1 review “Central, comfortable and easy to find”
Ideal for us with a small child. close to centre of the village and Tescos. Ate at The Winking Owl (book a table),we were lucky eating early. Tourist information is v helpful. Try out the childrens' play park behind the Macdonalds resort. It is great.
We enjoyed the Cairngorm Mountain Railway and the Highland Wild life Park

1 review “Excellent value.”
I stayed here with my partner and young child.
Very comfortable warm and close to all amenities in the village.
Sometimes when a hotel room isn't big enough this just suits us fine, plenty space for the wee one to run around.
Thank you again

“recommended”
the shelter stone cottage was clean, warm and very comfortable. It was also easy to find and within easy reach of local facilities. the owner , Dorothy kindly allowed us to leave our bags in the cottage on Sunday until we returned from a walk and went for the train in the afternoon.

“Perfect Family Accomodation central to Aviemore Town”
1
person found this review helpful
We loved our stay at the Shelter Stone Bothy. It was very cosy and just the right size for us and our 2 small children. The open plan layout meant we were all together the whole time. We especially loved that it was so central to the main town. We could easily walk everywhere and made regular apres ski trips to the Winking Owl which is next door but one !!!

As I recall 2 people were booked in for 3 nights!! Normally 4pm arrival and 10 am dept. such a pity that you did not contact me whilst you stayed in the cottage and my cleaner or myself would have been to see you straight away....why wait 2 weeks + to complain??...strange you never mentioned that I collected the 2 of you from the bus stop at 2 o'clock and took you along to the cottage with your bags either.
