What a find! Lovely warm welcome from Sam. From the moment we arrived Sam and his team couldn’t be more accommodating and helpful. Freshly renovated to an excellent standard. They have thought about everything for guests. The homemade cookies on arrival was a nice touch. Breakfast was a great selection and 10 from us all.

The hotel is in an old building but beautifully renovated. The rooms are clean, nice and refreshingly designed and decorated, the shower is large and spacious and the bed is really comfortable and big, we had a great night sleep. Close to the beautiful town of Aviemore where you can find restaurants, Cafe’s, stores and supermarkets. We stayed for one night only but could stay much longer! Very recommended!

We stayed for 3 nights - 4 adults and 3 young kids and we had a wonderfull vacation. The place is amazing. The house was big, clean and had everything you need for a long stay - big livingroom, long big table, full kithcen with dishwasher, 2 bathrooms and showers, washing maching and also a sauna and a balcony. The 3 bedrooms were big and comfortable. The place has free pool, gym and souna which is great, especially when you are with kids. Also great fields and grass for the kids to play. Wifi was good and ofcourse free parking. Location is also great near Avimor, easy base to travel around.

We had the most lovely stay at Silverglades! We booked "Deluxe two bedroom - no pets" and ended up with the cutest little cottage in the perfect location. It backed onto the farmers fields and we woke up to the sheep's and cows grazing each morning, as well as an uninterrupted view of the mountains. The cottage was equipped with all that we needed for our 5 nights. Can't wait to make it back someday.

I had imagined Aviemore to be an old town like Pitlochry and Dunkeld, but in fact all the buildings in the Main Street seem to be fairly new, apart from the railway station. It has lots of shops selling outdoor clothing, and is not very attractive architecturally.

We went to Ballater to be close to Balmoral Castle, where we went to an artisans market on the grounds. We were there in October, so opening of other parts of the castle were not available, due to royal residence use. I would return to this beautiful part of Scotland again if given the chance, to see more of the castle.

The countryside in autumn was spectacular. There are lots of local walks to suit different levels of fitness. The Spey is nearby so iconic itself and for the whisky distilleries along its banks. Interesting local shops. Fresh local produce. Nice folk. Close enough for trips to the Moray Coast and Cairngorms. Golf, fishing, garden nurseries all in easy reach.

Kingussie is ideal for people who want beautiful walks or a bit of climbing or cycling. There’s a fantastic bike shop called Bothy Bikes where you can hire e- bikes to explore the area. The scenery in this area is outstandingly beautiful. There is the potential to see local wildlife if you are quiet.

Boat of Garten is a small village which has some good features and services, including a pub, a village store, pizza shop, art gallery and historic railway station. It is well located in relation to forest walks and other outdoor activities. For any significant shopping you needs to travel nearby Aviemore, 4.5 miles away. We preferred the peace and quiet of Boat of Garten for our stay in the area.

Nestled amongst the mountains with paths and tracks leading all over what’s not to like? Sadly, the general facilities here have gone. No shop for example. One place did have a sign out for coffee, but there could be an opportunity here for someone. Worth climbing up the Cateran Trail heading south to get stunning views looking down on the village. Also visit the stone circle, old bridge and the church. Just soak up the atmosphere!
