"Nice caravan in the quiet town of Boat of Garten. We stayed here four days as our base for day trips to the Cairngorms, Nairn and Inverness. The caravan was clean and nicely appointed. Just be aware the Wi-Fi is non-existent—never got it to work—and the washer and dryer is in a separate building and cost a total of 9.5 pounds per load. Otherwise all good!"

"Lovely, comfortable cottage in a great location for a range of activities. Cosy for an October break but would be fantastic in warmer weather too. Our only small criticism was the night time temperature was set at 15 degrees and couldn’t be changed and while there was lots of cosy bedding we had a toddler who still wakes a couple of times in the night so it was a bit cold tending to him. Still a 5⭐️ break."

Our lodge, Little Lodge 2, was immaculate and in pristine condition. The spotlessly clean windows afforded uninterrupted views of the serene surroundings, the lodges being extremely well spaced out. The owners, Ross and Georgina were away for the duration of our stay but we were warmly welcomed by Georgina’s father, Duncan. The nearby towns of Pitlochry and...
