This is a perfect cottage in a stunning location. The cottage was spotless throughout, with all furniture and fittings of the highest standard, and is a credit to the owners. The superb welcome hamper was also highly appreciated. The location is perfect for relaxation, as the only noise is from the surrounding wildlife and farm animals, and it is cRead moreompletely secluded. It was difficult to leave, but we had a fantastic week and will certainly consider a return in future. Hide

Another fantastic stay at this beautiful property. The weather was really hot, but we still managed to see lots of wildlife both around the croft and further afield.

June

Lovely spacious house. Able to spread ourselves about and enjoy the stunning views across to Beinn-An-Fhudair and enjoy a lovely walk to the solitary tree on the hill top! Great to watch, listen, and feed the birds in the garden and the blackheaded gulls in the wee lochan. Very special watching all the comings and goings of the farm, seeing all the baby lambs, and chatting to and meeting owner Heather - such a lovely caring person. Hot tub and lovely warm bathrooms downstairs were a joy to use.

Amazing cottage in a brilliant location, it is close to all the main areas but remote enough to enjoy the peace and quiet. Brilliant facilities and so clean and tidy. I loved staying here and the owner is so lovely. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

Ryan

A beautiful property in a lovely location, really enjoyed the hands off approach of the host as it made us feel like it was our home for the week. Garden was amazing for us and our dog and was given some extra fencing to dog proof the gate so he could run around stress free. Views from the cottage are amazing and you're within short driving distanc e of all the amenities you'll need, would really recommend this property especially if you're wanting to visit some distilleries.

What a wonderful cottage with fantastic views. It was comfortable and clean. Very spacious, the hot tub was a success and very much appreciated after long walks in the national park. It is well equipped for cooking all varieties of food. The owner was very attentive and nothing was too much.

Wow, this is truly the best holiday cottage I've stayed in. The cottage was incredibly well appointed, with pretty much everything we could think of in the kitchen. We were even able to do some baking on a rainy day. The bedrooms were all good sized and comfortable. The bathrooms are just lovely with great water pressure. The underfloor heating fel t luxurious and the views were just stunning! The hot tub was well used, especially after climbing a mountain.

Jacqueline

Thoroughly enjoyed our family get together at Ballinluig Croft, which was well appointed & had everything we needed. Our Cockapoo loved the secure garden & there were some great forest walks not too far away. We were lucky & had reasonable weather for October. Throughout the week we visited Landmark Adventure Park, Highland Wildlife Park & took a t rip on Strathspey Steam Railway plus visits to Boat of Garten, Aviemore & Grantown on Spey, all are within no more than 20 mins away from Croft.
