“Absolutely beautiful property.”

Fantastic location, peaceful surroundings. Hosts Sharon and Kevin were such lovely friendly people too. Would recommend this property to friends and family.

- Janet, July 2026

Thank up for your kind words, with regards both Torbreck Chalet and our hosting abilities. To be honest, the latter is made so much easier when we have such lovely friendly guests! Property Owner

David June 2026

“A lovely chalet in a great spot for watching wildlife, and loads of walking from the doorstep.”

Chalet was very clean and comfortable and would highley recomend.

- David, June 2026

thank you for taking the time to review Torbreck Chalet. We're glad you found it to your liking, and enjoyed the acces to wildlife, both on the local trails and right on the doorstep. Property Owner

Harry May 2026

“We managed to snag a last-minute slot due to a cancellation (a massive win since they’re mainly booked until 2027) and lucked out with a week of amazing weather.”

The chalet is perfectly set up for an active holiday. We could access fantastic walking and bike trails straight from the front door, and the secure bike storage was a great feature. It’s incredibly dog-friendly too, offering excellent walks nearby and plenty of thoughtful dog items left for us in the chalet. Just a standard summer warning for Scotland: there are plenty of ticks around during the season, so come prepared. Couldn't recommend this place or the seamless Sykes booking experience enough.

- Harry, May 2026

We're glad that you found the chalet, and the locality so well suited to your needs, Harry. Although we can't take credit for the lovely weather! The host of paths and tracks literally on our doorstep are definitely popular with our more active guests, but hopefully you also found time to just relax and take in the scenery along the way. :-) Property Owner

Martin May 2026

“What a super place to stay, the accomadation is fitted and finished to a high standard, equipped with everything you need for your stay.”

Kevin and Sharon (the owners) could not of been more helpful. The location is so peacful and quiet with lots wildlife, which can be seen from the windows, Red Squirrels, Deer, Woodpeckers, we even heard a Tawny Owl hooting during the night. also such a variety of garden birds constantly visiting the feeders. We certianly would recommend this holiday chalet for a stay. 10 out of 10 Top Marks from us.

- Martin, May 2026

Thank you for the glowing review of Torbreck Chalet, Martin. We're so pleased you both enjoyed your stay, and found the chalet and the surrounding area so we'll suited to your animal watching.(And that you got to see a Pine Martin on your final evening with us!). We hope to see you again in the future, with the aim of knocking a few more animals off your list. Coming at a different time of year can reward you with other animals, such as; wildcats, red deer, barn owls, bats, beavers, golden eagles, pine hoverflies, oh, and midges! I could go on, but I'm sure you get the drift. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Alan April 2026

“The chalet is located in a lovely forested area with abundant wildlife all around.”

The owners kindly place nuts and treats around the chalet which pine Martin, red squirrels and numerous birds are happy to feed on. The property is full of useful utensils and thoughtful touches throughout that make your visit convenient and interesting. There are plenty of walks and cycle tracks in the immediate vicinity. If you enjoy peace and quiet, beautiful surroundings and homely touches Torbrek chalet is for you. Thank you to Kevin & Sharon who were great hosts throughout our 10 day stay.

- Alan, April 2026

Delighted to hear that the Chalet, the Location AND the Wildlife all lived up, or surpassed, your expectations. Regrettably, we can only take credit for the former, but recognise that most of the praise has to go to Nature's efforts on our behalf! Thank you for you thoughtful and positive review. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Robert March 2026

“This was our perfect escape chalet: off the beaten track, wildlife in abundance.”

all the facilities we needed, heating worked perfectly, the shower/bath was good. This place, to us, was ideal and would come back again and again. At night, total darkness and silence. The owners who live next door were lovely and helpful

- Robert, March 2026

Thank you for your positive feedback with regards your stay at Torbreck Chalet. Good to hear you enjoyed yourselves and found the chalet ao well suited to your needs. We look forward to seeing you again in the future. Property Owner

Excellent accommodation, very friendly and welcoming hosts, lots of wildlife to see including the red squirrels, would definitely visit again

- Michael, February 2026

Thank you for your positive review of Torbreck Chalet. We're happy that it met your hopes and expectations (And that the local wildlife lived up to their end of the bargain too). Property Owner

Paul January 2026

“Stayed here for our final week, after touring Scotland for a month back in January.”

This was our favourite of the 4 accommodations we stayed at. This was a true back to nature getaway located deep in a forest. Great for watching wildlife. The excellent hosts are on hand next door should you need them, giving us great advice on what to do and where to go. Special mention to their very friendly dog. If you love peace and quiet surrounded by nature and views, this is totally recommended.

- Paul, January 2026

Lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your stay at Torbreck Chalet; but we won't pass on the nice words about Alfie the Chocolate Lab, as such things tend to go to his head! :-) We look forward to seeing you again if you are holidaying this way in the future. Property Owner

Sue January 2026

“What an amazing place.”

The Chalet is in the most beautiful place, in the forest, but not far from amenities. Lovely walks close by. The owners Kevin & Sharon were always pleasant and Kevin was especially knowledgeable about the area, and guided us to some amazing walks along the locks. The Chalet was immaculate, had everything you needed and more. Some nice little touches on arrival, a welcome array of drinks & gorgeous biscuits, even treats for our two pooches. The wildlife was stunning, we had Red Squirrels every morning, wild birds, even a woodpecker on several of our days there. The property exceeded our expectations, and this is due to the care & detail that the owners have put into making this the perfect getaway. We cannot wait to return, subject to finding a vacant week. I can understand why this chalet is fully booked for the near future and beyond. Thank you for making our stay magical. I know I didn't want to leave. Say Hi to "Alfie". He is just the most adorable pet of the owners

- Sue, January 2026

We are super pleased that you found Torbreck Chalet to your liking, and appreciated the little touches we add to try to make it feel a tab above the rest. It was a pleasure to have you stay with us and we certainly hope to see you again. Property Owner

“Excellent”

- Huw, November 2025

Thank you for your 5-star rating of Torbreck Chalet, Huw. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and that the Chalet lived up to your hopes and expectations. Property Owner

Christine November 2025

“Just what we were looking for…what a location amongst the trees, quiet and relaxing.”

The chalet was warm and snug. Very well appointed…our dogs were made most welcome by the friendly owners! So much to do in the surrounding area..beautiful walks and bikes rides. Owner has lots of feeders so we were privileged to watch red squirrels and birds feeding throughout the week. Highly recommended…we would certainly return!

- Christine, November 2025

It's great to hear that you found Torbreck Chalet so suitable for your needs, Christine; and we are most grateful for your 5-star review. It's also nice to know the dogs enjoyed themselves too! We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

Melanie August 2025

“A delightful and peaceful spot in the forest with walks from the door and plenty more within a short drive.”

It can be hard to drag yourself away from the comfort within and the entertainment provided by the abundant visiting wildlife. An ideal place for a little R&R

- Melanie, August 2025

Thank you for your delightful review of Torbreck Chalet. We are so pleased that you enjoyed the added comfort-touches provided in the chalet, although we can't honestly take much credit for the wildlife displays. We look forward to welcoming you back next time you need a break from the hectic requirements of the daily drag. Property Owner

Vanessa July 2025

“We had a lovely stay at Torbreck the owners were so friendly and helpful.”

A beautiful staycation so relaxing with the Forest so near and the beautiful wildlife to see and watch at all times. The Red squirrels were our favourite. So many places to visit around the area. A wonderful holiday we certainly intend to return in the very near future. Thank you Kevin and Sharon for a lovely stay at your super welcoming Chalet. Vanessa

- Vanessa, July 2025

Thank you for your positive review of Torbreck Chalet, Vanessa. We're so pleased to hear we met all your expectations, and also that our resident Red Squirrels performed their antics to your satisfaction. We'll pass on your comments to them, as long as it doesn't go to their heads! We look forward to welcoming you back in the ear future. Kevin and Sharon. Property Owner

Sue June 2025

“Absolutely wonderful.”

Very peaceful rural location with fabulous wildlife all around. I was enchanted by visits from the red squirrels & even a pine marten on the feeders in broad daylight. There were lots of walks from the door, including the mystical Uath lochans; also convenient for Loch Insch, Rothiemurchus, Glenmore & Abernethy forests & moountains. The chalet was spotless, comfortable & well appointed. The owners have taken great trouble to provide everything you might need & are very hospitable without being intrusive. Hope I can visit again soon.

- Sue, June 2025

Thank you for your lovely review of Torbreck Chalet, Sue. It was a pleasure to have you stay, And special thanks for sharing some of your extensive botany knowledge highlighting some of the rarer plants we have growing wild in the grounds and in the wider local area. Most informative. Property Owner

John June 2025

“Fantastic week’s stay at this very comfortable chalet in the woods.”

We were made to feel at home and the owners, Sharon and Kevin, went out of their way to accommodate us and our nervous dog. There’s great woodland walks on the doorstep with wonderful views that should not be missed. A short walk leads to a few lochans which are beautiful. Relaxation is easy as the chalet is comfortable, clean and fresh, and well appointed with a TV, books, jig saws and games. The veranda has easy chairs to sit and admire the lovely garden surrounded by woodland views and wildlife, or just read a book with a cuppa. Our only disappointment was that we hadn’t booked to stay longer, however I’m sure we’ll be back. Overall, brilliant.

- John, June 2025

Thanks for your lovely review of Torbreck Chalet, John. We're so glad that all 3 of you enjoyed your stay and the facilities the chalet has to offer. We look forward to seeing you again in the not too distant future. Property Owner

Amy April 2025

“We absolutely loved our stay.”

We love the outdoors so the woodland location was perfect for us and our dog. The chalet felt very homely and had everything we needed. We loved watching the birds and the squirrels. The hosts were lovely and helpful. There is lots to do and see in the area, we loved being able to get out for a trail run/walk straight from the door, so many lovely trails. We will definitely be trying to get back in the future.

- Amy, April 2025

Glad you had a good time at Torbreck Chalet, Amy. Disappointed you didn't feel able to give us 5 stars across the board. We'll try to do better, to earn maximum stars, for your next visit. Property Owner

Dione April 2025

“We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Torbreck Chalet.”

Warm and comfortable in a peaceful setting with everything we needed and amazing walks from the door. Owners were friendly, helpful and accommodating.

- Dione, April 2025

Thank you for your review on Torbreck Chalet, Dione. We're very pleased you had a good holiday with us, but If you could let us know what we can do to improve the comfort level; we’d like to try to get full marks for your next visit Property Owner

Terence March 2025

“Torbreck Chalet, set in beautiful woodland is an idyllic, relaxing place to stay.”

We've stayed in a few places over the last couple of years which have proved to be disappointing in one way or another, but Torbreck Chalet was definitely the exception. Very clean, cosy and warm. All appliances worked, and there was plenty of piping hot water for showering. Kevin and Sharon are very friendly hosts. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again in the future.

- Terence, March 2025

Thank you for your wonderful review of Torbreck Chalet, guys. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to seeing you again. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Charles January 2025

“It was a fantastic stay and the location was perfect with beautiful nature surroundings and walks.”

The chalet was very well equipped with everything we needed whether we wanted to stay in or go out. Kevin the landlord was very hospitable and ensured we were comfortable and that we had everything we needed. The chalet had a huge amount of information about the area, things to do, maps and many, many more. No need for a Visitors Centre!! Thanks Kevin & Sharon.... we will be back.

- Charles, January 2025

Thank you for your review Charles. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and found everything you needed in the Chalet. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

Andrew January 2025

“A winter wonderland.”

The chalet is situated in private woodlands, and is a delight to stay in: warm, cosy, quiet and very well equipped. The owner goes to great pains to ensure your stay is as pleasant as possible, including topping up the bird feeders that directly outside the kitchen everyday - we saw so many different types of birds, together with red squirrels and pine Martens. Walks direct from the Chalet are a joy for people who love woodland walks and quiet lochans, and the Insh Activity Centre is just down the road where they serve an amazing Sunday Roast. A real gem of a place to stay.

- Andrew, January 2025

We're glad you had a great time at Torbreck Chalet, despite the spanners that the Scottish weather tried to throw into the works. Also pleased that the Birds, Squirrels and Pine Martins did there bit by putting on a good display for you. Kevin and Sharon Property Owner

Colin January 2025

“We really enjoyed our stay at Torbreck Chalet.”

The Chalet was clean, tastefully decorated and well equipped with everything we needed. It was clear there had been a lot of thought gone into making guests feel welcome and even including dog treats, so our dog wasn’t left out. The accommodation is in a peaceful woodland location with direct access to amazing woodland walks. Overall we had a nice relaxing stay and would highly recommend Torbrek Chalet.

- Colin, January 2025

Thank you for your positive review of Torbreck Chalet. We're glad you enjoyed your New Year break in the snow and look forward to seeing you again. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Wayne December 2024

“Brilliant hosts, beautiful cottage, beautiful surroundings.”

Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts

- Wayne, December 2024

Glad we were able to make Christmas enjoyable, and that you found the chalet well suited to your needs. We hope to welcome you back for a longer stay in the future. Property Owner

Karen November 2024

“Thank you for a brilliant stay.”

The chalet has everything you need and set in a stunning off beat location. Easy access to fantastic walks and lochs, with the added bonus of fantastic wildlife. Would definitely recommend this property and if we return to the area would not hesitate to book. Thanks again for a wonderful week.

- Karen, November 2024

Glad you enjoyed your week at Torbreck Chalet, and got to enjoy so much of our scenary and wildlife. We hope you'll make it back sometime to take in all the bits you didn't get time to see. Property Owner

Wendy November 2024

“Well where do I begin.”

We had a week at the chalet and we can only describe it as absolute bliss. The location is absolutely perfect if you love peace and quiet. A location near enough to access Aviemore and all the other fabulous places nearby but nicely tucked away. The chalet itself has everything you could ask for and we were toasty warm in there. We were lucky to have alot of snow which made it feel as though we had stepped into Narnia. I only hope that many other people get to experience this little piece of heaven and we have already booked for next year. Also thanks to Kevin the owner who helped us get our car up the lane when the snow came. All good fun. Oh and not to forget the handsome Alfie who our dog Ned was always on the lookout for. Can't wait to return x

- Wendy, November 2024

Thank you for your glowing review of Torbreck Chalet, Wendy. We can't promise there will always be snow in mid-November, but we're glad you enjoyed it whilst it was here. I suspect many more of our guests over the next three months will get a chance to 'appreciate' a good few inches of snow, before our spring flowers get a chance to show off their glory. We look forward to welcoming you back in 2025. Kevin & Sharon. Property Owner

Marc November 2024

“A beautiful chalet, in a stunningly awe-inspiring location - we could not have wished for a better place to celebrate our 20th Anniversary.”

Kevin and Sharon, our hosts, were fantastic! Friendly and helpful - Kevin was very patient with me, when we arrived in the dark and I needed directions - I called and he was only to happy to assist - especially as I called a second time! Wonderful facilities, amazing hosts - and breath-taking scenery. The perfect location.

- Marc, November 2024

Your generous comments on us, and Torbreck Chalet, are received with Thanks Marc. We hope to see you again in the not too distant future. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Ian November 2024

“Apart from initial problem finding in the dark the whole experience was absolutely excellent.”

Only disappointed was we were a few days too early for the snow ❄️

- Ian, November 2024

Our apologies for not being able to lay on snow for your stay, Ian. We'll try to do better for your return visit - as long as you don't books a summer break here! Glad that everything else met your needs and expectations. Property Owner

Sharon October 2024

“Stayed end of Oct 2024.”

A warm welcome when arrived late. Kevin was always on hand if needed. Great seeing red squirrels playing right outside the kitchen window, numerous birds and deer. Ideally positioned for walks from the cottage without the car. Cottage was very well insulated and hardly any need for heating. If you want a comfortable cottage for two and a dog, near wildlife and silence, you cannot go wrong.

- Sharon, October 2024

Thanks for taking the time to review your stay at Torbreck Chalet . We're glad it met your requirements so well, and you got to see so much of the local wildlife. We hope we'll be able to welcome you back in the near future. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Mark October 2024

“The property was brilliant and we enjoyed our stay.”

The location is excellent and with so many trails and wildlife on your doorstep it’s a dream. Red squirrels from the kitchen window and badgers from the back door what more could you ask for?! Parking is adequate and close by. Good outdoor lighting all around the property. Friendly owners who helped whenever they could. Very well equipped property - we took a few bits incase it wasn’t but we didn’t need to. Lovely and peaceful and picturesque. We really cannot think of anything to feedback to make it better! Keep up the good work! So glad we found this place and we want to return next year! Thanks

- Mark, October 2024

Thank you for your comments on your stay at Torbreck Chalet, Mark. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay, and are truly humbled by your lovely review. We look forward to a return visit next year. Property Owner

Yvonne October 2024

“This lodge was probably the best equipped property we have stayed in.”

Beautiful position, ideal for relaxing and walking in the forest. We enjoyed all the birds on the feeders and the antics of the red squirrels kept us amused. It is in a good position for exploring the area with the added bonus of the welcoming owners. We had to leave early due to medical reasons but we will certainly return in the near future. Highly recommended.

- Yvonne, October 2024

Thank you for the excellent review. We're so pleased you enjoyed your time here, Sorry to hear your health issues didn't improve, but hope you are now feeling better. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future. Property Owner

Alan September 2024

“Had a wonderful,relaxing stay at Torbreck and if you love peace ,tranquility , amazing scenery and walking then this is the place for you .”

The chalet is warm and inviting with everything you need provided. I would definitely recommend and hope to return one day .

- Alan, September 2024

Thanks for your glowing recommendation, Alan and Sandra. We are humbled by your praise and glad that you enjoyed your week at Torbreck Chalet. We look forward to your return, to get a few more Cairngorm hikes ticked off your to-do list. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Debra July 2024

“Torbreck Chalet provided an excellent base to explore the surrounding area.”

The location is perfect for those seeking tranquility and the surrounding forests were brilliant for exploring with our dog with not a soul around. We loved watching the wildlife from the chalet windows! The chalet has everything we needed and Kevin went over and above to advise on places to visit and was very welcoming. We hope to return soon

- Debra, July 2024

We're delighted to know that the location of Torbreck Chalet was so well suited for your holiday activities, and met your four-legged needs as well. We look forward to your return visit. Property Owner

Frederick June 2024

“A lovely place that we thoroughly enjoyed.”

The wildlife was understated in the 'brochure' and was so good that we never even found the 'on switch' for the TV. Bird lovers will enjoy the feeders and the Squirrels and Pine Martens are exciting to watch. We shall return for more I am sure.

- Frederick, June 2024

We're so pleased that our local wildlife lived up to its billing - it isn't always quite so forthcoming! We look forward to putting on a sequel in the near future. Property Owner

Marie May 2024

“Lovely place to stay and chill out.”

Wildlife amazing and owners and dog extremely friendly. Highly recommend.

- Marie, May 2024

We're glad you enjoyed your stay Marie, and very much appreciate your praise of Torbreck Chalet. Usually Alfie, our dog, gets higher praise than we do; so its good to see us achieving an even ranking :-) Your recommendation is much appreciated. Property Owner

Amanda April 2024

“A fantastic two person cottage, well appointed, and lovely and warm.”

The wildlife around the cottage was amazing we loved watching the red squirrel enjoy their breakfast every day and the woodpecker taking ownership of the bird feeder.

- Amanda, April 2024

Thank you for your review. We're glad you enjoyed your stay, and found both the chalet and our local wildlife so enjoyable. I regret, we have yet to teach the woodpeckers how to share! :-) Kevin and Sharon Property Owner

Sue March 2024

“A wonderful haven of tranquility & wildlife in the forest.”

It restores the soul. There are wonderful walks from the door- Uath lochans are close by with amazing wildlife & scenery. I was entranced by the reflection of falling snow on the mirror calm lochan. Red squirrels visit daily, roe deer seen & many birds on the feeders were a source of delight. The owners have gone to alot of trouble to make you feel welcome & comfortable in the property. Spotlessly clean & well maintained. I struggled to park my hire car in the parking bay but Kevin suggested an alternative to spare my blushes!

- Sue, March 2024

Thank you for your lovely comments. We're so glad you enjoyed your time with us, and were able to see so much wildlife and get to enjoy some of our local walks. Not all of our guests get to see the snow falling on the Lochans; but, to be honest, they look lovely in any weather! As for the car parking - one of the benefits of not having close neighbours is no-one to complain over where cars are parked. :-) We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kevin & Sharon. Property Owner

Elizabeth March 2024

“Had a fantastic stay.”

Chalet was spoitless and had everything you need. The area was full of amazing walks and wildlife. The owner was very attentive but left us alone too. Had an amazing stay and definitely would go back next year.

- Elizabeth, March 2024

Glad to hear you enjoyed to brief stay at Torbreck Chalet, and that it lived up to your hopes and expectations. Thank you for your kind review. We look forward to welcoming you back next year. Property Owner

Paul February 2024

“We had a wonderful time staying at Torbreck chalet,we were greeted by Kevin,extremely welcoming & gave us an insite of the area.”

We were amazed that the wildlife was on your doorstep just beautiful, the Red Squirrel came everyday we were there, amongst other birds it was so peaceful. We would highly recommend Torbreck as we would definitely be back next year. Thankyou again Keven & Sharon for your warm friendly attitude we had an amazing time.

- Paul, February 2024

Delighted to hear that you had such a good time at Torbreck Chalet, and that atleast one of our local squirrels joined you regularly for breakfast. We look forward to welcoming you back next year. Kevin and Sharon Property Owner

Lesley February 2024

“We really loved our stay at Torbreck Chalet.”

The situation was wonderful. Quiet and peaceful with wildlife as company. Red squirrels, many visiting birds and on one occassion a pine martin. Tha chalet as comfortable and well appointed. The owners Kevin and Sharon who live nearby are so helpful and welcoming but leave you to yourselves. We would love to return. A very special holiday. Thank you.

- Lesley, February 2024

Not everyone gets to see one of our visiting Pine Martins. Full marks for your persistence. And glad you enjoyed the rest of the wildlife as well as the chalet. We look forward to a future return visit. Sharon & Kevin Property Owner

Helen January 2024

“Such a restful holiday.”

We enjoyed watching the red squirrels from the kitchen window in the mornings. The cottage was perfect - lovely and cosy. Thank you!

- Helen, January 2024

We're glad you found what you were looking for in our little rural retreat. As for the squirrels - we think they just like having an audience! Come back soon. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Mark December 2023

“Absolutely faultless in every way.”

The care and attention put in by owner is second to none. Just one irritation; didn't see aurora : my bad timing so I'll be back next winter.

- Mark, December 2023

Thanks for the feedback guys. As for the aurora, we think you are asking too much. After all, we arranged for snow on Christmas day, a clear blue sky boxing day, a couple of crisps morning frost, and a sample of 'what could have been' with a stormy night and some fallen trees! Next time, we'll concentrate on the northern lights for you. ;-) Property Owner

Karen December 2023

“We spent a lovely week at this property.”

The owners were very helpful during the stay and had gone to a lot of trouble to decorate the property with Christmas in mind; lots of lovely touches. The property has everything you need for a self-catering week away, as suggested by previous reviews. Although the weather was not particularly good, there is plenty to do in the area. We had booked specifically to see snow on the high tops, and were not disappointed. The chalet was warm and comfortable despite the chill and rain/sleet outside. We shall definitely return in future - the best recommendation of all. Thank you for a lovely break.

- Karen, December 2023

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the stay with us, despite the less than favourable weather we provided. And glad the 'Christmassy' feel worked for you. The good thing about the Scottish highlands is, no matter the season, there is always something glorious to see. That said, next visit, we'll aim to add a little more Sun into your schedule! Property Owner

Anna December 2023

“Lovely chalet with everything you need.”

Warm and cosy and very welcoming to our dog! Thoughtful and kind hosts may the stay extra special. I hope we will be back!

- Anna, December 2023

Thank you for your review of Torbreck Chalet. We're glad you enjoyed your short stay and hope to welcome you back for a longer visit in the near future. Property Owner

Sophie November 2023

“We had a wonderful week at Torbreck Chalet.”

I had read all the great reviews and had high hopes - we weren’t disappointed. One of the best self catering places we have stayed in, and we’ve been lucky to stay in many over the years. The owners are friendly and welcoming, and as others have said, there if needed, but never intrusive. The chalet was clean, well equipped, super warm, dog friendly, with treats, blanket, towel etc provided for our little dog too. We cooked in the chalet most days (well equipped kitchen and a dishwasher) and we spent a lot of time in the warm cosy lounge resting and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. We saw many bird species, a gorgeous red squirrel outside the kitchen window each morning and we even spied the Pine Marten too. There are lots of lovely walks straight from the chalet door, it is so peaceful and calming. We were very sad to leave, as was our little dog, but we plan to return again and explore more of the area and enjoy the chalet once again. A truly memorable and relaxing break and we would highly recommend this accommodation and area to anyone.

- Sophie, November 2023

It's lovely to hear that you enjoyed your stay so much, and we thank you for this review. We can't take any credit for the beautiful natural surroundings that we are fortunate enough to live in; but we're glad we did our bit to enhance your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Property Owner

Alastair October 2023

“We had a fantastic two week stay at Torbreck.”

The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. The location is stunning, with plenty of walks around right from the cottage. We loved our stay and looking forward to returning!

- Alastair, October 2023

Thank you for your kind words. We're delighted you enjoyed the peace and isolation of Torbreck Chalet, as well as being up to the challenge of a couple of stormy nights during your stay. We hope the wildlife photography rewarded you with a few nice shots. Property Owner

Robert October 2023

“Lovely location.”

Fantastic for dogs, walks from the door. Red squirrels at the window. We will be back

- Robert, October 2023

Thank you for taking the time to review Torbreck Chalet, Robert. Glad you enjoyed yourselves. We look forward to your return visit. Kevin & Sharon. Property Owner

James September 2023

“A delightful property set within a pine wood setting.”

We found Torbreck to be both warm and comfortable, perfect for two travellers who enjoyed the daily spectacle of red squirrels and other wildlife just outside the kitchen window. Lovely walks from the back door into the surrounding countryside were we spied both red deer and crested tits. A delightful spot with helpful owners close by for tips on places to visit off the tourist track etc. A very pleasant week.

- James, September 2023

Thank you for your positive review. We're delighted you found Torbreck Chalet so much to your liking, and managed to maximise your time in our beautiful Cairngorm countryside. Property Owner

Valerie September 2023

“This is a perfect destination in the Aviemore area.”

Peaceful, surrounded by nature and wild life, and a wonderful base for everything. The chalet has everything you need, the owners are attentive but don’t bother you, and we will definitely be going back.

- Valerie, September 2023

it was a pleasure to host your stay, Valerie, and we are really pleased that you found it so suitable, particularly in view of your love of cycling, hill walking and Munro-bagging.. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future, as you seek further adventures on Scotland's glorious mountain ranges. Best wishes Kevin & Sharon. Property Owner

Jon August 2023

“What a great chalet in the most beautiful setting.”

After a warm welcome from Kevin, we entered Torbrek Chalet and found it to be clean, tidy and well equipped. The property is in the perfect setting with easy access to paths in and around the Utah Lochans and Glen Feshie. We enjoyed daily walks, long trail runs and bikes rides, most of which were done directly from the chalet door. It was a joy to watch the red squirrels, woodpeckers and various other birds feeding directly outside the chalet. We made good use of the local Loch Insh to paddle board, sail and eat. A must visit is The Old Post Office cafe in Kincraig; the food was amazing and Ann and her staff are wonderful-this is a short three mile walk (one way) from Torbrek. Torbrek Chalet was super comfortable and had all the facilities we needed. The WIFI (for those interested) was really quick and supported multiple devices. The heating was so efficient and made the chalet warm and welcoming. Thank you Kevin and Sharon for a great stay. We have already booked our next visit with you. Many thanks, Jon, Emma and Ayla

- Jon, August 2023

We're glad you all had such a wonderful time last week, and enjoyed both Torbreck Chalet and the local environs. We'll aim for a little more sun, but just as much fun, for your next visit. Even though you squeezed so much into your week, there's so much more for you to do right on our doorstep! Kevin & Sharon. Property Owner

Julie July 2023

“Chalet was spotless, comfortable and in a wonderful setting.”

We received a warm welcome from the owners on our arrival and we appreciated their knowledge on the various walks and wildlife around the property. The owners have put a lot of effort into making this a beautiful place to stay with lots of little personal touches both inside and in the grounds. The chalet is very well equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday there.

- Julie, July 2023

Thank you for your beautiful comments. We're glad you found Torbreck Chalet and its setting so enjoyable, especially Sharon's extra personal touches around the inside and outside of the property. Property Owner

Stuart July 2023

“Great location and chalet for a break with a dog.”

Owners very friendly and helpful if required, everything was clean on arrival and set up including some nice touches like toys to keep the dog amused while it's raining! Amazing walks nearby and not too far from Aviemore so plenty of things to keep you amused also. Wildlife around the chalet is amazing also

- Stuart, July 2023

Glad to hear how much both of you, and your dog, enjoyed your stay at Torbreck Chalet. Apologies that we couldn't give you a rain free stay! We'll work on that for your next stay. :-) Property Owner

Darren June 2023

“Me & my Wife recenly stayed at Torbreck Chalet for 7 nights, an absolutely wonderful Chalet nestled inside woodland.”

The Chalet itself was fabulous & comfortable & the destination equally impressive, with so much from the doorstep, just walk or cycle & you will be on cloud nine. We thoroughly recommend Torbreck Chalet if your into your wildlife and especially if your into walking and cycling. You can park your vehicle right in front of entrance door, probably the easiest offload we have ever had. If you have slight mobility issues, this Chalet could be for you. Darren & Alison

- Darren, June 2023

It is wonderful to read your beautiful review of Torbreck Chalet. Thank you, folks. We're delighted that you found the chalet and its location so well suited to your own needs, while appreciating it's benefit for a walking or cycling holiday. As for the wildlife... Well we can't take much credit for that! We look forward to welcoming you back. Thanks again. X. Property Owner

Michael May 2023

“We have been self catering in excess of 40 years and this is possibly the best property we have stayed in.”

The location is lovely, and it is possible to walk for miles without needing to use the car; we saw red squirrels from the kitchen window every day. The chalet is comfortably furnished and equipped with everything we could possibly have needed during our stay and was spotlessly clean. Kevin and Sharon were friendly and helpful in an unobtrusive way.

- Michael, May 2023

Thank you for your positive review of Torbreck Chalet. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and found the chalet and its local environment so suitable for your needs. Property Owner

Paul May 2023

“THIS IS AN UNBELIEVABLE CHALET SITUATED IN THE PINE FOREST.”

PEACE AND TRANQUIL AND HONESTLY OUR FAVOURITE PLACE WE HAVE STAYED EVER. SURROUNDED BY WILD LIFE, DEER, RED SQUIRRELS AND PINE MARTINS RIGHT OUTSIDE THE KITCHEN WINDOW. CHALET WAS SO COSY, CLEAN AND EVERYTHING WE COULD POSSIBLE NEED FOR A WONDERFUL STAY. KEVIN AND SHARON WERE THE PERFECT HOSTS. THERE IF WE NEED HELP OR ADVICE ETC BUT LEFT US SPACE TO RELAX AND CHILL. THE PERFECT BALANCE. WE WILL MOST DEFINETLY BE RETURNING. SUMMER OR WINTER THIS HOLIDAY HOME IS A GEM. LOTS TO DO IN THE AREA, WALKS, LOCHS, RIVERS,SHOPPING IN AVIEMORE, MOUNTAINS. IT HAS IT ALL.

- Paul, May 2023

You are so kind with your comments, guys. Thank you so much. We hope we can live up to this on your next visit: we can guarantee the chalet, but being as confident about the antics of the local wildlife is a little beyond our skill-set. We'll do our best, and look forward to your return. Property Owner

Elizabeth May 2023

“A “Nature Lovers Paradise” with so much wildlife in the immediate vicinity; variety of birds, pine martens, deer & of course the red squirrels.”

With only the helpful considerate owners near by you have peace & tranquility. The chalet has all one needs for a comfortable stay.

- Elizabeth, May 2023

Thank you for your positive review, Elizabeth. We are delighted to hear how happy you were, with both the Chalet and the local wildlife. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Property Owner

Melanie April 2023

“Relaxing warm and cosy surrounded by the forest you are away with nature.”

So much to see and do without using car. Wild life abounds we loved it

- Melanie, April 2023

So pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your stay. We can't always promise the wildlife will play game, but you timed it to perfection. Property Owner

Stephen April 2023

“We loved our break at Torbreck!”

The location was perfect for a quiet, get-away-from-it-all holiday. There were walks from the door through the forest to the beautiful Uath Lochans, as well as short drives to the well-known Cairngorm landmarks. The woods around the chalet were rich in wildlife, with red squirrels, roe deer and many bird species coming right up to the chalet. The property was just what we needed, being both spacious and well-equipped. The owners were very helpful and helped make this a perfect stay.

- Stephen, April 2023

Thank you for your extremely positive review. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay, and got maximum benefit from both the chalet and its surroundings. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

Gracie April 2023

“We had an absolutely wonderful holiday at Torbreck chalet, probably one of the best we've ever had!”

The chalet is perfect: warm, cosy and spotlessly clean. The owners include some welcome supplies for dogs as well as humans which was really sweet and very much appreciated. Thankfully we had wonderful weather so didn't need the towels or blankets for our dog, but Tate very much enjoyed the dog treats! The bed and settee were extremely comfy and the kitchen is equipped with everything you could need. We actually stayed in and cooked every night and it was wonderful to relax in such a peaceful, quiet space every evening. The location is brilliant, you feel as though you are in the middle of the wilderness tucked away in the forest and we never saw people walking past on the walking/cycle route, but it's very close to amenities if you need to grab something from the shops or want to pop out for some food. There are lots of cafes and pubs recommended nearby in the very helpful guide in the chalet, which also includes lots of local info and manuals for things in the chalet (no faffing about trying to work out appliances)! We saw loads of lovely wildlife right outside the chalet including a roe deer. We enjoyed watching the bird feeders every day and seeing the antics of red sequirrels who were usually there most of the day, as well as countless species of birds, all right from our window. The chalet is very close to loads of beautiful walks. We only drove to go to a couple of places, and each time for less than 20 minutes. We visited Aviemore, Cairn Gorm, Loch Einich and Loch Insh reserve. We can only do 4 or 5 miles at a time (our dog only has 3 legs!) so if you want to walk further you can easily not have to drive at all while you're there. It was very quiet at all the places we visited and everywhere seems very clean and looked after too. By far our favourite walks were around the Uath Lochans right from the door of the chalet. The scenery is just stunning - in fact, of all the places we went that week, the lochans were the most beautiful spot for us to get engaged! We had the most perfect week and really can't recommend the chalet enough. We look forward to visiting again in the future :) thank you for such a brilliant holiday! Richard, Gracie and Tate xxx

- Gracie, April 2023

Congratulations on your engagement, Gracie and Richard. We don't think you can find a better spot for a proposal than on the cliffs over looking the Uath Lochans. Very pleased that you enjoyed your stay, and that the local wildlife played by the rules and paraded in the right places, at the right times, for you to really appreciate them. Best wishes for the wedding. See you soon Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Lorraine March 2023

“This was one of our best holiday breaks so peaceful and the chalet had everything you needed .”

Lovely wildlife all around you and walks no need to far if you want to . Will definitely try and go again.

- Lorraine, March 2023

So very pleased that you found everything you needed for a great relaxing holiday - both inside and outside the Chalet, Lorraine. We look forward to welcoming you back just as soon as you are able. Property Owner

Diane March 2023

“We have had the best holiday in this wonderland chalet.”

The surrounding forest and mountains were spectacular. The wildlife including birds and squirrels were a joy. The chalet was warm and cosy and we wanted for nothing. We can highly recommend and shall be returning. Thanks for your perfect hosting

- Diane, March 2023

We are so glad you found everything you were looking for in a relaxing holiday at Torbreck. I think we might adopt "wonderland chalet" as our tag-line! We look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

Clare February 2023

“Had a wonderful stay and the chalet had everything we needed - comfortable, warm, and easy to get to.”

It's beautifully located and we were delighted to see a red squirrel having breakfast outside the kitchen window each morning! We'll definitely be staying again in the future.

- Clare, February 2023

Thank you for your lovely comments, and we're glad our resident squirrels kept you suitably entertained. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

Christopher February 2023

“Lovely property in super location in the middle of woods.”

Loved watching the red squirrels and bird life. The chalet was well equipped and comfortable, and the owners were friendly and helpful. I would thoroughly recommend this property.

- Christopher, February 2023

Thank you for your review Chris. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Torbreck Chalet, and found it worthy of your recommendation. We look forward to seeing you again . - Whilst the chalet remains pretty much the same all year round, visiting us in a different season will give you a range of alternative fauna and flora to admire. Property Owner

Samantha February 2023

“Lovely little chalet in the heart of the Cairngorms - we very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely return in the future.”

- Samantha, February 2023

We're very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Torbreck Chalet, and thank you for spreading the word. We look forward to your return visit. Property Owner

Michelle January 2023

“The area of this property was incredible.”

Deep in the woods. Waking up every morning to squirrels outside the front door. This property is perfect for someone who likes going out walking everyday as you step outside the front door to forest walks. stunning forest walks that go on for miles and beyond. Easy paths to walk with stunning views. I went everywhere in the scotish highlands for walks but being honest the scenic walks straight from this property beat anywhere else in the highlands except of course morlich beach which you must go see as its stunning!.

- Michelle, January 2023

We are delighted to hear that you found our location so stimulating. We can't really take credit for it ourselves, but we're please that our chalet met your requirements so nicely. Property Owner

Neil November 2022

“Great property.”

The owners where very good and helpful. The chalet in the forest was so quiet and tranquil. Everything you needed was in the chalet. We did manage to see the deer from the living room window. Do not esitate to book, you will not be disappointed.

- Neil, November 2022

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, Neil. And thank you for the lovely feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future Property Owner

Richard November 2022

“An amazing get away,off the beaten track,but chalet immaculate & surrounding area has lots of walks & activities.”

Don’t miss out,it’s beautiful.

- Richard, November 2022

So very glad to know that you found our chalet to your liking, and enjoyed your stay. We certainly can;t argue on how beautiful the local scenery is - we just can't take credit for that ! Property Owner

Nadine October 2022

“We stayed here at the end of October/beginning of November and had a fantastic stay.”

Nestled away in what feels like a private woodlands, this property has everything you need to have a wonderful time in the Cairngorms. There are woodland walks from the doorstep and some well placed bird feeders, one of my favourite experiences was making a pot of tea, sitting on the balcony with a book surrounded by birds! The owners were lovely, we had some issues with smoke detectors during our stay but they were so very helpful and did everything they could to rectify the issue in a timely manner. The accommodation has been well thought out, the furnishings were to a high standard with some beautifully thoughtful additions - the biscuits were appreciated both by the pooch and ourselves! We will definitely be booking again in the future.

- Nadine, October 2022

Phil October 2022

“Super Chalet in a secluded quite spot.”

Ideally located to explore the Cairngorms with plenty of walking from the door. A great place for spotting wildlife including Golden Eagles and Red Squirrels. Owners very helpful.

- Phil, October 2022

We're glad you found Torbreck Chalet so well located for your wildlife spotting and exploration. It was a pleasure to be your host. Property Owner

Christine October 2022

“Another great week spent at Torbreck, it's a gem of a cottage hidden away in the forest with many walks from the front door, perfect for our dog.”

Red squirrels and many birds visit the feeders and we even saw deer in the garden several times. Cottage is warm and cosy and spotlessly clean. Plenty to explore in the local area. Thanks again to Kevin and Sharon for a lovely stay.

- Christine, October 2022

Glad you enjoyed your stay again folks - and that you got so much out of our local visitors. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

Shona September 2022

“We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Torbreck Chalet.”

Location was stunning. The chalet had everything that one needs for a relaxing holiday and there are many walks just minutes from the front door. Watching squirrels and birds feeding from the kitchen window made washing up a pleasure rather than a chore! This chalet is a diamond of a find and we will definitely be booking again. Kevin and Sharon thank you so much for a brilliant, relaxing and destressing week! Shona and John Payne

- Shona, September 2022

Thank you for your kind comments, Shona & John. We're delighted you had such a good time and found the Chalet and its location so well matched to your needs. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. regards, Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Hugo August 2022

“This is a really fantastic cottage to stay in and visit the Cairngorms.”

There was excellent communication by the hosts and the house was very clean, spacious and cosy. There's a balcony where you can just sit and relax listening to the birds outside. The hosts very kindly placed several bird feeders around the house, so you always have an activity of small birds visiting, as well as red squirrels and we even saw a pine marten. The location is excellent, the house is set in the middle of a forest, so quiet and peaceful. You can just step out of the house and go for a walk around the Uath Lochans, or even walk down to Lock Insh and have swim. By car, you can quickly reach other iconic walks, such as Loch Morlich, Loch an Eilein, Sgor Gaoith or visit the Highlands Folk Museum in Newtonmore (highly recommended!).

- Hugo, August 2022

Thank you for your extremely positive comments on Torbreck Chalet, Hugo It was a pleasure to be your host for the week, and we are so very pleased that you appreciated both the chalet and its surroundings. It will be a pleasure to have you stay again, next time you are in these parts. Take care. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Lisa August 2022

“A truly beautiful place to stay!”

Kevin & Sharon were very welcoming & couldn't be more helpful with any queries we had. The chalet had everything we needed for our stay including a lovely handbook on the local area and it was very clean and organised. There were beautiful walks to take the dog on our doorstep and the property is located far enough away that you feel fully immersed in the forest, but close enough that it's not too far to adventure into and around Aviemore. Thank you so much Kevin & Sharon for your hospitality, effort and for providing a lovely place to escape the world in.

- Lisa, August 2022

Thank you for your heart-warming comments, Lisa. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay with us, and that you found the chalet and its location so well suited to your needs. We'd be delighted to host you again, when next you visit these parts. Regards. Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Tracy August 2022

“Comfortable chalet in a lovely location, lots of wildlife to see with daily visits from red squirrels and woodpeckers amongst many.”

- Tracy, August 2022

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed our daily visitors to Torbreck Chalet, Tracy. Being literally 'in the woods' certainly helps in that regard. We hope you'll consider staying again, next time you are in the area. It will be our pleasure. Regards Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Helen August 2022

“We Spent a most enjoyable, relaxing week at Torbreck Chalet.”

The owners were very friendly, helpful and informative while remaining unobtrusive. The chalet was in a lovely setting with wildlife, scenic walks and bike rides on the doorstep. It provided us with a dog friendly base for exploring Glen Feshie and the surrounding area. We plan to return in the future.

- Helen, August 2022

Very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us, Helen. We look forward to seeing you back in the near future. Property Owner

Pamela May 2022

“Stunning location.”

The owners have enhanced this further with strategically placed seating and feeders, allowing sightings of red squirrels and a huge variety of birds. Very quiet, but with easy access to wonderful walks. Spotlessly clean, with helpful and friendly advice on the area if required.

- Pamela, May 2022

Thank you for your kind words, Pamela. We are glad you could fully appreciate Torbreck Chalet, and our efforts to enhance its natural splendour with a few touches of our own. Property Owner

Linda April 2022

“Great stay in the chalet in the woods at Torbreck.”

Red squirrels were regular visitors and many walk trails from the chalet. Hosts Kevin and Sharon helpful and friendly.

- Linda, April 2022

So glad you enjoyed both your stay and the Red Squirrels, Linda. We look forward to inviting you back. Property Owner

Kerry April 2022

“A great location with walks on the doorstep for the dog around the Lochans.”

The chalet was warm, comfortable and ideal for exploring the area. Not too far from amenities but tucked away in the forest so wonderfully quiet. We will be returning!

- Kerry, April 2022

It is great to hear that you found our chalet so pleasant, and so well positioned for your activities. We look forward to welcoming you back in the not too distant future. Property Owner

Bryony March 2022

“A lovely cosy chalet, nestled in the heart of the Inshriach Forest but close to the owners' home so you don't feel too isolated!”

Everything you need is provided, from maps to dog bowls, and whilst the property's completely clean and comfortable, it's not so pristine that you feel awkward coming back with muddy boots and damp coats. It's walkable to Loch Insh and Kincraig, and access to Aviemore and the Cairngorms is easy with a car, but there are several days' worth of exploration in the forest itself before you even need to drive. We're definitely hoping to get back and explore some more from Torbreck!

- Bryony, March 2022

We're delighted you enjoyed your stay in Torbreck Chalet, Bryony. It was a pleasure to be your hosts and we look forward to welcoming you back just as soon as you can make it. Property Owner

Simon February 2022

“Had an excellent week.”

The cottage is ideally placed to explore Glen Feshie and Inshriach by bike or on foot. The cottage is warm and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed.

- Simon, February 2022

We're glad you found Torbreck Chalet so well suited to your needs, Simon. And that you both enjoyed exploring our local part of the Cairngorms aas well as the wider area. It will be a pleasure to host you for further adventures in the future. Property Owner

Lindsey February 2022

“A fairy tale chalet in an idyllic location.”

Facilities within the chalet are comfortable and very clean. The chalet is well located within minutes of many circular walks in forest and loch settings. Perfect location for watching wildlife, walking and relaxing. Owners very friendly and accommodating. Would thoroughly recommend!

- Lindsey, February 2022

Thank you for your review of Torbreck Chalet, Lindsay. We are delighted that you and Neil enjoyed your stay, and managed to get the maximum out of the picturesque scenery with its seasonal snow covering last week. We look forward to welcoming you back in a warmer season, so you can compare last week's whiteness with the green hues of a Scottish summer Regards Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Carlton February 2022

“Thank you for a lovely stay!”

Torbreck Chalet is ideally located for walking, cycling and exploring the Cairngorms, with miles and miles of tracks right outside the door. The chalet itself is very clean and well equipped. It's also warm and has a fabulous bath to soak in after a long day in the snow! We will definitely be back.

- Carlton, February 2022

Thank you for you comments. It was a pleasure to be your hosts. We are very pleased the chalet and its location met your expectations and allowed you to get the most out of your stay in the Cairngorms. We look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

Paul January 2022

“The accommodation was excellent, with all furnishings and equipment being of a high standard.”

The location was fantastic. Being located in a forest, there were many walks available directly from the chalet, but was only a short drive from attractions in the area. The owners were extremely friendly and always available to assist. The feeders around the chalet kept us amused for hours, with red squirrels and a wide variety of birds being regular visitors.

- Paul, January 2022

Thank you for your kind comments, Paul. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay, and were able to appreciate the benefits of our immediate vicinity, as well as some of the other amenities in this part of the Cairngorms National Park. Property Owner

Hannah January 2022

“We had a wonderfully relaxing time at Torbreck Chalet.”

The chalet is warm and cosy as well as spotlessly clean and really well-equipped. It's a short drive from Kingussie or Aviemore but feels as if it's in the middle of nowhere, which was just what we wanted. We loved watching the birds and red squirrels with our morning coffee before heading out for walks with our dog; there are stunning walks on the doorstep and a beautiful loch just 10 minutes stroll away. The owners live next door and while leaving us to our own devices most of the time, gave us some great suggestions for places to visit as well as eat and drink. We particularly loved The Old Bridge pub in Aviemore which is dog-friendly. We can't recommend Torbreck Chalet highly enough.

- Hannah, January 2022

We feel very privileged to live in this particular location, and are glad to hear that you found it to your liking as well. There really are so many places to enjoy the outdoors that it can be difficult to narrow it down to a handful of recommendations, and the same goes for local eateries. We are therefore very pleased to hear that our recommendations met the mark for you. Property Owner

Stephen January 2022

“Stayed mid January, 2022 unfortunately we missed the snow but found the accommodation to be quite amazing.”

Perfect for 2 to 4 people, warm, cosy, everything you would need is at hand. The location gets a 12 out of 10, stunning area, walks or bikes perfect. Totally enjoyed our time there and the owners are very helpful and welcoming. I'd love to go back in the near future and confidently recommend the place to anyone. Thanks for having us, amazing...

- Stephen, January 2022

Thank you for your kind words. We are delighted you enjoyed you stay, and look forward to seeing you again in the near future. Sorry you missed the snow, give us some advanced warning and we'll try to arrange weather to your tastes next time. Property Owner

Rebecca December 2021

“We stayed at Torbreck Chalet for a week over New Years Eve, along with our dog.”

We couldn't have asked for a better trip. The chalet is even better than we ever imagined, secluded in the most amazing woods next to 3 amazing lochans (and Loch Insh), although only 15 minutes from Aviemore which has a good array of things to do (bars, shops, restaurants). The chalet is amazingly cosy with its fire & private balconies. Kevin & Sharon couldn't have been more helpful or accommodating, making us feel at home straight away. We'll definitely be back

- Rebecca, December 2021

We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay so much, Rebecca. It was a pleasure to meet you and we are glad you were happy with both the chalet and its location. We look forward to your return visit. :-) Property Owner

Sharon December 2021

“Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect property!”

Stayed over Xmas week, the property was decorated very festive for us, thanks to our hosts Kevin and Sharon! It’s set in the most idilic setting, and perfect location! We would definitely recommend this property! Thanks again guys!

- Sharon, December 2021

You are most welcome, Sharon. We're glad you liked the festive touches and that we were able to provide you with a suitable setting for your Christmas celebrations. Out best wishes for the year ahead, Kevin & Sharon.(& Alfie). Property Owner

- Kate, December 2021

We are absolutely delighted that you enjoyed your pre-Christmas stay at Torbreck Chalet, Kate. And thank you so much for your positive feedback. We look forward to seeing you again in the future Kevin & Sharon Property Owner

Darren November 2021

“We had an absolutely wonderful stay in this idyllic location.”

The chalet itself was warm, cosy and very well appointed as well as spotlessly clean. Our hosts were fantastic, providing excellent communication in the run up to our stay and helping us out with routes when we discovered road closures. During our stay Kevin and Sharon were friendly and on hand if we needed them but in no way obtrusive and gave us some ideas for places to visit. Our dog enjoyed meeting Alfie too! The chalet provided us with a perfect base to explore the beautiful Cairngorms - we honestly had the most wonderful break!

- Darren, November 2021

We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and look forward welcoming you back in the future. Meantime, our best wishes for your Christmas festivities and the New Year. Kevin & Sharon (and Alfie) Property Owner

Robert October 2021

“Kevin, Sharon and Alfie (chocolate Labrador) were friendly and welcoming.”

The Chalet has everything you need and stunning location on the edge of the forest. Location is excellent with plenty of places to visit and plenty of trails for walking or mountain biking. Would highly recommend.

- Robert, October 2021

Lorna October 2021

“What a wonderful stay we had at Torbreck!”

Kevin and Sharon were welcoming, friendly and attentive hosts. The chalet was immaculately clean and we had everything we needed. And the location is amazing! We would definitely return for another stay!

- Lorna, October 2021

Mark October 2021

“Lovely quiet location in the woods, with red squirrels feeding outside the kitchen window.”

Owners friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. The chalet is generally well equipped, although missing a few kitchen items perhaps. The heated entrance porch was handy for drying boots and coats, also for cleaning dogs before entering the main room. Plenty of room for two people, although the bed is a standard double, not as large as we are used to.

- Mark, October 2021

Christopher September 2021

“Amazing holiday in a beautiful national park, staying in a wonderful chalet!”

The hosts were very friendly and made us feel really welcome.

- Christopher, September 2021

thank you for your lovely comments, Christopher, and we're truly delighted that you both enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

“Beautiful and peaceful place, surrounded by stunning scenary and great walking.”

V. much enjoyed our stay.

- Michael, August 2021

Anthony July 2021

“After our week in torbreck chalet we will definitely be booking again.”

The chalet has everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Absolutely spotless upon arrival. It's set in a forest which is very quiet apart from the wildlife. The chalet is a perfect place to relax and enjoy the surroundings and many trails. We walked a different trail everyday and have some brilliant photos of the landscapes and wildlife. The red squirrels on a morning are a joy to watch. We saw roe deer on many of our walks, as well as one approaching the chalet. If you enjoy walking,hiking, and photography like us, then the chalet is set in the ideal place. Although we didn't see much of the owners. The few occasions we did, they where very polite and asked about our stay. We could not fault anything. Highly recommend.

- Anthony, July 2021

Fiona July 2021

“We had a wonderful week in the Torbreck Chalet.”

Everything has been well thought out and it was clean and comfortable. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, leaving us shortbread, iron bru and milk. The area is fabulous and we loved the fact we could walk out from the chalet to the Lochs and follow marked trails with amazing views. The chalet is well equipped for cooking meals, which was useful, as to go out to eat you have to drive (unless you like walking pre dinner and afterwards) and due to the current COVID situation places were booked up quite a long way in advance. However, we liked nothing better than sitting on the balcony with drinks before dinner and watching the squirrels, one evening a deer came wandering through too. So all in all, a great place to be. If you want to take part in any adventure activities do book in advance as it gets very busy. I did the Zip Trek adventure on the Alvie estate and it was great value for money. Thanks Kevin and Sharon for a great week.

- Fiona, July 2021

Ian July 2021

“Torbreck Chalet is in a fantastic location surrounded by woods.”

The hosts Kevin and Sharon were really friendly and very helpful. And we loved Alfie! Many thanks Ian and Trish

- Ian, July 2021

Alice June 2021

“Torbreck is a lovely quiet place to stay, and a great location for exploring the Loch Insh/Feshiebridge area and much of the Cairngorms.”

The chalet itself is clean, comfortable and well equipped, would definitely recommend!

- Alice, June 2021

Ian May 2021

“The chalet was in a beautiful, quiet location, on the edge of a forrest, the owners Kevin and Sharon (and Alfie the chocolate Labrador) could not have been more friendly and helpful and the chalet itself was immaculately clean and had all the amenities required.”

We will certainly be recommending Torbreck chalet to our friends and hope to return in the near future.

- Ian, May 2021

Christine May 2021

“Wonderful location and delighted to wake up to red squirrels every morning on the feeders, we even had a visit from a pine marten two evening, beautiful walks from the doorstep.”

The cottage owners were so helpful and friendly.

- Christine, May 2021

“Me and my partner visited Torbreck Chalet for a week, we had an amazing time, it really is a place of tranquility and is close to nature.”

The chalet had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, bed was comfortable and bathroom was lovely with a nice bath after a good walk was nice to relax and unwind. Kitchen was also fully equipped and also had great views of the red squirrels! We were greeted my kevin and his friendly dog Alfie, we also got shortbread and iron bru in the chalet. The chalet is close to many walking and cycle trails, uath lochan is a fantastic local walk which you can start from the chalet, the red trail will take you higher up and you can get a fantastic view of the surrounding area the white trail will take you round the lochs. Kevin and Sharon will give you information if you need it and tell you good places to eat and other walking trails. It is also close by to aviemore with plenty to do and see, I would recommend loch morlich short drive away as it has a sandy beach and beautiful walks. All in all we think this place is fantastic, we could not fault it, whether you want peace and quiet and space to relax or you want to do plenty walking or cycling this place is definitely where you want to be. Alot of credit to Kevin and Sharon, wonderful people and a beautiful chalet. Thanks so much. Becky & Bradley.

“Excellent self catering lodge.”

A very well equipped lodge, very clean and very cosy. We really enjoyed our stay and the doggy welcome pack was lovely. The lodge is located off the beaten track which is perfect, lots of walks in the local woods and within easy driving distance of Aviemore and the Cairngorms. We will definitely be back.

“Absolutely gorgeous comfy and cosy Chalet with amazing surroundings.”

Loved our week here, lovely clean Chalet, with plenty of facilities including a deep bath to relax in after a day of exploring the Lochs and Forest routes with some lovely views from the balcony and lots of Red Squirrel sightings which absolutely made my day! The owners were so friendly, and helpful and really have something quite special here. Alfie the Chocolate Lab was a particular favourite of mine, and the added extras left for my dog whilst we stayed were more than appreciated. Aviemore is a short drive away too with plenty of shops to facilitate an adventure holiday with a decent size Tesco for everything you might need for a self catering break. Would absolutely love to return.

“Absolutely loved the chalet itself: really cosy and comfortable, spacious and nice decor.”

The surroundings are fantastic too, down a single forest track and nestled in Inshriach Forest, full of red squirrels and birds aplenty and the stunning Uath Lochans. Kevin and Sharon, the owners, were super friendly and welcoming and left us to enjoy the chalet as if it were ours. It's also within easy reach (30mins) of the Cairn Gorm ski area and the northern entrance to the Cairngorm mountains, as well as Rothiemurcus and Glenmore forests - we were spoilt for choice! A perfect chalet to enjoy the perfectly wild Cairngorms.

“We enjoyed our week at Torbreck Chalet, it was very clean, well equipped and cosy.”

There are many amazing walks right from the door and in the surrounding area. We were lucky to have a couple of clear nights watching the stars from the balcony. There was plenty of wildlife to entertain us too, especially red squirrels and a Greater Spotted Woodpecker. Kevin and Sharon were friendly and helpful and we hope to return.

“Just had a fantastic week at Torbreck Chalet, the Chalet was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and well equipped, despite being minimal due to Covid rules we had everything we could possibly have needed.”

The location is perfect for walking we covered over 80 miles in the week and over 60 of those were right from the doorstep. With tracks and trails through the extensive forest including parts of the long distance Speyside and Badenoch ways there was no need to use the car to explore this stunning area. The owners Kevin and Sharon are very friendly and if we had needed anything we know it wouldn't have been a problem to just knock on their door. We will definitely be staying here again.

“The cottage is in such a lovely setting with lots of nature on your door step.”

We saw wood peckers and red squirrels from the kitchen window. Our hosts were wecoming and there was a doggy welcome pack for our lab. It is off the beaten track and all the better for it. would recommend the walk through the woods to the mini lochs which are in a lovely setting. Would have no hesitation booking again.
