• "Lovely house and owner."

  A lot of facilities closed nearby from November especially for children. The situation of the house was great if a little noisy. The main shower being downstairs and a little tight wouldn’t have been our preferred option, but the rest of the house made up for it. It was clean, lots of local information, and felt like a skiing/climbing/walking environment. All the essentials and more. Lovely large kitchen and utility. Wonderful owner.

• "The house is very conveniently located for local shops, restaurants and public transport."

  The house was a great size for a family of 6 with plenty of room for all of us. It was great to arrive to a lovely clean and tidy house with helpful "extras" such as dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, toilet rolls etc. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

• "Cottage was ideally located and suited to our party of golfers."

  Everything was clean and a nice big well equipped kitchen. Owners helpful and pleasant to deal with. If there was one issue of criticism it would be of the Sykes Holiday Cottages business method. A week before leaving I was concerned about not being able to have any direct contact with owners (had in the past turned up at a booked cottage and been unable to gain access). The only way of contacting Sykes was by way of text which they responded to some hours later. They were reluctant to provide contact details for owner and best they could do was provide an out of hours number for Sykes. However, some days later they then did send a final email ........... which did contain the owners contact details so all was good. Seemed a strange way of conducting business.

  Thank you for feed back. It's good to know that you enjoyed your holiday in our property. Property Owner

• "Our family had a wonderful stay at Glencanisp."

  Diane and Ian were so helpful and accommodating. The property itself is in an excellent location and is very well equipped, particularly the kitchen. There were so many helpful little touches such as leaving dishwasher tablets and bin bags, not to mention the jar in the kitchen filled with tasty treats! Would highly recommend the property to any family visiting Aviemore. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

• "The cottage was comfortable and spacious for the 8 adults on our trip, with lots of table space for boardgames."

  We really enjoyed being close to some beautiful walks as well as the cafés and shops of Aviemore. The kitchen was well equipped too, so lots of opportunity for cooking and eating together! There's a bus stop right outside the property, which is handy for heading further out of Aviemore for walks, but they aren't very frequent so having a car is preferable for exploring further afield.

• "A great base for a multi-generational family visit to the highlands."

  Kitchen really well equipped, with a fab huge table that easily fitted all 7 of us round. Utility room was PERFECT for drying soggy ski gear: toasty warm boots the next morning! Beds lovely and comfortable, and good showers. Log fires were a bonus treat. The porch and garden room offered nice opportunities for quieter times, too. Only slight issue was the relatively small snug / living room - very cosy if we were all in there, but not always great angles for watching tv. But after a long day skiing, it wasn’t a big deal. Plus the lovely footstool / seat was great for achy legs. House is well located for walking into town for supplies / beers, and great parking. Would have been nice to have used the garden table, but February weather was against us (unsurprisingly).

• "Glencanisp was very well situated."

  It was very convenient for the amenities in Aviemore. It was also very well equipped and comfortable. However, some of the furniture and decorations were a little tired. The driveway was very narrow and difficult to negotiate if you parked at the front of the house.

• "Have just returned from a very enjoyable stay in this lovely house."

  It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable! Fresh flowers in the lounge and kitchen was a lovely touch! Beds very comfortable too! Only slightly negative comment is the seating in the lounge........there were six of us and just enough seating for us but don't think eight adults would manage. We all enjoyed our stay very much, had beautiful weather, and wouldn't hesitate to return to this lovely house.

• "House and location were brilliant."

  Lovely property. The only thing that proved a bit of a problem was the height of the bottom step at the front and back doors. I had my mother and mother in law with us and they struggled getting up the steps. Maybe putting hand rails either side would really make this easier for older guests. Otherwise everything else was faultless.

• "A nice property in a stunning location."

  The owners were super-friendly & helpful, and the cottage was a warm, well-equipped, and comfortable. It was a home-from-home from which it was easy to explore the area. The downstairs shower room was in need of redecoration and seating in the lounge was somewhat limited for the capacity of the house, but we would still happily visit again & would recommend the property to friends and family. To be honest the house was comfortable & perfectly adequate, but it's what's outside the window that you're really there to enjoy... the Cairngorms is an absolutely awesome location (in the truest sense of the word) & Scotland is incomparable in it's beauty...

• "We have recently returned from a weeks holiday in Glencanisp House, Aviemore and can not recommend it highly enough."

  There were six of us staying there and we had a fantastic stay there, although the weather was mixed. The house was spotlessly clean and really well equipped with everything that we could need. It was well positioned for walking into Aviemore and for food shopping which was a five minute walk away. There was plenty of room for all of our cars, vans, bikes and a motorcycle. Our hosts were helpful and easy to contact especially when we had a power cut (which turned out to be a local power Cut). Their instructions were clear and precise from all information on how to get to the house to how to use the heating, cooker, wifi etc. The six of us are hoping to revisit the house again next year for another great holiday.

• "The house is truly excellent."

  It is well-siutated though you have to get used to the noise during the nigth coming from the main road. The bedrooms are very neat with excellent beds. We enjoyed the large, very well-equipped kitchen and the place behind the house to sit and chat. The bathrooms are very good and it is good to have three toilets. A few of us enjoyed the bath-tub!

  My one year old son had a ball, and the facilities exceeded my expectations for him - stair gate, fire guard, toys etc. The house was very clean and really lovely, situated a 5 minute walk from the centre of Aviemore. I would definitely recommend this house, especially if you have children.

  The house is exceptional with everything you could need for a very comfortable holiday. Aviemore has lots to do within a short distance, most notably The Highland Folk Museum and The Highland Wildlife Park, neither should be missed. Myself and family had a great weeks holiday, though a week is not enough to enjoy all this place has to offer, consequently we all hope to return to Glencanisp in the not too distant future.

  Our extended family found a range of contents to suit everyone, with very thoughtful extras ranging from hot water bottles to bath toys for the children. The beds were very comfortable, with high quality bedding, and the two shower rooms plus charming bathroom served the 4 double bedrooms very well. The kitchen was huge and extremely well-equipped. I would highly recommend this accommodation and Sykes Cottages for ease and security of booking, with frequent updates and helpful information.
