Excellent place. We stayed in the new appartments. Everything is perfect, cosy, brand new and modern. Perfect kitchen. Couldn't be happier. Worth every penny.

We spent one night at the camp site with our motorhome. The site is spotless and the facilities were all perfect, esp. the motorhome service station at the entrance. Unfortunately, the site is located next to a quite busy street, so you will hear the cars passing by occasionally. Also, the single pitches are quite close to each other, meaning it can feel a bit crowded, esp. when the site is at full capacity.

Location in Aviemore was brilliant. Lovely clean modern apartment. A wee bit on the expensive side though. Plenty things to do and see.
