The owner met us with the keys and showed us the cabin. It's quite small but was great for a night and we appreciated the peaceful space and views of the castle. We were given coffee, eggs, milk, butter and bread. Unfortunately I became sick and...

It was more spacious than expected. Very well situated with a lovely view of the Auld Kirk, Castle Roy, and the nightly sunset. One of us is 6’3” and fit pretty well.

Wonderful farm experience, so fun with all the horses and donkeys around. Famous nearby trail for a lovely evening stroll and close to a castle ruin. Breakfast included some free range eggs, milk, and butter. Very peaceful and relaxing.

Very quiet location but close to some great walks and nature reserves. The host left us some local eggs, milk etc to get us started. The cabin was spacious and well layed out. Perfect for a short break.

On a working farm, these pods are overlooked by the ruins on Roy Castle. The “Guardian of the Castle” is a magnificent Highland cow. Horses and mules roam the fields outside the front door. This is simply a peaceful and perfect spot.

This is a super luxury large glamping lodge featuring a large open plan kitchen-dining-sitting-room; a completely separate bedroom with walk around double bed and floor to ceiling walk in wardrobe and a shower room with power shower. All linen and towels are provided and a welcome pack to set your holiday off to a good stress free start. There is a lovely deck where you can sip a glass of wine looking out over horses to the countryside of Strathspey. We are a small horse farm located in the heart of the Cairngorm National Park on the edge of the RSPB Abernethy Bird Reserve. The nature reserve is the largest remaining area of natural Caledonian pine wood in Europe. We have two glamping pods which are brand new for the 2022 season and set in a small wild flower meadow which should be established and flowering in 2023. This is the perfect retreat if you enjoy peace and quiet, activity holidays like sailing, mountain biking, walking and skiing in the Winter. The area abounds in wildlife and has been frequently featured on BBC Springwatch because of the richness of the ecosystem in the Cairngorms. We look forward to welcoming you to our peaceful corner of the World.
We have been working in tourism for many years and enjoy meeting new people from different pats of the World. We are lucky to live in such a beautiful area rich in wildlife and culture and enjoy sharing it with our guests.
Nethy Bridge is known as the forest village as it is situated on the edge of the Abernethy RSPB nature reserve. The reserve is the largest remaining area of natural Scots Caledonian pinewood left in Scotland. We are about 2 miles from Loch Garten where Ospreys have been coming for many years to nest and raise their young. The Cairngorm National Park offers a wide variety of activities including mountain biking, sailing and windsurfing, climbing and skiing, horse riding, walking and plenty of wildlife and photography opportunities. We would be delighted to point you in the right direction.
