LOCATION
Top Cottage sits in a stunning upland setting about
5 miles from the picturesque village of Grantownon-Spey in the Cairngorms National Park. The Park
is famous for its beautiful and varied countryside
with dramatic scenery and abundance of wildlife.
This unspoilt landscape provides a wide range
of leisure and sporting opportunities including
salmon fishing on the world famous River Spey,
skiing at the Cairngorms range near Aviemore,
mountain biking on the highly acclaimed Glenlivet
trails, pony trekking and hill walking. There are
many highly regarded golf courses in the area
including the highly regarded Grantown-on-Spey
golf club. Speyside is the home of malt whisky
and this area forms part of the world famous
‘Whisky Trail’ with many distilleries with visitors’
centres close by.
The Cairngorms National Park is also a great place
for wildlife watching and many iconic species such
as the red squirrel, pine marten and golden eagle
can be spotted at Top Cottage. Nearby the RSPB
Loch Garten Reserve by Abernethy provides a
fantastic opportunity to see rare ospreys nesting
and the elusive capercaillie.
Many delightful
walks can also be enjoyed directly from Top
Cottage.

independent shops, hotels, supermarket, Doctors,
primary and secondary schooling. Aviemore
(about 19 miles) also has an excellent range of

on the main Kings Cross line and conference

DESCRIPTION
Top Cottage is a charming traditional cottage built
from stone under a pitched slate roof and offers
well appointed accommodation over one and a
half storeys. Sitting in an elevated position and
surrounded by woodland to the east, a trickling
burn to the south and open moor land to the west
and north, this property enjoys views from every
aspect. The cottage is currently being used as a
holiday cottage but it could be used as a family
home or as a second home.
From the garden a path leads to the front door
and into the entrance vestibule and through to the
hall. Doors lead from here into the sitting room
which with its large windows enjoys breathtaking
views towards the peaks of the Cairngorms. The
open fire ensures that this room offers a cosy
atmosphere throughout the year. The kitchen /
dining room, also off the hall, has half height timber
lined walls, large open fire and wall and floor units
and leads to the scullery. There is also a family
bathroom on the ground floor. On the first floor
there are two double bedrooms and generous
storage in the built in cupboards on the landing.
Outside the enclosed garden is mostly laid to
lawn and includes several mature conifer and
broadleaf trees. A shed is attached to the rear of
the property provides useful storage / workshop
space.
