Cottage holiday rentals in Grampian Mountains

Fantastic stay in a beautiful location- everything as described and an incredible view! Will definitely return

Our stay lived up to high expectations. Ainslie went over and above with decorations for my boyfriend’s birthday; welcome notes; homemade cake; fizz and ice in the fridge. She was warm and welcoming, and we felt completely relaxed. So grateful for such a lovely stay in a beautiful area. We will definitely be back! Thank you Ainslie 🥰🤩🥳

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars! Excellent home in a really peaceful beautiful location. It was easy to find and no issues entering the property. Stunning old house which clearly has a lot of history. The home was well presented and we found it comfortable. All the instructions were clear. The hot tub was excellent and the kids loved it. So peaceful at night. Only a 10 min drive into Alyth where there is a couple of shops, but many many lovely walks about ideal for dogs. The wifi was a bit hit and miss we struggled watching tv as it kept freezing with no signal. However given the rural location this is excepted and didn’t bother us too much. AGA cooker was great a real experience and I’m sure in the winter it’s beautiful and warm. Overall we would recommend the property, my only room for improvement would be looking into the WiFi and potentially adding a better dining table and chairs outside. It would have been lovely to dine outside on some more comfort chairs and better seating. Still 5 stars!

Our stay at the cottage was lovely. Ashley was quick to respond when we were having trouble with the WIFI . It was so peaceful and managed to spot a dear as we arrived. Would highly recommend. Colin, Michael &Lina.

We stayed here a few days in May. The Cottage is very remote, but you can reach the next village in arround 10 minutes by car. It offers great views of the surrounding area. the hot tub was amazing. Also the fireplace. we came to do some hikes and in the end decided to stay a whole day in the cottage, because it was so great.

Was very happy with our stay here, The evening with the hot tub was lovely and private, everything was clean and well presented. There was games left in the house for our use and we got use of these. The instructions before arriving to find location was helpful although the postcode in Apple Maps did take us straight the correct location which was great. Overall we were very pleased with the whole experience and would stay again. The added bonus was the hosts had a new puppy and we got to meet this beautiful fur baby on checkout.

An absolutely wonderful stay at Tamano Farm for my partners birthday with our friends and toddler. The cottage is spacious, clean, family friendly and comfortable with all amenities you can ask for. The kitchen was well equipped and the large dining table was great for dining together. Our toddler especially enjoyed seeing the sheep, lambs and feeding the donkeys. The surroundings are very peaceful and scenic. We appreciated the effort to be as eco friendly as possible. Everyone loved the hot tub and sauna. Takes some time to set up, that is to be expected as wood fired but was well worth it and very relaxing. Very friendly hosts with great communication. No complaints about our stay at all we could have stayed for much longer. Thank you for having us!

We enjoyed a lovely stay at the house. Beautiful and serene surroundings. Was a great place to relax and unwind… Great day trips nearby. Would recommend you bring in all your provisions at the start of your stay and kitchen is fully equipped. Caroline was easy to contact and fast to respond. We chose to use the hot tub which was ready for us when we arrived and easy to operate. Our only wish was that had we known, it really should be drained & refilled after two days of use since there are no added chemicals (which is a plus) Overall a wonderful experience & would highly recommend

Had a lovely time in Kinlochleven, amazing views and the house was very homely. Was super handy having well detailed guestbook.

We stayed for 4 nights and highly recommend. The cottage is clean, cosy and comfortable and is kitted out with everything you’d need. It’s well placed for trips to Aviemore and Kingussie, we visited Loch Morlich and Loch Ness to name a few. Really brilliant decor throughout and the hosts have paid a lot of attention to detail. The bed is really comfy too. We were lucky enough to see a woodpecker among other birds at the feeder outside the window, as well as a red squirrel which we loved! We also had our dog with us and he enjoyed walking and sniffing nearby the cottage. Unfortunately we had quite a bit of rain during our stay but even that didn’t seem so bad because the sound of the rain on the roof somehow made us feel even more cosy. Absolutely can’t fault this beautiful cottage and would definitely recommend to anyone considering.

The stay at the beautiful cottage was exceptional. The views from the house are amazing, the house is equipped with high end bathroom and bedroom fabrics and amenities and the house is beautifully decorated and very spacious. Even more beautiful than on the pictures. As a welcome there was a hand written card and hand picked wildflowers and a very generous food package with milk, eggs, ciders, treats etc. Rachel was responding very quickly and was super nice and helpful. When we are in the area again we would be back any time. Highly recommended.

We had a great stay at the cottage; it’s remote and peaceful. The cottage was well-equipped and cosy. The conservatory is great for reading and relaxing and there is an amazing collection of DVDs! The surrounding area is beautiful and there are nice walks in the area. The nearest supermarket is in Aberfeldy, about 10 minutes away.

I used Louise's place as my last Airbnb on a hiking tour I did of the Highlands and I felt so lucky to have done so. The bed was the most comfortable I slept in for 3 weeks and the whole space was so quiet. I was very grateful I chose to stay in Boat of Garten and not in Aviemore (way too busy). Louise was also exceptionally kind and friendly. Also, having a full kitchen with washing machine for clothes was a great way to "return to civilization" after all my hiking. I would be very pleased to stay here again.

This is a great cottage in an excellent location. Grantown is well situated for day trips or finding and enjoying places off the beaten track. Fiona's cottage is clean, spacious and we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Very comfortable cottage in peaceful location yet only a couple of minutes walk from the main street of Braemar.

John's place is just incredible. We spent 2 nights here and had a lovely stay. The kitchen is well stocked. The washer and dryer work well. The cottage has so many personal touches, definitely an A+ for comfort. The fresh flowers and champagne left for us just added to our delight with the place.

We had a terrific evening at the gatehouse. There were 3 adults in our group and the property was perfect. Having a washer/dryer was fabulous. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook dinner. This property is very clean and comfortable. We loved the castle grounds, it really is a beautiful spot. Thank you for a great stay.

Megan and Sean’s place is beautiful—thoughtfully designed, well equipped, and tastefully decorated. It was perfect for our family of five (two adults and three children). Megan went above and beyond, even baking a cake and bringing fresh flowers from her garden to welcome us. The house is full of charming details and has been expertly renovated, blending the character of the old building with modern comforts. We especially appreciated the thoughtful extras for families—there were toys and board games that kept the kids happily entertained. There was also a wealth of local resources—books, maps, and guides—to help us explore the region. Firewood was provided for the fireplace, and the BBQ was ready to go with a full gas tank. It’s a wonderful place to relax—we’ll definitely be back.

Claire’s place was the perfect spot for relaxation after a day of mountain climbing! Easy access to get into town to run to the store as well as a gorgeous view of Ben Nevis!

The Bothy is a super space, it has everything you need in a simple layout, with space to relax inside and beautiful surroundings outside. If you want peace and quiet and somewhere to clear your head it is perfect. The access to loch, wood and hill walks is on your doorstep and if you want to take on the challenge on some Munros they are easily accessible too, which worked really well for me. I had a great stay - it could not have been better.

A lovely comfortable and well renovated cottage in a wonderful location. Well situated for exploring the Scottish Highlands. Would highly recommend.

This cottage is one of a kind. What a beautiful and authentic Scottish home and surroundings. Yvonne was very responsive when we needed her. Incredible stay!

The cottage is in a great spot in Ballater. We could start exploring the area right at our doorstep. The cottage provided plenty of space for the two of us and was well appointed. It was also very quiet. A lovely place in a lovely little town!

Fairygreen Cottage was the last stop on our holiday trip and it couldn't have been better! From the first step into the house until the very last minute, we absolutely enjoyed our stay there. The cottage is lovingly furnished, equipped with everything one needs and shows a high standard in quality. We felt very welcomed and comfortable and wish to come back!
