“Fabulous!”
+Everything. The most relaxing time we've ever had in a holiday home. The house was cosy welcoming clean and packed with everything you can think of. We only used the lounge once during our stay as we just loved the sun room at the rear of the house overlooking the beautiful garden. We slept like babies in the comfy bed and we dont think weve stayed anywhere that had better towels, so thick & fluffy. Great shower although small it had instant hot water and great water pressure. Best of all there was a place for your shower gels and shampoo, which is rare in a holiday let! The street is just around the corner from the main street and 5 minute walk brings you to the train station. We had a perfect stay and cant wait to take a repeat stay in Carrick House.
−We only booked for 6 nights. We could have stayed another week!

“Great place, comfy and perfect for exploring”
+it was like a Tardis, didn’t look so big from photos or outside but loads of room inside, great space, and had everything we needed and more. Dog friendly house with great enclosed garden. Location was great for local walks and nature reserves, and walks straight from our doorstep. Beds and pillows very comfy . we spent more time in conservatory so enjoyed not using the TV except for a couple of evenings. we can’t wait to visit again as everyone so friendly too

“Home from home.”
+Lovely house with many extras to add to all our enjoyment and comfort whilst feeling at home. Plenty coats hooks and boot trays with a bench to help when getting footwear on and off at the front door. Beds and bedding soooo comfortable and cosy. Heating system (it was late October) simple and effective it meant we never lit the open fire as it was so good. Large living room great for relaxing and socialising with enveloping couches, foot rests, games, local info, books and TV with great reception and access to live tv, iplayer, amazon etc. Kitchen had everything you would expect plus so many extras, including lots of good cutlery and crockery, pots, pans and oven ware, utensils, big freezer, slow cooker etc and on top of that a great selection of provision basics such as herbs and spices, salt, pepper and vinegar, flour, cooking oil, tea, coffee and sugar, lots of cleaning/maintenance items such as dishwasher tablets, washing powder, bin bags etc and to top it all fresh milk and a welcome basket with goodies such as drinking chocolate, oatcakes, shorties, jam, marmalade and porage. We all enjoyed relaxing on the comfy suite in the sun room every morning and evening with its great l
−We liked everything.

“Perfect holiday house in the highlands”
+This is by far the best holiday house I have ever been in. It's coozy, comfy with a lovely little back garden. We ended up in the conservatory most every night just looking at the sky or reading. We travelled in Scotland for two weeks so to be able to do laundry and cook was great for us. Kingussie is also an amazing place in the highlands, we walked around almost all of the local hiking trails. We will be coming back!
−The only downside was that we didn't know that the local Co-op would be closed for renovation (will be until beginning of november 2025). Since we travelled by train we had to take a few bustrips to Aviemore to shop groceries. Would recomend to look around the local shops in Kingussie, the cheese shop, the butcher and the old papershop sell vegetables, milk, coffee, eggs and the likes and the people are very nice and helpful.

“Exceptional”
+Everything was very nice and clean, beds were super comfortable and parking in front of the house was very helpful. We liked most the winter garden, great place for some rest. Owners were really nice and helpful with anything we needed, landlady was also super nice and helpful. Do recommend 100% for your stay, as you have a whole big place for yourself, lots of shops and fitness center very close by, but also no noice from the street or neighborhood. And there are two bathrooms!

“An amazing holiday home and we will recommend to our friends and family”
+This is a beautiful house with plenty of space for the family, it is perfectly located to explore Cairngorms. The welcome basket and cleaning products left for us made it an easier start to the holiday as we didn’t need to pick up everything on our way. The kitchen is very well equipped
−Maybe a second shower, but with teenagers. Although 2 bathrooms was enough
