About this property
Kincraig 2 miles.
A wonderful detached cottage in rural woodland on the edge of the village of Insh, just 2 miles from the Highland village of Kincraig. Lovingly decorated and furnished, this Kincraig cottage has been built in an eco-friendly style using some of the stone from the original cottage on the site, which means that the walls are up to a foot and a half thick in places. South facing, with open views across the fields and hills where you can see buzzards and deer, this Kincraig cottage is full of light and is ideal for a family holiday in the rugged and beautiful Cairngorms National Park. At this Kincraig cottage there are three bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, offering flexibility and choice for the whole family. The living accommodation at this Kincraig cottage is enhanced by the open fire which means that you can curl up on chilly evenings with a warming drink and reflect on your day's activities. Outside this Kincraig cottage is a large enclosed garden, perfect for the children to let off steam, and is just a two minute walk to Manse Bay on the shore of Loch Insh where you can see whooper swans and many other water birds and is a wonderful place to have a dram of whisky and watch the sun go down. For the more adventurous, the Loch Insh activity and watersports centre is just a short walk away, where you can enjoy a range of watersports including canoeing, sailing and windsurfing. Golfers are well catered for at this Kincraig cottage with a number of courses nearby including Kingussie which is one of Scotland's most beautiful courses. For winter sports enthusiasts, this Kincraig cottage is just ten miles from the skiing centre of Cairngorm, from where you can access a whole range of exciting activities.
