I suppose its true you get what you pay for.. the house was very drab cold and draughty. The front door didn't fit properly so the wind whistled through, the front room door we had to wedge folded up paper to keep it shut, we left early ( on Thursday) because the weather was bad and the house held no comfort just to sit there. However the beds were clean and comfortable

Owner Kathleen met us on our arrival and showed us around the cottage; happy to answer any questions.. I met her several times after that and on each occasion she was very helpful and friendly. For me, the cottage offered 2 key provisions, both integral to the success of the holiday. My disabled son was able to use the downstairs facilities well and, as our dog was allowed to stay too, our time there was very enjoyable. Overall, lovely owner and well-equipped holiday home.

The pretty stone cottage is really nice to stay in, with elegant and comfortable furniture, a well-equipped kitchen, a cosy flame-effect electric fire for chilly evenings, and an absolutely beautiful garden.. We only met the landlady, Kathleen, after a couple of days, as she had to be away on our first day, so the key was handed over by her husband, who is less outgoing. However, when we did meet Kathleen, we liked her very much. She is very warm and friendly, and told us lots of interesting background detail about the area. We had many beautiful walks on the hills round Tomintoul, as well as a stunning "Viewpoints" walk at the nearest slightly larger town, Grantown-on-Spey, and a fantastic visit to the Highland Wildlife Park. We enjoyed eating out in several of the nearby pubs and hotels, and would particularly recommend the Hotel Square. An excellent holiday.
