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!

Exactly what I needed as a base for hiking. Really friendly staff, excellent room, good breakfast, close to all town’s facilities (without being in the middle of them.) All good!
Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were a big party of 10 and we had a great time staying with you guys. We did ask on the second morning if we could all eat breakfast in the conservatory area and were told no we had to sit at our allocated tables, this did seem a bit strange but it did not detract from our enjoyment . Mark is a marvellous host
Jeannie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our host, Mark, was a treasure, full of genial conversation and good advice for hikes in the hills and other doings around town. The breakfast offerings every morning were delightful, as satisfying as they were tasty. The guest house itself is centrally located in Aviemore, so that we were able to stroll to all the shops and restaurants, as well as the train and bus station, with ease.
Agatha, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We got delayed in getting to Aviemore before the check in time. The owner was very gracious and set up our room and gave us the code to the door. Breakfast was good but it’s not self service for the fruit, yogurt and juices. You’ll need to find a staff person to get it for you. The location was great for walking and lots of food choices nearby.
Cindi, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Pleasant owner and nice welcome. Lots of noise heard in room 1, from the corridor and nearby rooms. Would have preferred to be able to self serve cereals with a better selection of yogurts and fresh fruit. However, cooked breakfast was excellent.

Perfect place to stay in the Cairngorms

Very friendly & helpful hosts. Great breakfast. I loved the smoked salmon. Great location in town. We were able to walk to dinner at different restaurants each night.
Linda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

B&B style stay

Nice B&B style stay, decently clean with the exception of stains on the rug and sheets. Check in was easy and staff friendly. Breakfast options were included and had nice selection. Staff working breakfast provided barely mediocre and somewhat rude service- seemed annoyed when taking order, food not cooked/delivered as ordered, after finishing food asked if there were to-go cups for my coffee and was advised there was coffee in my room (instant packs and water from the bathroom sink). I then asked if I could just have a bit more in my coffee cup and was told they would have to check to see if there was any coffee made (with many others having just arrived to eat). At that point decided to leave and purchase coffee at a local coffee shop.

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.
Kathryn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Warm welcome from the host Mark who provided us with all the info we needed for our stay. Room was very clean, nicely decorated and had all we needed. Our only issue was that the room was small and there was limited space for our suitcases. Breakfast was spot on! Good quality food served to the table. Good value for money.
Patricia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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!

Absolutely lovely staff so helpful. Huge choice at breakfast served by friendly helpful staff. Food well cooked and presented. Bike repair issue meant we could not leave for home until much later in the day. Offered the use of residents lounge for waiting. Highly recommended.
