"We had a fantastic holiday staying at An Torr, very comfortable accommodation and lots of space for our family."
The kitchen has all the equipment we needed for making meals which was great. The village is a nice short walk away and we had delicious dinners at both of the local hotels .

"This holiday home was lovely and very spacious, we had a fantastic time."
The kitchen is well equipped, plenty of seating for everyone, and lots of space. We loved the location as it was quiet but there was lots to do nearby. Would recommend the cairngorm Alpaca’s and the folk museum. Not far from Aviemore where there is plenty to do. Was lovely to see deer and birds out the back, would have loved to stay for longer and will definitely be back.

"Great property, location close to town, shops, petrol station and pub (Glen Hotel)."
Used as a base for touring and walking. Take a torch if you're walking back from the pub after dark.
Well equipped.
The only critique we had was the two downstairs bedrooms felt cool compared to the rest of the house. The underfloor heating downstairs is preprogrammed. We did have widely changing weather this week going from 26 to 7 degrees. Don't let this put you off, it's a great property in a great part of Scotland.. I am sure the programme can be changed.

Ideal for a large family. Property was super clean and very well-equipped. Plenty of space to dry out waterproofs & walking boots in porch & utility. Newtonmore is a lovely base, we enjoyed exploring the village and searching for the wildcat models. Cafés and good-sized co-op in walking distance. Delicious fish supper from Joe's chip shop in Kingussie, short drive away.

"3 families stayed at An Torr and we loved the spacious house, comfortable beds, huge kitchen and very useful utility room."
It was central to all the places we'd planned to visit - deer feeding, horse riding, Aviemore, Loch Insh, Inverness, zip wiring and Landmark, the 'parallel roads of Laggan' and the Highland Folk Museum in Newtonmore. Didn't have time to swim at the pool in the local hotel. Everyone was catered for. Lovely holiday.

"We loved our stay here, so peaceful with lovely views."
We enjoyed watching the deer and rabbits in the neighbouring field. The house is lovely, spacious comfortable and very well equipped. Ample room for parking several cars.
When travelling to Aviemore it’s well worth travelling on the B9152 rather than the A9 for some beautiful scenery.
The only minor negative for the house is that the windows internally and external need cleaning with a squeegee blade, as they were very smeary and detracted from the views
We would definitely want to visit again.

"6 adults and 5 children spent a fab week at An Torr - plenty of room for us all to do our own thing."
Outside space excellent for kids to enjoy. House was very well equipped with excellent kitchen. House in great location for local amenities and within easy reach of the surrounding places of interest - Newtonmore Highland Folk Museum, Cairngorm Ski Centre, Mountain Railway and Tubing - kids loved it all and staff were so helpful. We all enjoyed a trip on the Strathspey Steam Railway and Afternoon Tea was a treat - staff very welcoming. Would certainly recommend An Torr as a great holiday house. Thank you to the owner for our stay.

There was lots of space and the beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped and very sociable for the cooks. There are loads of walks in the local area. We would love to come and stay again the future - it would be lovely in the winter. Just a few things that could be improved - The blue recycling bin was full upon our arrival so we had to bag our recycling for the week. A second blue bin would solve that issue. The garden furniture was looking a bit tired and the floor sweeper downstairs needed a new head.
We had a great holiday, thank you so much!!

"An Torr is in a fantastic location."
The Glen hotel is easily walkable for a night cap and though the shop is further away it's a flat walk and very pleasant. Loads to do in the local area. We were 2 families with 2, 6 and 7 year old children and they had a ball. Feeding the reindeer was magical and Loch Morlich was so beautiful. On rainy days there are a couple of soft plays within easy driving distance but we were lucky so were outside most of the time. The Balavil hotel has a small indoor swimming pool which was great fun but it does get really busy so go early evening to avoid the hoards! The Highland Folk museum is huge and we went twice, and the Highland Wildlife park was a lovely jaunt too. The Landmark Centre in Carrbrige was a huge hit. Pricey to get in but it really is a whole day affair so that makes it worth the money. The house itself was tremendously well equipped; warm, cosy and really relaxing after a day out. The only downside was the downstairs twin bedroom was noisy if people moving about or having a shower upstairs.
