8/10 Very good

We enjoyed our stay. It was so nice to be part of a smaller place and such personal service. Breakfast was great. They were so accommodating. Only issue we ran into was laundry. It was in the listing but was really very limited so wouldn’t plan on laundry in this location.

We loved our stay here! Mark was so kind and attentive. The food was lovely, the room incredibly clean and tasteful. Mark had recommended we go to Delaney’s (just a 3 min walk down the road) which was delicious. He also encouraged us to take the bus up to Loch Morlich, which I highly recommend! We hope you’ll enjoy staying here as much as we did ☺️

Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was perfect, from pulling into the car park, after spotting the well appointed clear sign sign and being greeted by the person that I assume was the owner. Then being shown to my room after explaining where everything is and breakfast times. The room (No. 6) was a nice size, very clean and tidy, lovely view of the mountains. I stayed for 2 nights, the bed was comfy but a little soft for my liking. Breakfast was very nice... lot's of options I had full "Cairngorn" breakfast which was perfectly good and served really quickly. Staff were superb, polite, attentive, courteous..... couldn't fault, would highly recommend..... and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Excellent hospitality! Breakfast was phenomenal! Only a couple things…a hair dryer would have been helpful and we didn’t get replacement toilet paper one day, but we had extra with us. Appreciated the recommendations of places to see! Would stay again!

A lovely guest house in the Cairngorms

This is a lovely guest house - very well appointed and comfortable. The owner is extremely helpful and the breakfast was excellent. Travelers arriving on the train should note that the guest house is approximately 6/10 of a mile from the train station. It is not a difficult walk but could be trying in bad weather.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

We really enjoyed our stay in the family room at Cairngorm Guest House. Super clean and comfortable with an incredible breakfast service included before we headed out for a day of adventuring! We really appreciated the drying room at the property after our brief and rainy visit! Parking was a bit tight, but adequate, so we loved that there were several dining options in walking distance too!
