First impressions were that the outside of the property could do with some tlc. When we entered there was a strong sour smell like a dirty mop or a wet dog. The living seemed comfy enough and we liked the suite. The television was an “experience” in itself. The kitchen was well equipped and plenty of clean cutlery and dishes. It had a nice small dining area. The bathroom radiators were very rusty and there was a lot of mould on the silicon sealant around the shower/bath. The showers themselves were very good and powerful. The beds were very comfortable and the bedrooms were clean. The site itself was excellent and the facilities includin* the onsite bar was great.

OK but problems

Property was fine but the heating wasn't working when we arrived and it's clear it had not been on for a long time. The water pressure was low on the boiler and I had to sort it myself as the local contact did not know how to. Also the television did not work. Fortunately we only stayed one night.

Aviemore trip

The lodge was much as expected albeit closer to neighbouring ones than anticipated. Almost all you would need for a short break was in the lodge but several missing items- primarily towels- were missing with the reason given being ‘covid related’. Given that we no longer have restrictions this surprised me. In fairness the owner did put in a hair dryer and advised towels would be available from next week. Why the delay? Finally, whilst wifi is not directly provided by the owners, we were informed a supply was available at the campsite for £2.50 per day. It did not work at all during our booking.

Not as advertised

No signal on TV contacted host who eventually got back to me. They said the wire would be in the back of DVD, it was so we swapped it over, this didn’t fix it. Someone came round and tried to fix it on the 2nd day but couldn’t so said they would come on our last day and try again but when we got back from being out all day it still wasn’t fixed saying no signal. Having a son with autism made it even more difficult as he would normally watch a film whilst relaxing, as there was no tv we had to go out morning till night. WiFi was poor which would’ve been fine but as we had no tv it was only source of entertainment. Family in a nearby chalet had perfect WiFi. Paid £495 for 3 nights with no tv or WiFi, this put a real dampener on our holiday. Place was not as clean as I would’ve expected or have experienced in other self catering. We got one towel each but they were badly smelling of damp especially when wet. I reached out to the host to advise them that I was unhappy and that the chalet was not as advertised due to having no TV and have raised a complaint through VRBO.

Die Unterkunft war gut eingerichtet und sauber. Die Lage unterhalb der recht befahrenen Straße war nicht so schön. Man sollte sich online einchecken, jedoch gab es kein free WiFi und wir hatten kein Datenvolumen mehr.

Good spot to stay and explore the Cairngorms

Very clean, and well kept static. Good size main bedroom with ensuite bathroom which was nice. The second bedroom is very small with tiny beds so if you have kids that are teens you may find it too cramped, an adult would certainly struggle to sleep on the beds. It was very clean and obviously cared for. Let down in a few areas which if addressed would making it top notch, main thing was the master bedroom mattress, it's obviously a cheap mattress and not very comfortable, the kitchen is equipped but missing basic items such as a frying spatula, sharp knives ect so some a bit of attention to correct that. Otherwise it's a good option for a stay in Aviemore.and we did enjoy our stay.

Lovely, super clean property in a tranquil location. Great facilities with everything we needed for our three night stay. Comfortable king sized bed in a decent sized room. Parking space next to the accommodation. Our main issue was was with the on line check in as the welcome pack with the form to do this was not attached with the information sent by the hosts. It took a twenty minute phone call to the helpline to rectify this and we were not actually able to complete the registration as obtaining an activation code meant that the page for registration was lost. A simple laminated booklet in the chalet would have been much easier. We were unable to access the wifi or work the TV even after several attempts at following the instructions. The only other negative was that the towels had a very musty smell and a couple of hand towels in addition to the small bath towels would have been appreciated. This was not a major issue as we were only staying for a few days. All in all we enjoyed our stay and have taken away some nice memories.

Information kit delayed and should be on site. VRBO site difficult to maneuver and we were without heat until the information arrived. The TV and fireplace didn't work. No tea towels or coffee . No shampoo, soaps. 2nd broom only suitable for children -tiny. Only place we had to pay for internet.

The accommodation had deficiencies.

The accommodation is located in a holiday park near to Aviemore. Unfortunately, ball games were not allowed here and it is therefore not recommended for children. The accommodation itself was very cosy, but unfortunately not really clean. There was serious rust damage to radiators and mould. Vents were dusty and the extractor bonnet was greasy.

Mixed feelings

Smell in main bathroom that persist. We wonder if there is a blockage on nearby area and should be reported to camp site. Sofa needs good cleaning and it is very uncomfortable. Tv signal disappear when rain. You pay for WiFi which is announced in package,but it does not work which is double injury . Single beds room is claustrophobic. Getting arrival package took 2 hrs of calls. Kitchen extractor filthy with fat and it is concerning if you cook and falls in food. Good location, feels homely but will not repeat .
