General Overview
The Highland Basecamp: A Modern Adventure Retreat with Private Sauna & Trail Access
Swap the Catskills or the Green Mountains for the raw, majestic beauty of the Cairngorms National Park. Located in the heart of Aviemore, our modern two-bedroom semi-detached home offers a luxury "Mountain Resort" lifestyle. If your family thrives on fresh air, forest trails, and post-adventure relaxation, you’ve found your perfect exchange.
The "Bothy" Experience: Your Private Wellness Sanctuary
After a day of exploring, retreat to our garden Summer House—styled as a traditional Highland 'Bothy.' Inside, you’ll find our Infrared Sauna, the ultimate way to soothe your muscles. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of local gin while looking out at the crisp Highland sky.
Unrivaled Access: Hundreds of Kilometers of Car-Free Trails
Forget loading the bike rack. From our front door, you have immediate access to National Cycle Route 7. This is your gateway to a world-class network of car-free gravel trails and forest paths that stretch for hundreds of kilometers.
The Family Ride: Take a gentle, scenic pedal through the ancient Caledonian Pine Forests of Glenmore.
The Destination: Cycle to Loch Morlich, where you’ll find the UK’s highest sandy beach. Imagine paddleboarding on a fresh-water loch surrounded by snow-capped peaks and ancient pines.
The Village Link: Ride out to the charming nearby village of Nethy Bridge (the 'Forest Village') for a hidden-gem café stop.
Explore the Ancient Glenmore Forest
You are minutes away from the Glenmore Forest Park, a remnant of the prehistoric forest that once covered Scotland. Wander through towering Scots Pines, spot the UK's only free-ranging Reindeer herd, or catch a glimpse of the rare Red Squirrel. It is a natural playground that feels a world away from the hustle of the US East Coast.
