Ellon Cottage Reviews

Emma - Oct 2024
We loved this charming cottage, it’s super cosy with stunning views and the hot tub was a bonus!
James - Aug 2024
We really enjoyed our stay at Ellon Cottage. It’s such a cosy, comfy spot with all the amenities you could need. The privacy is greatand the view is lovely. The hot tub was definitely a highlight. We'd happily return again!
Emma - Aug 2024
The scenery from the cottage is stunning, with a clear view of Cairngorm and the valley. Upstairs ceilings are quite low, so mind your head, but the beds are really comfy. It’s cosy overall, though a bit of an update, especially the bathroom, wouldn’t hurt.
Emma - Jul 2024
The location is perfectand the cottage is really cosy with everything we needed. We enjoyed lovely walks around the estate and it definitely lived up to our expectations. Would recommend!
Emma - Jul 2024
We had such a lovely time at Ellon Cottage! The spot is perfectand the wildlife nearby is really something special. Can’t wait to come back!
Emma Clarke - Jun 2024
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage! The location is perfect, with stunning views and a peaceful vibe. The place was spotlessly clean, well-equippedand super comfy. We loved watching the woodcock roosting every night, along with spotting roe deer, siskinsand even a buzzard. The sloping ceilings in the bedrooms took some getting used to, but it was clearly mentioned in the description, so no surprises there. Overall, a fantastic spot to unwind!
Emma Carter - May 2024
Overall, a few minor hiccups, but we really enjoyed our evenings soaking in the hot tub, surrounded by nature’s sounds. Truly memorable. Can’t wait to come back! The setting is absolutely stunning, making it a perfect getaway.
Emma - Apr 2024
We really enjoyed our stay! The location is perfect, with breathtaking views and great walking routes right outside. The decor and antiques added charmand the hot tub was a lovely touch after exploring. The boot room was super handy. Nethy Bridge is also a gem!
Emma - Apr 2024
A cosy little cottage with stunning views, perfect for exploring nearby attractions easily.
James - Mar 2024
This place is lovely for a quick rest, super comfy and friendly after a long walk in the hills.
Emma - Mar 2024
We had such a lovely stay at this cosy little cottage! Even with the weather being a bit gloomy and rainy, it didn’t dampen our spirits. The wood burners in both the kitchen and lounge really made it feel warm and homely - we definitely want to come back. It’s only about 10 minutes to Nethy Bridge, where the local shop and Nethy House café provided everything we needed. The farm shop nearby also has fantastic meat and pies for cooking up a treat. Really enjoyed it!
Emma - Feb 2024
We had a lovely stay! The house was spotless and fully equipped - everything a family could ask for. The hot tub was a real treat, especially on chilly nights under the stars. The location is stunning, perfect for walks and exploring nearby spots. The welcome pack and wood were thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. We’d definitely come back!
Jessica - Feb 2024
We had a fantastic stay here! From the moment we arrived on a chilly afternoon, the cottage felt instantly warm and inviting, no need to light the fire. It’s a charming little place in a stunning spot, with everything we needed and it’s clearly well looked after. The hot tub was a real treat after a day exploring the mountains. We loved the peace and quiet, exactly what we wanted. Plus, nearby towns like Aviemore and Grantown-On-Spey made it perfect for shops. We’ll definitely return!
Emily Carter - Dec 2023
Absolutely loved our stay at Ellon Cottage! The location is just breathtaking, with stunning mountain views right from the hot tub-perfect for winter relaxations. The cottage itself feels really cosy, beautifully decoratedand has everything you could need. The hosts were incredibly helpful, making sure we had all the info and essentials. Only a short drive to Nethy Bridge and the Cairngorms, so plenty to explore. We’re already planning our next visit-can’t wait to return!
Sammy Lee - Dec 2023
We had an amazing time! The little touches, like the cookies and cafetiere, really made it special. The kids loved the sledges too. It’s honestly one of our best holidays and we’re already planning to come back. Thanks a lot!>
Emma Carter - Aug 2023
The views are stunningand the hot tub is lovely-just give it some time to warm up in the afternoon! The place was spotless, with a well-equipped kitchen and a cosy lounge. Underfloor heating in the bathroom was a real treat. The low roof upstairs isn’t a big deal if you don’t mind bending a bit!
Jamie - Jul 2023
Cozy little cottage, perfect escape from daily hustle.
Emma - Apr 2023
Beautiful place with amazing views, super cosyand the hot tub was just perfect for relaxing.
Emma Clarke - Mar 2023
We had a lovely stay here in March 2023, perfect for bird watching. From the patio, we spotted White Tailed Eagles, Ravens, Black Grouse, Redpollsand Goshawks. The location is fantasticand the place itself was cosy, cleanand well-equipped. The low ceilings upstairs took a bit of getting used to, but it wasn’t a big deal. The owners were really laid-back, which we appreciated. A great break!
James - Jun 2022
We stayed at Ellon Cottage and really enjoyed it. The location is peaceful, with beautiful views of the Cairngorms, yet it’s just a short drive to Nethy Bridge. The cottage has loads of character, is nicely decoratedand feels cosy. We loved spotting wildlife - a White-Tailed Eagle soared right overheadand we saw a pair of Golden Eagles in the distance. The walks from the doorstep are greatand we’d definitely come back again. Truly a lovely place to stay!
