    Setting was beautiful - in the middle of nature & the mountains, although still within easy reach of amenities & places to visit. We visited the Wildlife park which was amazing even though a lot of the animals were in hiding from the heat! ...

Drumguish Cottage sits in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, within the Cairngorms National Park — the largest and most spectacular in Britain. Nestled among ancient pine woods with sweeping mountain views, the cottage offers a true escape into nature, where red squirrels dart through the trees and deer graze at dawn. Just a short drive away lies the charming town of Kingussie, with its local shops, cafés, and golf course. The lively resort town of Aviemore is also within easy reach, offering winter skiing on Cairngorm Mountain and year-round outdoor adventures. For walkers and cyclists, this is paradise. Trails lead directly from the cottage door, winding through Insh Forest, Glen Feshie, and across the open moorlands beyond. Whether you prefer gentle woodland strolls or high mountain hikes, there’s something for everyone right on your doorstep. Lovingly converted from an old crofter’s home, the cottage combines traditional Highland character with modern comfort. You’ll find central heating, double-glazed windows, and two wood-burning stoves — with a generous supply of logs to keep you cosy after a day outdoors. Inverness and its airport are around an hour’s drive away, and there are rail and bus links via Kingussie. Please note that a car is essential to reach Drumguish itself. Come and enjoy the warmth, comfort, and wild beauty of the Highlands — a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and feel at home.
We’re Fraser and Bridget, and we live with our friendly dog, Waffle, in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland — right next door - in the cottage with the bright red roof. We love to travel, from the snow-capped Alps of Europe to the wild Scottish islands, but there’s nowhere quite like home among the pine trees of Drumguish. The long views and golden sunsets from our sunroom never lose their magic. If you have any questions before or during your stay, please don’t hesitate to get in touch — we’re always happy to help.
