We who stayed in the North Wing loved the place, it was full of character and charm but also very practical for our groups needs.

This cottage had everything we needed. A great location, ample parking, the cottage itself was very clean and homely. There was a big well equipped kitchen, a lovely cosy sitting room with open fire, logs provided, and comfortable beds.

The location of the property is excellent - although ...more
It was like always, a wonderful time on Alvie that happened way too fast. All people were helpful and friendly, you can not ask for more! I am looking forward to the next stay there. Greetings Wolfgang
I would highly recommend staying here. Every comfort is catered for, with access to a wide and varied range of activities on site. It's very central to the area....Aviemore, Inverness, Wildlife Park and much more.
