Surrounded by the dramatic landscape of the Cairngorms National Park in the pretty Highland village of Boat Of Garten is this delightful holiday accommodation, The Cairn.
This detached property is a rare find for families or friends seeking a delightful base in which to explore this part of Scotland, littered with rugged landscapes, an abundance of wildlife and plenty of outdoor attractions.
As you enter the property, be welcomed into the utility, boasting a washing machine so that you can easily freshen up your belongings after a muddy walk before venturing further into the property.
Regroup with your loved ones at the heart of the home, the open-plan living room, filled with elegant interiors and complemented by all the essentials required for a self-catering experience.
When you feel like trying your hand at cooking, rather than sampling the culinary delights of Boat Of Garten, make use of the quality range of appliances within the kitchen area, including an electric oven and hob, microwave and fridge/freezer, as well as a dishwasher to offer a helping hand.
Evening meals can be enjoyed at the dining table before you flick on the electric fire, sink into the sofa and tune into the Smart TV. Concluding the interior of the dwelling are the two elegantly-appointed bedrooms, a double bedroom and a single bedroom, both enjoying refreshing hues of colour and plush linens awaiting to be curled up under after a busy day. Centrally located within the village, this is the ideal location to discover the delights of Boat Of Garten, home to a selection of restaurants, bar, a Post Office, a shop and a café and also a steam train station which connects to Aviemore.
From here, you can look forward to trying your hand at fishing on the River Spey, or play a round of golf at the Boat of Garten Golf, an 18-hole course designed by professional golfer and golf-course architect, James Braid.
The village is well-known for being the home of the Osprey, due to its close proximity to RSPB: Loch Garten, a wonderful opportunity for birdwatching or leisurely strolls amidst endearing wildlife.
Whilst staying here, families of all ages will be delighted by Landmark Forest Adventure Park, whilst those seeking to brush up on the local history can visit the landmark of Aviemore Ring Cairn and Stone Circle and Loch an Eilein, Rothiemurchus.
Alternatively, enjoy endless outdoor fun upon the National Park, boasting incredible high and low level walking and cycling routes, surrounded by breath-taking scenery.
The Cairn is the ideal base for that long-awaited trip to Scotland.

Not to be put off by this little hidden cottage- down a lane at the back of shop. Inside was beautiful. Clean, beautifully decorated with good amenities. Amazing base for walking, activities and finding peace. Perfect to take the dog and explore this beautiful area. The utility room was a gift. Muddy boots and wet shoes stored here. Dry and warm the next morning and no dirt through the house.
Amazing stay at The Cairn!
