About this property
Laggan 7 miles.
A fully renovated, detached property situated in a magnificently isolated position, 7 miles from the rural village of Laggan, in the Cairngorms National Park. Offering well-equipped, tastefully furnished accommodation of a high standard, this Scotland cottage is light and airy, with a woodburner in the comfy sitting room, and patio doors from the kitchen/diner on to a decked area and country-style garden. The area is wonderful for outdoor pursuits, with much to do at all times of the year including mountain biking (the Wolftrax mountain bike trail is close by), hill walking, climbing and skiing, with ample opportunity to see a variety of wildlife. The dramatic views of Loch Laggan, or the museums, shops and pubs of Newtonmore are within easy reach, and the area itself was the setting for the television series Monarch of the Glen. A wonderful area to explore, and a fantastic cottage for relaxing in splendid isolation. This property can be booked with ref number 1046039, sleeping a total of 6 people. EPC Rating: Band D

The cottage is immaculate and beautifully and stylishly presented. It is also very cosy (we were there during an unseasonal cold snap) and has every facility we needed for cooking entirely for ourselves and for every other aspect of our stay. It is also brilliantly situated in beautiful scenery with mountains in very easy reach (we are mountain walkers) and next to an arterial route between east and west making day trips to either Fort William or Inverness entirely feasible.

The cottage its self was excellent, very well equipped, warm and comfortable. It had a well equipped kitchen, and lounge area and the wi-fi was great. I would highly recommend this cottage, and would not hesitate to come back for another stay.

Very secluded and private which is what we wanted. Amazing Wi-Fi and I work from home so thatâs perfect - so great if you want to be plugged or unplugged! However, there were a couple of things to address. Sykes need to make it clear with what three words where the house is. The place was hard to find. We used the address given to us by Sykes and we were not given a what three words. So we called the host and she was unable to give us a what three words when I asked even though she mentioned it first. She also seemed very unhappy with us ringing and not at all pleasant to call at all so that was pretty uncomfortable. The sofas also need to be changed. They are the most uncomfortable sofa set Iâve ever sat on to the point of giving me backache.
