Our host was very welcoming and the accommodations were spacious. The bedding and towels were luxurious and the kitchen was well appointed. The wood burning stove was a delight that we took advantage of each night. The view of the nearby castle was a delightful surprise. It would be helpful to provide additional signage from the main road directing us. We would happily recommend this cottage to anyone who visits Speyside.
