This is a well located and well equipped house. The Mountain Views are really brilliant, with lovely sunrises. No shortage of cleaning equipment and products. House was clean on arrival.

We had an amazing week at the Lookout with our two boys, their Auntie and both sets of grandparents.
We had an amazing week at the Lookout with our two boys, their Auntie and both sets of grandparents. Lots of fantastic memories made. The Lookout is a fantastic house with lots of space. It is a cosy and warm house with great facilities. Really comfortable beds too. Hot tub was fab and games room was great fun for our family tournament. The house was equipped with everything we needed we needed. The only one thing we had to do on arrival was clean the fridge and games room, which wasn't really a big deal in the grand scheme of things. Would definitely recommend this property, especially for family or friends wanting to spend a lovely week in Aviemore.
Absolute brilliant property. We had 8 adults and one child and we found there was so much space in the property. The garden and hot tub were brilliant. Area very quiet and peaceful but only 20 minutes walk from town centre. Would totally recommend to anyone else and will definitely be returning on next big family trip. Thanks all concerned.

The house was very clean and well equipped for all ages.
The house was very clean and well equipped for all ages. The snooker and darts in the garage was a major hit ! The dressing gowns and slippers were an added bonus to get back and forward from the hot tub.The hot tub temperature was low but within a couple of hours of mentioning it the problem was sorted. 10/10! The house was in a lovely spot with a great wee park you can see from the garden. Easy walk into town (15 min if you have wee short legs like me ) . Would highly recommend and have already done so to some of my friends.
