Two Queens Houses

We had a wonderful week in 2 Queens Houses, Aviemore. Thé location was perfect for walking and cycling. The views from the house are spectacular, watching the weather changes on the Cairngorms was fascinating. The house itself was very comfortable and very well equipped. Having a hot tub and sauna was a huge bonus, the family loved relaxing there after a day out walking. The house is very spacious with plenty of room to be together or having your own space. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone who loves this part of the country. A very minor disappointment was the furniture in the living room, perhaps it could be replaced with something that could be wiped clean as it seemed to attract dust and fluff. All in all we had a very positive experience and would have no hesitation in returning again. Also the next door neighbours were very friendly.

We booked this house for my Mum's 70th birthday weekend. 10 of us stayed, including 2 children and 2 dogs and we all loved the property. The beds were super comfy, the quality of the furniture and furnishings were luxurious and all the rooms were spotless and clean. Everything was provided and in working order with no issues at all. The hot tub and sauna were a huge hit with everyone and we made good use of these facilities each day. I don't think there is anything I would change apart from the elderly folk found the stairs a bit slippy and thin but they should have brought their slippers! The location is perfect with a short walk to Loch Morlich and also into the hills. We all walked up to the Green Lochan and then enjoyed a soak in the tub after. We also walked along to the Pine Martin for some scran which was awesome. All in all, this is an a fabulous house in a superb location and we have only positive feedback. Loved it. Thank you.

We had a lovely Christmas holiday at Two Queens Houses and were very lucky to have snow falling on Christmas Day followed by a gorgeous and sunny Boxing Day. There are a loads of fantastic walks on your door step including the Loch Morlich Circular and the walk to An Lochan Uaine (Green Loch). The house is very comfortable, tastefully renovated, and with magnificent views from the window especially after snow. There are loads of bathrooms which was great. The walls are a bit thin so you can hear everything between rooms but with a family group it didn't matter. The house is very well equipped - probably better than most holiday homes although there were a few things missing that I would have liked - oven gloves, apron, more tea towels (I took my own). I also really missed having a big soup pot. We were 10 people but there was really nothing to make a big soup in. There's a coffee plunger but no coffee machine however you can get coffee at the delightful Rothiemurchus Cafe near Aviemore. We lost power for about 24 hours due to Storm Gerrit but the wood fire kept us warm. However, it was very dark (no candles and the torch had flat batteries) and we foraged in the Christmas leftovers as there was no way of cooking either. Both sets of neighbours were very nice with one of them coming to check on us during the power outage and offering to make a cup of tea since they were equipped for it. That was nice of them.
