Spacious pet friendly 5-bedroom farmhouse set in the beautiful Cairngorm Mountains

Large and comfortable farmhouse, it isn't modern by any means but it is warm, comfortable and has a nice feel about it. The shower was really good and plenty of hot water, I also appreciated the traditional features, like the sink in the twin bedroom - great for little ones brushing their teeth before bed and the fire places in the double rooms. It was also great for pets with a large enclosed garden. My children enjoyed the shear size of the property too, perfect for games of hide and seek or treasure hunts.

Lovely comfortable family holiday at Nuide house. Everything provided for and spacious house with all amenities provided

Overall we were very happy with our week at Nuide House. It is not walking distance into Newtonmore but easy access out to the main road for visiting everywhere by car. The furnishings are a little tired but comfortable and I would have liked a bigger kitchen but it worked well for our family. Thank you

Good points: the house was large and in a secluded location. The appliances (cooker, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine were all new and of high quality. So too were the kitchen utensils. The beds were clean and comfortable. Points that could be improved: there was a broken window in the shower room and some of the walls had holes in them. The downstairs toilet did not flush unless you removed the lid from the cistern and manually flushed it. There was a huge cobweb in the en-suite bathroom to Bedroom 1. The towels were frayed and could do with being replaced. Major problem: we had booked the house because it had wi-fi and I knew I needed to do some work whilst I was staying there. When I tried to log on to the network I got an error message. I contacted the owners who advised that the wi-fi had not been working the previous week and the previous guests had moaned about it. I explained that I needed to do work for the Friday which necessitated wi-fi. It was suggested I go to the nearby cafe. With no further contact from the owners and a continuing absence of any wi-fi we had no choice but to return home early; we left on the Thursday instead of the Saturday. I sent a message to the owners at approximately 1445 to advise we had had to leave because of the lack of wi-fi. I received a reply approximately 2 hours later to advise that it had been fixed at approximately 1400.

Nuide House was a wonderful base for our week of hill-walking in May 2023. The house was comfortable and warm and there was plenty of space to relax in the evenings for our group of 8. The beds provided very good sleeping and there was plenty of hot water. The kitchen was functional and met all our needs. There was ample car parking for our 4 cars and a useful outside shed for bike storage. We liked the round table. In terms of hill-walking the house is very well situated with lots of Munros and Corbetts in the surrounding area. Newtonmore has an excellent Co-op which is open long hours every day of the week and also a petrol station apart from other shops and hotels. We ate out one evening at the McInnes Hotel in Kingussie. Very good meal but they had problems getting our drinks right. Overall an excellent week.

Its difficult to recommend the property, as it was quite worn in many places, but offered moderate value for money overall. The cleaning of the property needs improvement, as we had to clean rancid milk from the fridge on arrival, which was pretty unreasonable as a starting point, and bathrooms and ither areas were worn and not particulalrly clean. The towels provided were worn, the bathrooms and fitting were old and somewhat dilapidated in areas. Radiators in some areas of the house didnt function while others overheated some rooms, a leaking window just had a jug under it to catch water, many of the doors had warped and didnt close any more. For the money we paid it was ok, but a little bit of work, some care, some thought about guests, some cleaning etc would all help here.

The house is really big and spacious. The large round table in the diningroom is very nice. The kitchen is well equiped. We liked the fireplace. The house is near the A9, but you don't hear any traffic. It has a good location if you want yo visit Inverness, Urquhart Castle, Loch Ness, Fort Augustus, Fort William, climb the Ben Nevis, take the (Harry Potter!) train to Mallaig, feed alpacas or taste whiskey at Dalwhinnie. The house needs some tlc; fix some broken tiles and give it some paint. There are 4 bathrooms, but only one normal shower. It would be best if one of the bathrooms (prefably the one next to the showerbathroom) is turned into a normal shower. A large (Aldi) supermarket can be found in Aviemore (20 minute drive).

We had a great week at Nuide House, perfect location for exploring and hiking in the Cairngorms. Plenty of space and ideal when travelling with dogs. The exceptional good weather made the trip extra special.

Large and could easily cope with 10 people. Some of the rooms were very impressive, but some of the rooms did look a bit tired. Beds were comfortable and the grounds were great for the kids to keep themselves busy. Very quiet and great views, and an amazing star show on clear night.

Very quiet and relaxing house had everything a family needed. Easy to travel to Aveimore and surrounding areas
