Located in the Cairngorms National Park, a stick’s throw from the village of Boat of Garten, this enchanting Scottish hideaway is the perfect setting for a memory-making break with loved ones, including your playful pups.

Wipe muddy boots and paws in the entryway before leading into the cosy lounge, which enjoys plush seating and homely touches. Your pup can take a well-deserved doze beside the wood burner as you relax. The heart of this home-away-from-home is the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which boasts another wood burner, perfect for warming chilly toes and paws. Beyond this is the sauna, where you can soothe weary walking muscles. Four blissful bedrooms provide a haven of tranquillity to retire to. There’s an en-suite super-king-size bedroom on the ground floor, with one staircase leading to a family bedroom with a super-king-size bed and three bunks. A second staircase leads to an en-suite super-king-size bedroom and an en-suite king-size bedroom with picturesque views out towards the Cairngorm Mountains. Outside, little paws can explore the lawn in the enclosed garden whilst you soak in the hot tub or enjoy al fresco drinks around the fire pit. Private parking is available for six cars.

In the heart of the Cairngorms National Park, the village of Boat of Garten is the perfect base to explore the mountains, moorlands, and rivers which make the Scottish Highlands so irresistible. From nearby Aviemore, 6 miles away, reconnect with the great outdoors by joining the Speyside Way or by exploring the glorious walks of the Craigellachie Nature Reserve with your canine companion in tow. Leave no stick unfetched by following the waymarked trails down to Loch Garten and Loch Mallachie, keeping your eyes open for the majestic ospreys and golden eagles that this corner of Scotland is known for.
