The ease of arrival, and help in finding our way including with the Parking was a lovely way of being welcomed. The whole stay was very comfortable. The staff were faultless. Everywhere impeccable and lots of details (quality of soap and shampoos etc a nice surprise.) We would mention in particular Tracey who was so incredibly welcoming and accommodating in terms of our planning and change of mind to stay on. Dinner was five star - and we ate in the hotel the whole time it was so good. And that includes the extremely good value for breakfast which kept us going all day.. The managing team was very present and checking in on the customers which is always a big plus ! Great value for money. We will be back …

Tracey and Steve are impeccable hosts. We loved chatting with them. They gave us great and thoughtful tips about the area and what to do there. Another shining star in our stay was the breakfast - absolutely scrumptious. Definitely try the porridge!

I loved the style, the location, the breakfast that had loads of non-dairy options, the restaurant that offered simple dishes like soup of the day, the food options, the drinks options, the staff, the owners that were lovely, and above all the fact that it’s right by a forest with beautiful walks.

    The room was stunning, 4 poster bed with green velvet drapes, genuine antique furniture, stunning. The castle is staffed by well trained kind professional staff who go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable and happy. The food was lovely and very generous. The location is gorgeous, do be prepared for a longish drive through the hills to get there. ...but we'll worth it.. Can't wait to go back for another visit

    A beautiful small hotel in which you have filling like you've stepped back into a beautiful past. Some people might not like it, but it's fantastic when you hear the creaking of the floors, as if you've stepped back into the 19th century, classic Scottish breakfast...beautiful. We took dinner in hotels pub. We had dinner at the hotel pub which serves excellent local food. A truly wonderful experience.

    Stunning views! Beautifully made log cabin nestled on the hill side overlooking the Loch Insh. The pictures don’t do justice for this place. It very well exceeded our expectations. Truely Highlands feel … The staff were amazing and very friendly. One morning when we were having breakfast outside the chalet, one of the restaurant staff stopped by for a chat and offered to take a photo of our family.

    Aviemore is obviously a town built around tourism, and so is fairly expensive, and not particularly historic. But it has all the necessary facilities, with a good choice of bars and restaurants, and its in a great location to explore the Cairngorms.

    It was a stopover for us. If I had known more about the region we would have orranged an extra night. We did do a tour of the Dalwhinnie Distillery on our way south which was great. Make a booking - we were lucky as we hadn't made a one but there was two extra spots. Loved the Duke of Gordon hotel. So very old school and so beautiful. Great value for money.

    Boat of Garten is a small village which has some good features and services, including a pub, a village store, pizza shop, art gallery and historic railway station. It is well located in relation to forest walks and other outdoor activities. For any significant shopping you needs to travel nearby Aviemore, 4.5 miles away. We preferred the peace and quiet of Boat of Garten for our stay in the area.

    Very disappointing stay. Staff were rude and unhelpful - especially at breakfast. Dining staff Bella’s behaviour was shockingly unprofessional and not acceptable. Dirty, smelly rooms, one with a broken bed. Complaints were brushed off with a simple “sorry.” We booked 4 rooms for family visiting from Canada and deeply regret choosing this hotel. Definitely not worth the 4-star rating.

    Nestled amongst the mountains with paths and tracks leading all over what’s not to like? Sadly, the general facilities here have gone. No shop for example. One place did have a sign out for coffee, but there could be an opportunity here for someone. Worth climbing up the Cateran Trail heading south to get stunning views looking down on the village. Also visit the stone circle, old bridge and the church. Just soak up the atmosphere!

We stayed at Dalgriene Guest house which I'd highly recommend. We ate at The Loft Restaurant and would definitely eat there again. I can't wait to go back and explore the village further
