About this property
This charming country cottage tucked away in the garden of a traditional farmhouse in the magnificent Scottish Highlands is an ideal romantic retreat. Situated at the northern end of the UK’s largest national park, the Cairngorms, this property is in the ‘Forest Village’ of Nethy Bridge; so called because of its close proximity to the ancient Abernethy Forest, home to many rare and unusual varieties and species of flora and fauna. Guests also have a range of activities on offer to them, whatever the season; with walking and cycling on one of the many forest trails or around a nearby loch, winter sports in the mountains and golf at one of the area’s earliest 9-hole courses, to name but a few, you’ll be spoilt for choice. The delightful village of Aviemore, the outdoor centre of the Cairngorms, is only 11 miles away.
Set amongst 2 acres of grounds on the edge of the forest, guests will love the tranquillity surrounding this quaint cottage. Stepping inside, the door from the garden leads straight into the open-plan living area, which is snug and cosy with a wood burner at its centre. The kitchen is amply equipped to allow you to cook a romantic meal for two. The king-size bedroom (can be made up as a twin on request) is well-presented with an en-suite bathroom. Four steps outside lead down to the utility room in the cellar which is ideal for wet weather gear.
Outside, guests are invited to enjoy the grounds, including its BBQ, summer house and romantic seating area. There is also a seating area to the front of the cottage, where you can enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an evening dram of whisky.
