Strombos

Escape with a group of seven friends or family members to this stunning and spacious home, complete with a warming wood burner and a bubbling private hot tub. Nestled in a pretty village on the slopes of the Cairngorms and with walking and cycling routes winding from the front door, there is plenty to please every guest.

This beautiful stone and brick home has plenty of space for all guests to enjoy spending quality time together, or having some well-deserved rest in this peaceful and tranquil location. The property is designed with soft neutral tones throughout and is bright and airy, creating a homely environment.

Head inside through the front door situated off the village’s Main Street and find yourself in a spacious hall where you can hang up coats and place your walking boots. Down the hallway is a contemporary kitchen which has a large breakfast bar and everything you need to prepare and create culinary delights. Tuck into the tasty meals together, or play games of an evening in the welcoming dining room which has a separate oak dining table with enough seating for all guests. Get cosy in the evenings on the comfortable lounge sofas and warm up in front of the wood burner. There is also a handy utility room on this floor to keep those walking clothes clean and dry.

Upstairs are the four wonderful bedrooms, each of which are light, bright, and super comfortable, providing a perfect place to get some shut-eye at the end of a busy day. Choose from two super-king bedrooms, a single bedroom or a twin room. The twin has a useful en-suite shower room and the other bedrooms share a family bathroom. Also up here is a snug area equipped with a Smart TV, handy for the kids of the group to have somewhere to play.
