Stylish traditional cottage in the heart of Whisky country

At an elevation of 354m (1160 feet), on the snow road and on the fringe of the Cairngorm Mountains this cottage is well placed for exploring the malt whisky distilleries and the great outdoors. The wood burning stove and private enclosed garden make it a real home from home and it is a short walk to pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops. Sleeps 4 adults comfortably and there is space for an additional travel cot for infants. Central heating and double glazing with towels, linen and toiletries provided.

Lovely property
Really lovely property, fully equipped with all we needed. Slight musty/damp smell in the bedrooms, but lots of air fresheners!! The lounge is delightful with the exposed beams and log burner. Slight confusion over the check out time - VRBO stated 11am but info in the cottage stated 10am.

4-night stay
We loved the general area and the relative ease to get to places of interest in the Cairngorms, Speyside and on the coast. The cottage came as billed. It was relatively comfortable, although the furniture and beds are more serviceable than super comfortable. Not having the drying machine was a drawback. Tomintoul itself is small - few restaurants and only basic supplies at the Post Office. Again, that was billed in the information. Communicating with Alisa was straightforward. In all, the cottage was safe and clean but if you are looking for a spot with more services Tomintoul is probably not for you.
