About this property

Superb Holiday House in the Scottish Highlands

Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac on the outskirts of Newtonmore in the Cairngorm National Park, this recently built 4 bedroom house sleeps 8 people comfortably. Furnished and decorated to a high standard, Ceilidh has 4 bedrooms - 1 double bed and 6 single beds. There is a large L-shaped lounge/diner with TV and a separate sitting room with stereo. The house has one large bathroom and two shower rooms. The kitchen is fully equipped with cooker, microwave, two fridges, dishwasher and washing machine. A 10 minute stroll in one direction leads to the centre of this traditional highland village, with various shops, cafes and pubs, whilst a 10 minute stroll in the other direction takes you to the hills around the village, with stunning scenery.

In Newtonmore itself is the Clan Macpherson museum and the Highland Folk Museum, with its nostalgic recreations of houses and a schoolroom from a bygone era. A few miles away are the Highland Wildlife Park, the Laggan Wolftrak, Loch Ness and the skiing centre at Aviemore. There are plenty of opportunities in the area for walking, skiing, climbing, sailing and sightseeing.

We are happy to accept well-behaved pets, but please note that the garden is not enclosed.

Ein tolles Haus, das alle Anforderungen erfüllt

Als Familiendomizil für 7 Erwachsene war das Haus für uns ideal. Die Schlafräume sind groß und drei Bäder sind vorhanden. Das geräumige Wohnzimmer gab uns die Möglichkeit zum gemütlichen Zusammensitzen. Alles ist sehr gepflegt und in einem neuwertigen, sauberen Zustand. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Dieses Haus können wir zu 100% weiterempfehlen.

Ferienhaus Newtonmore

Hilfreiche Infos vorab vom Gastgeber. Nette Kommunikation! Das Haus ist wie beschrieben, allerdings auch ziemlich hellhörig. Ich kann dieses Haus ohne Bedenken weiter empfehlen!

Perfect base for exploring.

We had a great stay. Very spacious and clean. Only minor point. Is that the place has 2 frying pans and a wok that should be placed as their non stick coating has worn away. Also a Cork screw would be handy the one in the place was broken.

Excellent location for exploring the highlands

With just five of staying here, there was plenty of room and privacy for all. We found a couple of good restaurants, as well as an okay grocery store within walking distance. Best of all, we could drive to many of the highland attractions in just a couple of hours or less.

wonderful house and very good starting point for tours

We enjoyed our stay in this house. Shopping facilities (co-op) and pubs / restaurants are within walking distance. The Highland Folk Museum in Newtonmore is worth a visit. The house is well situated and offers a good starting point for tours to Inverness, Loch Ness and much more. We can absolutely recommend a stay here.

suited us down to the ground

just finished our annual week in scotland this year at Ceilidh. we have been doing this for twenty five years so have had lots of experiences with renting properties , this was one of the best . Well equipt kitchen and every thing worked , WiFi was easy to access. Newtonmore is quite quiet but can recommend eating at the Letterbox restaurant and the pub at the south end of town. Samantha and the locals at the other pub made us very welcome. The wild cat walk is worth a go . good transport to Aviemore or Inverness via train service we had a great week

Great, very well equipped and spacious

We enjoyed our stay in this great house. The house was very clean on arrival and the contact to Mark was easy and reliable. There are lots of things to do in and around Newtonmore (don't miss the Highland Folk Museum if you travel with children). The Co-op is nearby and has everything you need. We can absolutely recommend a stay here.

Good location for exploring the area

Nice house with plenty of indoor space. A few minutes walk from local amenities including pub and co-op. The road it is on is very quiet but the garden is unfenced which could be an issue if you have small children.

Spacious accommodation and light and airy. Didn't have time to use all the amenities such as TV, videos, and extra sitting room maybe next time. Good position for all the things we wanted to do which included visiting relatives living nearby.

Great House

We had a fantastic few days at the house celebrating New Year with friends. Plenty of walking on your doorstep. Mark responded quickly and was very helpful. House was exactly as advertised in fact probably nicer. Newtonmore has a few cafes and bars but also really close to aviemore and all its attractions.

Beautiful house in perfect location

We had a fantastic holiday in this beautiful house which was very well equipped and situated in an ideal location for lots of attractions nearby. The owner has been more than helpful from the day we booked this house. House is very well maintained and very clean. Would certainly recommend this property to others. We had a very nice meal in the Glen Hotel and found the local supermarket adequate for our week. The description of the house is very accurate.

Fabulous Stay at Ceilidh house!!

What a perfect home to base your stay in the highlands. Ceilidh house is in a great and quiet location with off street parking for 3 cars. A 5 minute walk will take you into the centre of Newtonmore (be sure to keep an eye out for the wildcats) and a 20minute drive takes you to Aviemore. Perfect! The house itself is tastefully decorated with lovely big bedrooms and 3 good sized bathrooms. Living room and dining room both comfortably fit 8 adults and the kitchen has everything you would need and expect. The utility room is a perfect store room for bikes (comfortably fits 3 adult sized bikes). All in all the perfect holiday home for an active Aviemore break. We had a fantastic weekend and will definitely be back in the future! Thank you!!!
