Guest testimonials for Railway Cottage

“We booked Kim’s place for our parents to celebrate their 60th birthdays. Unfortunately covid meant the trip was delayed but Kim was so accommodating with everything and so helpful with rearranging the stay (a few times). Our parents loved Kim’s place and thoroughly enjoyed their stay in such a beautiful place. Kim had thought of every little detail. Would highly recommend!”

“We spent a lovely 4 nights at Railway cottage, we were extremely lucky with the weather and enjoyed sitting out in the garden looking at the views. Great communication and easy check in and out.”

“The most beautiful cottage in a perfect setting. We had planned to visit The Highland Wildlife Park so looked for accommodation in the area. This could not have been anymore perfect. There was so much more to see and do within the surrounding area, just a walk or short drive away. The Highland Folk Museum is a must visit if you come to the area, and not far from Railway Cottage. The cottage itself was perfect. So comfortable and very much a home from home. It was such a joy to come back from a long day exploring, to start up a fire in the log burner and chill the evening away with family. Our two boys were especially taken by the neighbouring bulls, nicknamed by them, 'Barry', 'Bobby' and 'Billy'. Do not hesitate! Book a stay at Railway Cottage. You won't regret it.”

“Thanks Kim for a wonderful stay. My husband and I were saying that we’ve never stayed anywhere where the whole family were so relaxed. We almost didn’t want to go out!”

“A stunning and cosy cottage surrounded by mountains. What more could you ask for. A perfect place to get away from it all. The cottage is beautifully decorated and designed, well equipped and so relaxing. We had fun trips to the Wildlife park, Rothiemurchus and Aviemore and our daughter loved the neighbouring animals and trains whizzing by. Will definitely be back and recommending to friends and family!”

“Lovely little cottage! Great outdoor space and everything you could possibly need for a wonderful weekend away. Nice walks nearby too!”

“Lovely weekend was spent in the cottage with the log burner keeping us all cosy during the snow we had when there. The cottage is in an excellent state of repair, no draughty windows. Freshly decorated and clean everywhere with lovely furnishings. The trains going by caused great amusement depending on how high any of us would jump! But yes, you do get used to it pretty quickly. The underfloor heating in the bathroom especially was a treat we enjoyed. Kim is a great host. Responds quickly to any questions asked. Thoughtfully, she made sure outside lights were left on to aid our arrival too. All in all a place we would return to in a heartbeat!”

“The Railway Cottage was a beautiful “base” to explore the Cairngorms from (though it was far more than simply a base for us!) It was clean and oh so comfortable and cosy. Evening fires, deep bubble baths and toasty underfloor heating to warm our tootsies made it such a happy and welcoming place to flop; especially after a long day exploring and adventuring in the snow. It had everything we needed and more and the decor was beautiful (our daughter now has her heart set on a pink ceiling at home!) It felt like a gem to find such a wonderful cottage. The trains weren’t an issue for us and our little one was over the Moon when the Tesco train tooted for her as she waited one afternoon! We loved the bulls and sheep and very funny pheasants next door too - so much wildlife to enjoy, especially with the RSPB’s marshes on the other side of the tracks that we could watch from the sofa! Don’t get us started on the view of the mountains - absolutely unreal! Kim was so helpful and communicative throughout our stay, which was hugely appreciated. She was a fantastic host for us. Returning to London with absolute joy and happiest memories tucked away in our hearts. This trip was tonic for our souls and although we’re very sad to leave, I have a sneaky feeling it won’t be long until we’re back! Thank you so much for having us.”
