Cedar Cottage Grantown on Spey

Cedar Cottage is on Seafield Avenue in Grantown. It's a bungalow, so everything's on one level. It's detached and you've got your own garden with a picnic bench. The garden's enclosed, so it's fine for a dog.

It sleeps four. Two bedrooms and one bathroom. One double room and one with twin beds - they're a standard single size, not the small ones you sometimes get. It's got a 3 Star rating. It's clean, comfortable, and does the job. The living room has French doors out to the garden.

You're right across the road from a path that goes into the woods and down to the River Spey. The High Street shops, a pub, and a restaurant are about five minutes' walk away. There's parking on the drive.

You're in the Cairngorms National Park here. For skiing and snowboarding in winter, it's about half an hour to the Cairngorm resort or to the Lecht. Aviemore is a 20-minute drive. They've got more shops and places to eat there.

If you're here in summer, the walking and cycling is right on your doorstep. The Speyside Way is nearby. You can get to the coast at Lossiemouth or Findhorn in under 40 minutes. The Malt Whisky Trail is all around this area if that's your thing.

Inside, there's a washing machine, WiFi, and bedding and towels are included. You can bring one dog. There's a shed if you have bikes.
