Asgard House - Modern, Cosy, Highland House in the Cairngorms National Park
Asgard House was built in September 2020, and is part of an exciting new development located in Grantown-on-Spey. The house is fully equipped, including underfloor heating, WiFi, dishwasher, washer-dryer, fresh linen and towels. A maximum of 1 well behaved dog is welcome.
Please note that the estate the house is situated on is still under development and this is reflected in the price. This means that some house plots are still being built near to the house, and construction workers may be visible during working hours.
Asgard house is ideally situated to access the Malt Whisky Trail and the wonderful Cairngorms National Park. There are golf courses close by in Ballindalloch, Grantown, Carrbridge and Boat of Garten. For walkers, the Speyside Way and the Dava way are on the doorstep and the River Spey offers excellent fishing for anglers. It is a short drive to a wide range of other outdoor pursuits, museums and castles.
Grantown has a nice mix of independent shops, pubs, restaurants and takeaways. A local Co-op store is located on the town square for larger grocery shopping. The town square is a 5 minute walk from the house.
The property has a No-Smoking policy inside the house. The property consists of a driveway for 2 cars. I will arrange to meet guests at the property at a convenient time to hand the keys over. We do ask that dogs are not left unattended at anytime. We would prefer that dogs are not allowed on the sofa or beds.
The nearest airport is located in Inverness, which is located 29 miles away. Cars can be rented from the airport. The nearest train station is Aviemore, which is 14 miles away.
Grantown is accessed via the A95. The A9,which is the main road to Edinburgh or Inverness,is located 9 miles away. Grantown is serviced by regular bus routes connecting to Inverness and the surrounding villages of the Cairngorms.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and an electric kettle.
Note from host: Smoking is permitted in the garden.

Lovely newbuild house
The house was spotlessly clean for our arrival, minimalistic Scandinavian style decor and the most comfortable beds and pillows which are often forgotten about in holiday homes and are so important, we all want a good sleep after a busy day exploring! Kitchen was well equipped (only thing missing was a cheese grater), showers powerful, plenty of storage throughout the house and loved the patio doors out to the garden which were open moat of the time. The only downsides for me were the sofas were not overly comfortable and a fan would have been helpful in the extremely hot weather. Although this is unusual it's becoming more common and the house is so well insulated it retains the heat.
Lots to do in and around Grantown on Spey so this is a great place for a base for many outdoor activities. Would recommend Craggan outdoors just down the road and so many other places to visit.

Excellent!
Beautiful, spacious and immaculately clean property. Kitchen well equipped. The only thing which would be useful is a garden shed. My husband took his mountain bike and had no where to store it when it rained. Other than that, couldn’t fault the property in any way.

House was exactly as advertised, just a short walk from all the local amenities. Check-in was great, with Peter on hand to talk us through the property. While there was building work going on, you honestly would not notice, as the area is really peaceful. Property itself is excellent, with a great layout and everything you could ever need on hand and a small garden of the back to chill in after a day out walking or cycling. All in all could not have asked for better!!

Excellent 5*
Easy communication with owner before arrival. Owner texted during our stay and after. A beautiful 5* home. Home from home. Everything you need for a comfortable holiday. Some property's still being built, this didn't impact at all on our stay. Never really heard builders, was out most days anyway. Great touch that 2 well behaved dogs allowed. Keep up the great work you already do x

Perfect for sightseeing around the North.
Great property to rent. In a housing estate that's still being built but pretty close to the main street and also country walks. 20mins drive from aviemore but at this time aviemore is heaving so this was a far more sensible (and less stressful option). Less than an hour to the sea, to Inverness and an amazing car journey to Ballater. No negatives at all with the property

A great house in a beautiful town close to the River Spey
After four days in Edinburgh, this was just the right contrast program for our last week of vacation. Grantown is very centrally located. All activities: hiking, whisky tasting, sightseeing, ... . On site there is everything necessary for daily needs. Some nice restaurant and bars are within easy walking distance.
The house is very new and the equipment coincides with the ad on booking com.
The owner has written a small manual, a kind of instruction manual. In addition, the contact details of all important facilities are included and, how nice, the menus of the local restaurants. Also very good suggestions for leisure activities are included.
Everything was very clean and well prepared. Dishwasher and washing machine tabs, as well as coffee, tea, and milk were available.
