Wonderful cottage

My husband and I stayed her for a few days on our 20th anniversary. It was just what we needed! The property, owner, and communication were perfect. We would definitely stay here again and would definitely recommend.

Lovely property

Really lovely property, fully equipped with all we needed. Slight musty/damp smell in the bedrooms, but lots of air fresheners!! The lounge is delightful with the exposed beams and log burner. Slight confusion over the check out time - VRBO stated 11am but info in the cottage stated 10am.

4-night stay

We loved the general area and the relative ease to get to places of interest in the Cairngorms, Speyside and on the coast. The cottage came as billed. It was relatively comfortable, although the furniture and beds are more serviceable than super comfortable. Not having the drying machine was a drawback. Tomintoul itself is small - few restaurants and only basic supplies at the Post Office. Again, that was billed in the information. Communicating with Alisa was straightforward. In all, the cottage was safe and clean but if you are looking for a spot with more services Tomintoul is probably not for you.
