Plush, luxurious with modern spacious rooms is NOT how you can describe the Star Hotel in Kingussie. However, it is very reasonably priced, the food is good, staff are friendly, and there is entertainment on regularly. Which is why we've visited this hotel regularly and will continue to do so. More

It is one of those 'everyone should do' events but a lot of people wouldn't want to do... More
