to many championship golf courses as well as many hidden gems including Castle Stuart, Spey Valley, Nairn, Grantown-on-Spey, Boat of Garden to name a few.

Aird comprises five spacious and comfortable bedrooms (3 doubles and 2 twin rooms), 2 shower rooms and one bathroom. There is a large entrance hall with plenty of room for coats and boots, a generous kitchen with large kitchen table (seats 10) which leads onto (up some stairs) a huge sitting room with panoramic window to enjoy the stunning views. A large L-shaped sofa, second sofa and armchairs provide lots of room for everyone. The kitchen is really well equipped and should have everything you need. Basics such as salt and pepper, cooking oil, teabags, dishwasher tablets and cloths are all provided.

Yes, the sun does shine in Scotland!
We had a glorious week staying in this lovely house. Inevitably, to get to the bigger hills, lochs, local towns and historic sites involves driving. But there are great walks which are much more local, taking in forest and hillside, with alot of variation. The house is super comfortable for a group of family and friends. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this house unreservedly.

Spacious and relaxing
The house was our base for the Moray 6 Days of Orienteering. We were running every day so did not have the opportunity to visit the local area but the scenery was very pleasant and the house was nice and spacious.

Family holiday
We had a lovely stay at this well equipped and spacious property. It feels remote but is a relatively short drive to attractions such as Landmark, Aviemore and excellent access to the Speyside Whiskey trail. The children enjoyed the bikes, wildlife and board games kept us all entertained. Kitchen had everytbing we needed and had no problem getting shopping delivered. Would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere peaceful and away from some of the busier towns.

We had a great week fishing at tulchan n. So the house is very well located fur us
Only negative was there was no bins for sorting recycling. Except at the end of the road a mile away! Every area of Scotland seems to have a different idea. Hopefully we got it right.🙏🤞
