8/10 Very good

Lovely hosts, comfortable and clean. Only niggle was that we were in the attic with only a skylight looking out on chimneys. I thought it a bit pricey for a room with no views.

Amazing Cottage Stay

We had a wonderful stay at the Cardhu Cottage House! The room was very comfortable and the mattress perfect for a good night sleep! The breakfast was delicious and the French press coffee an extra bonus(a good cup of coffee so scarce in Scotland)! Colin and Sara were perfect hosts, very knowledgeable of the area and so friendly!! I highly recommend this place! It is very conveniently located to the many attractions in the area!!

Lovely B&B! Very convenient for distillery tours. It was so nice to sit out in the late evenings and talk to other guests. We could walk to the Cardhu distillery. Breakfast by Collin & his wife was excellent! My first taste of Haggie and black pudding, I am hooked! Our room was straightened out everyday, which was really nice!

Short break during the Speyside Whisky Festival

Host Colin made us feel welcome straight away and was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area. Guest rooms have everything you'd need for a short break, The rate included a lovely freshly cooked breakfast with plenty of choices and a homemade granola and berry compote to start with, fresh pots of coffee and toast. The House is a short 15-minute drive to a number of small towns nearby with pubs and restaurants.

Fantastic Experience! Colin and Sarah were wonderful hosts. The room was large and comfortable. The food was excellent, make sure to book a dinner! We needed an early start and they accommodated us with an early breakfast (also excellent food). If I could give more than 5 stars I would. This hotel is also within walking distance to the Cardhu distillery so that is a nice perc as well.
