An Torr Reviews

A lovely house in a lovely location! We had a fabulous time at An Torr! It was an ideal place for our two families to gather with plenty of space to spread out and all of the facilities we needed. We appreciated that it was warm and cosy when we arrived very late on a snowy night with young children!
Heather
A fabulous holiday house, spacious, comfortable and extremely well equipped. Perfect for our stay with our grown up children and their partners. Highly recommended. If the owners wished to make it even better I would suggest replacing the pillows which were a bit thick and lumpy, turning the thermostats down a degree as it was too hot inside for us thermostats were not controllable and we had to open windows wide to be comfortable, not environmentally friendly, thoroughly cleaning the outdoor furniture and not leaving it outside over winter, and flexing the arrival and departure times 5pm arrival and 9.30 departure were tight, 4pm and 10am would be better.
Excellent holiday home. Spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Separate lounge and dining space makes it easy to have lots of people without feeling crowded. Large well equipped kitchen. Just wish the broadband was faster
Rachel
We had a great week at An Torr! Location was excellent! The house was clean with fresh bedding and towels. The location was amazing for exploring all attractions in the Highlands, its a very good base! A few minutes drive you have local shops and bars. In the next village fantastic Indian restaurant and Chinese take away! We loved it here and would definitely come back
We had a wonderful family holiday in An Tor The house had everything you could possibly need
Excellent clean and spacious property, would hope to come back. Loved watching the wildlife deer, red squirrels and birds. Glad a previous review mentioned a torch for walking back from village at night.
Lovely property. Plenty of space for party of 10.
Great sized house, very clean and comfortable and really close to some amazing Munro climbing territory. Newtonmore had everything you needed and more, the highland games were a fantastic addition to our stay! The house was very well equipped, the only addition required is a hair dryer!! A first world issue I know. I would happily revisit this property.
Jennifer
We had a wonderful stay in An Torr! The house was beautiful, very clean, and spacious enough for all the family. The owners were very helpful too. We loved our week and really hope to return again soon!
Isabelle
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 .
Stephanie
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 Alpacas 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.
Rachael
House was exceptional, the standard of the accommodation was brilliant. It was lovely to be in a house where that is the case and where the photographs actually match the house that you turn up to!
Elizabeth
We have just returned from a very pleasant holiday staying at An Torr. The house is very well furnished and the kitchen is very well equipped. The location is nice and private, but well situated for a lot of places that are worth a visit. We would happily recommend the property to others.
Luke Oliver
Fabulous property, exactly as described, only better.
Katherine
Very spacious accommodation with views to open country. Ideal for a large family. Property was super clean and very wellequipped. 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. Cafs and goodsized coop in walking distance. Delicious fish supper from Joe's chip shop in Kingussie, short drive away.
The house was very large and cosy very well equipped, underfloor heating kept the house nice and warm. Village was a few minutes walk away with nice pub and coop store. Would thoroughly recommend it
9 of us had a brilliant stay for 3 nights due to a 70th birthday and all of us were very impressed by An Torr. We loved the house itself and the location. An Torr was deceptively spacious and was well equipped for every day living.
Ursula
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.
Mohanraja
Property location was great giving easy access to many activities. Easy to get into with ample parking. In general property was well maintained apart from some appliances,BBQs, irons, boards and dinning table quiet sticky nice place to spend time with family.
Very central location for access to a number of facilities between Carrbridge and Newtonmore, so plenty to do and see, for all the family. The house itself was very spacious, more than the advertising photos would suggest.
We had a lovely stay in An Torr. The house is amazing. Beautiful setting with a big sunny garden. The kitchen had everything you would need to cook and bake. Newtonmore itself is a great base and we did lots of walking. And no midges. I would definitely stay there again.
Deborah
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 its 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. Margaret.
This is a great location and house for larger groups and I think it will become our default choice for our annual trips now. It is well equipped, warm and comfy. Great to have access to a garage to store bikes and skis, and a drying room for after rainy days. The piano could do with a tune though!
Gillian
An Torr is a beautiful house! Extremely clean and well appointed with everything you need to have a great stay. The beds are super comfy! We had a wonderful week and would definitely recommend this gorgeous house to everyone. Hope to return sometime!
Deirdre
The property was extremely comfortable, very cosy with a good heating system and loads of hot water available for baths. It was well equipped with crockery and cutlery, loads of storage in the kitchen and around the house. A brilliant big washing machine made dealing with the children's clothes, an easy task. Great garden space for the kids to play outside. The owners were also very helpful and flexible.
Gillian
We had a great week, suited our party really well as it was ideal for families. The only problem was we found a 9.30am check out very tight, even 10am would have been easier.
This was a very comfortable and roomy cottage that filled our groups needs perfectly. The kitchen was well equipped and everything easy to use. We would definitely use it again
Nicola
An Torr is a fantastic house with lots of room for the eleven of us which were staying at it. It is very clean. Beds are very comfy and bedding and ample towels are provided. It is in a fantastic location and it has a big garden and drive. The Wildcat Experience is a great activity to do around Newtonmore for both kids and adults! The Folk Museum is well worth a visit too. Would definitely return to An Torr!
Very happy with house contents and general facilities. Good garden grounds in quiet country surroundings and great views. Only complaint was that there were no games, dvd or books as advertised.
Stayed here with 8 friends on a walking holiday and it was absolutely perfect. A beautiful property situated in an equally beautiful area. Really well equipped with anything and everything you could need and close to loads of amenities, landmarks and adventure! The owner of the property is superb. Had a few questions and he was more than happy to help out. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for accommodation in the area.
A very well equiped home, very suitable for our needs. We had very good weather and did a lot of hiking in the superb surroundings. Both house and area are very much recommended.
Gerald
Lovely property with good facilities. We really enjoyed our stay.
An Torr is an excellent holiday home. It is really spacious and very well equipped. The rooms are all extremely large and very comfortable. The house was absolutely spotless and despite the removal of some soft furnishings, this did not detract from overall comfort of the accommodation. The gardens were extensive and well maintained. Couldnt fault the house in any way and would recommend a stay here.
Christine
Cotrage was absolutely beautiful couldn't fault it . The area is gorgeous as well lots to do and it helped that we had lovely weather. Would highly recommend. Just a heads up though there's no hair dryer so just pack your own
A spacious, clean property in an excellent location for village and mountain access. Beds very comfortable and good dining and relaxing areas. Kitchen had lots of crockery and utensils but many mugs and glasses very old. BBQ was not clean and garden furniture old and dirty on arrival. Garden scruffy and in need of attention.
Superb property for a family holiday. We'll equipped and spacious
Debbie
