Lovely country vibe hotel that is very Cairngorms

9.0

Lovely location and wonderfully retro replete with tartan tie-back curtains with obligatory creaky stairs. Terrific balcony if you go for the its floor.

Stand-in bath shower.

Great Scottish themed hotel with lovely food

9.0

Friendly accommodating staff, great theme and styling throughout the hotel. Delicous food (breakfast and dinner).

Not the greatest soundproofing and no beer on tap

Terrasse privative clôturée (bien pour notre chien)

A rafraichir (années 70/80), situé au bord d'une route passante. Chambre plutôt exiguë.
