Add a day of fun to your holiday with a visit to Landmark Forest Adventure Park in Carrbridge!
🌲🌲
We were lucky enough to be invited to the park for the day to experience all the attranctions - we hadn’t been in years, so we were pleasantly surprised to see how many activities there are to do there.
🐿️
We squeezed as much as we could into our morning, and came away full of smiles!
We highly recommend:
🌳 Ancient Forest Trail
🐿️ Brand New REd Squirrel Trail
🦕 Dinosaur Kingdom
🦋 The Butterfly House
⭐️ Networkx
💦 Wild Water Coaster

The new Go Rural Maps are out and we are delighted to be featured on them. The Go Rural (Scottish Agritourism) businesses are all based on working farms or crofts throughout Scotland. Some offer accommodation, others have places to eat or buy local produce and some offer experiences such as farm tours and lambing specials.

We are proud to take every opportunity we can to use eco-friendly products in our cleaning regimes. We choose from Dew and The Scottish Fine Soap Company - buying in bulk via wholesale, and refilling containers to cut down on packaging.

"...the midges, the midges, am no gonna kid yees..."
The good news is that the midges start to fade away in the Autumn. The best time to enjoy all those fabulous colours and fresh air without being nibbled on is September and October - with plenty of time to get home again while it's still light.
Our Lochside Cottage is usually sold out well in advance, but we have some last minute availability - it's even available for Christmas!

The squirrels are busy foraging. You'll often see them scurrying about at the start of the day - building up their stores for winter. It's hard to see these speedy wee fellas, but you might just be lucky enough to catch them. They visit the old pines at The Croft most days!
The Croft is a traditional cottage with fantastic character and stunning views over the Cairngorms.

What's the secret to being beautiful? Well, apparently, the answer lies in the dewy grass on the 1st May!
🌱
A Scottish tradition, which has perhaps slipped away in recent years, where people would awaken before sunrise to wash their faces in the morning dew.
🌱
Legend has it that the dew - produced by nature - was seen as a sacred entity and vital to make things grow. So it not only provided an abundance of agricultural growth and offspring but it was deemed to be the holy water of the druids and, therefore, sprinkling it on yourself brought vitality, beauty and good fortune for the rest of the year!
