Our four charming granite holiday cottages are located in Royal Deeside in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park. We provide disabled friendly holiday accommodation with access for all and although this is our main objective, we are happy to welcome guests who do not require these special facilities and are looking for a self-catering base to explore this wonderful part of Scotland.

The Courtyard

Clunie Cottage, Gairn Cottage, Gelder Cottage & Girnock Cottage.

The cottages have been named after four beautiful Scottish Glens close to Crathie.
