A comfortable, warm house.. Decor was a bit dated but fitted the farmhouse feel of the property. There is a lovely big garden in the property with Apple trees. Garden is not totally enclosed. Property is a short walk from the village but on a busy road. Village is very quiet but there are some nice walks not far from the house. We had a nice stay in the property.

Excellent location and a very homely cottage.. Kids loved the garden and it was a good split having 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom upstairs and 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom downstairs. Was very good value for money and we all really enjoyed our stay. Would recommend!

Newlands was the perfect getaway for New Year.. The house was clean, cosy and comfortable with a very well equipped kitchen for cooking. Central heating was super efficient and log fire added to the winter warmth. The 5 ring stove and double oven were a treat. Views over Ben Rinnes were stunning. Sunrise and sunset were especially amazing. We loved standing outside at night time and admiring all the stars. Lovely walk down a forest track to Aberlour for a pint in the Mash Tun, then along the Spey to Craigellachie for lunch at the Copper Dog and a wee Dram in the Highlander. Pippa was very helpful. Great walks in the woods behind Archiestown too. Loved it. Hope to be back soon.

We were very uncomfortable on the beds, the mattresses were too hard and the springs in them lumpy.. As I have arthritis the pain was worse after trying to sleep on the beds. I had to put am duvet on top of the matress to enable me to sleep at all, my daughter suffered back pain and this worried me as she is only young. We left early on the Wednesday instead of Saturday due to this and the weather drawing in. There were too few logs left for the log burner and we had to purchase our own which were hard to find, and when we did they were expensive. We needed the burner as it got quite cool in the evenings. We had not expected this additional expense so we left early.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay but had to buy a larger teapot and a jug to meet our catering needs.. It would also have been useful to know just what soap was being supplied in the bathrooms.

A comfy cottage with massive garden and local walks from cottage into forest .. Good location as can do inland and coastal walks - Morayshire coast was spectacular . Note - no dishwasher - may be an issue for a large party. Initial issues with level of cleaning on arrival - owner apologised and plans to address with cleaning staff, so hopefully will no longer be an issue. Despite above we would return to this property and we had an excellent holiday here.

A very well placed cottage for visiting distilleries or just going for walks.. It is very comfortable and there's plenty of room for all the family and visiting friends, the garden is also large with lots of of visiting birds which the children loved to feed and watch. We would highly recommend this cottage it is warm (loved the wood burner) and relaxing and we will book again.

The situation of the cottage was ideal for us, it also had spectacular views. It is a very attractive cottage with an excellent lounge, very spacious, good burning stove and had a welcoming feel about it. The bedrooms too were spacious and well appointed. We very much enjoyed staying in the cottage as did friends who joined us.

The house was very comfortable with everything we needed for the week's stay. The area was very quiet, and the local residents were friendly. There were several places close by to visit.
