Property info

Shetland Cottage, Kincraig is set in stunning scenery in the Scottish Highlands, only seven miles south of Aviemore, gateway to the Cairngorms. Adjacent to the Highland Wildlife Park, Shetland Cottage is part of the Meadowside House group of holiday lets. The historic stone-built complex is very easy to access by road and rail, and Inverness Airport is only an hour away. Shetland's accommodation sleeps 4 comfortably, in a double and a twin bedroom, with a cosy lounge and a well-equipped kitchen diner too. Outside there is a large fenced garden. This is mainly lawned, and is an ideal place for children to play or dogs to exercise. The complex as a whole boasts fabulous views of the Cairngorm Mountains and Spey Valley, more than an acre of grass and scrub for additional dog walking and a shared barbecue area. In all there are 13 holiday cottages in this converted cottage hospital. The Cairngorms and Spey Valley are a fantastic holiday destination, boasting countless activities and endless open air spaces for walking, cycling and water sports. And lets not forget the fantastic pubs, restaurants and cafes around the area. It's fantastic, so no wonder people keep coming back.

Neighborhood info

The Cairngorms and the surrounding areas are full of things to do. There's wildlife and nature, sports and physical pursuits, heritage and cultural activities, food and drink. We have everything from native red squirrels to polar bears at The Highland Wildlife Park, birdwatching at RSPB Insh Marshes, the Cairngorm reindeer herd, and further afield, the dolphins in the Moray Firth. Outdoors there's walking, cycling and running all around the beautiful Spey Valley; snowsports at Cairngorm mountain, mountain biking at Wolftrax Laggan, watersports and more at Loch Insh. There's lots of historical interest too. There is the Highland Folk Museum, then there's original art and craft at the Iona Gallery, Kingussie. There are lots of excellent places to eat and drink. Try the Suie Inn & Gallery Cafe, Kincraig & Boathouse Restaurant at Loch Insh...with many more in and around Aviemore and Kingussie.
