Highland jaunt with the Fam…
Loved Cairn Toul! Perfect base camp for all our Highland excursions. Day trips to Thuron, Stirling, Speyside distilleries, St Andrew’s, and Edinburgh. Cooked supper each night in the kitchen. Hostess (Fiona) was attentive and speedy in response to questions. What a treat!

Ideal small property for a break in the Cairngorm National Park
The property was clean, nicely equipped and comfortable. A quiet spot when we were there. We would have liked a casserole dish to cook casserole and dumplings! I bought one from Home Bargains and gave it to our son.

Really enjoyed the peace and quietness and plenty to see around there.
Good Just the cutters need cleaning so that when it rains the water will run down the pipes and not over, but if no one tells the owner this they won’t know to get someone to come clean them. So my stay was great otherwise, would definitely do it again.

Lovely caravan in great location
Straightforward to rent this caravan and the instructions for arrival and finding it were provided promptly and were also easy to follow. Boat of Garten is a lovely place to stay and the caravan park is easy to find and handy for amenities. The caravan itself was spacious enough to fit a travel cot in the main bedroom and the twin room was perfect for our older child. Everything was neat and tidy and the smart TV also good for watching apps (iPlayer, Amazon Prime). A great place to stay for a short break.
