Reviews and Testimonials for Strathspey Cottage
Dear Linda and John
We spent a fantastic 5 days at your beautiful cottage. We just thought we'd drop you a line to say it was one of the best cottages we've stayed at - well stocked, beautifully decorated and furnished as well as situated! It makes a change as many self catering properties are so old fashioned and run down. Many thanks also fo the information on things to do and see in the area. We really didn't want to leave! AT, Halifax
Hi Linda
The holiday was great. Really like the renovation that you have done on the place, very comfortable. I would emphasise the sea fishing potential from outside the cottage more as well as the potential for bike riding. For those interested in trees like me the place is like Jurassic Park, especially Benmore which is beautiful. Thanks again DW, Chesterfield.
Dear Linda
We are just home from our sojourn at Strathspey, and in spite of variable weather had a really lovely week, with two days of enforced idleness reading the papers due to heavy rain, but plenty of good bright spring weather too.
We appreciated the welcome bottle, cookies, milk and tea, and were extremely comfortable. I don't know if you actually refurbished the cottage yourselves but the result is very pleasing and seems far more spacious than the exterior suggests.
We would be keen to visit again. We are hooked on the area, and of course for us it is very accessible, a major factor for my mother who does not travel far these days. MB, Glasgow
