Absolutely brilliant house!

Can’t say enough about how fab this house is. We were 3 generations and it worked brilliantly for everyone. Loads of space, everything you need and more in the kitchen, comfy beds, as everyone else has said the garden is brilliant and I want to take the sunroom home with me. We all spent hours sitting reading in there, looking out for wildlife. Highly recommend (although don’t want too many people to know about it!) and will definitely be back. Thanks Ian!

Perfect Christmas Getaway

First time travelling to Scotland and I think we chose the best possible home and location. The house was absolutely stunning both in size, location and ammenities. We felt right at home and the kids loved having their own rooms and the extra play equipment in the garage. The images of the garden dont do it justice and was lovely being so close to the river as well. Nethy Bridge is wonderful little village with a small Spar for essentials but otherwise perfectly located to see some of the Highlands. Inverness, Loch Ness, Aviemore and the Cairngorm Mountains all close by. We were lucky enough to have snow just after Christmas and the whole scenery was magical covered in snow. Thanks so much for opening your house to us.

We enjoyed sitting in the sun house watching birds on the bird feeder that we purchsed. To encourage the birds into the garden. Also had a badger come at the back of the house late at night. For some nuts and pear which was wonderful to see. We enjoyed two weeks at Nethy Bridge really liked exploring the landscape in the area. Host was good with communication. Negative feedback, better not to use any towels for customers which look old and marked. A fire place tool set would also be helpful. Views to the mountains only from the top landing windows, not from the sun house as described as the trees block the views to the mountains. Would stay again.

Nice house in a great location!

We stayed in Nethy Bridge with our three teen-kids, who enjoyed their private rooms in this very spacy house. Everything was clean, the kitchen is well equipped, and we loved the fireplace. Nice garden with a river directly behind, and we had a good time in the garage with table-tennis, dart and kicker-table! The location in great for exploring the Cairngorms, we would love to come back!

A very comfortable and spacious house which was ideal for our family. Well equipped and the addition of the games room was a bonus. The sun lounge and huge garden gave the feeling of being in a detached house in the countryside, but with the benefit of being in the village. The upstairs bedrooms are huge with plenty of space for quiet moments.

Perfect for a family holiday

The property is amazing, really spacious and the huge garden and games in the garage were a huge hit with the kids. Loads of walks from the door and Lochs nearby for water-sports it really is the ideal base for an active, outdoors family. The sunroom was perfect to read and recharge the batteries and the kitchen was really well equipped. Would absolutely recommend.

Highland adventures

This wonderful cozy cottage was the perfect location for our highland adventures. Easy to find, but out of the way! The home is nicely laid out. As Americans, use appliances,outlets, etc. differently . it would have been helpful to have critical switches labeled. For example we inadvertently turned off the kitchen refrigerator by turning its switch off. This switch was located along the wall, above the counter in the same places the light switched were located.

Tolle Gegend und geräumiges Haus

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und sind begeistert in der näheren Umgebung gewandert und haben Ausflüge gemacht. Beides war ideal für uns. Was den Aufenthalt ein bisschen geschmälert hat, waren die wenig komfortablen Matratzen in den Schlafzimmern unten und die durchgesessenen Sofas. Außerdem gab es keine Einkaufsmöglichkeit direkt im Ort.

About the host

Hosted by Ian Leach

Host profile image
The house is a family holiday home and we spend time here ourselves every summer and other times when we can enjoy all the Cairngorm National Park has to offer .Over the years many visitors from the UK , Europe and further afield have stayed and enjoyed exploring the Cairngorms .

Why they chose this property

We have holidayed in the area for many years . We love the peaceful surroundings , the village , and the easy access to walks and lots of outdoor sports and beautiful unspoilt countryside. Its a good base to visit the Cairngorm National Park and in and around Aviemore there is lots to do for adults and children . There is clay pigeon shooting , go karting , bicycle hire , quad biking , rafting , and just about every outdoor activity you can imagine , and in winter skiing on CairnGorm or the Lecht , snow permitting ! There are indoor play areas if the weather is not good , the steam train from Aviemore to Boat of Garten and Broomhill is worth a trip and the Landmark Centre in Carrbridge which has a water slide and other attractions is also great for children . At Loch Morlich there is a beautiful sandy beach and lots of watersports with canoes etc for hire. There are tennis courts and a golf course in the village and within a short drive lots of other golf courses , Loch Garten and the osprey centre . There are lots of beatiful walks too.

What makes this property unique

Its very peaceful and the fresh air and the views of stars on a clear night are wonderful especially when you live most of the year in a city. There are fantastic views of forests and mountains and the weather rolling by , from the sunroom. There is a large garden which is great for children , and there is a river at the bottom of the garden - over a stile , where you can light a bonfire and skim stones on a summer evening . From the house it takes a few minutes to walk , or bike into the Abernethy forest and there are miles of fantastic trails .
