Hosts were very friendly and attentive, providing a great welcome and suggestions for dinner in the evening, as well as a recommendation of an activity to do the next day after we checked out. Bathroom was private for our room, though not connected to the room itself. The bathroom was very nice. Our room also had a sink in the bedroom itself. Bed was a bit soft - the mattress was not the most comfortable, but overall, no issue. We very much enjoyed our stay, and if we stay in the area again would certainly consider the Avondale House again!

Cancelled reservation, no notice

So our reservation was for Thursday, May 22-24, 2025. We arrive at 5 & lady come out & says we don't have a reservation for that night, it had been 'cancelled." I never recieved an email or text and I had checked Hotel.com & they still had us down for the original time. The lady did check several other places in town and we managed to find a room but what if it was the high season? & it was more expensive. Then I called the next morning and she THEN said we were down for that night and the next but that was the 23rd & 24th which was wrong. What happened to her story of our reservation being cancelled? She said their "platform" gave them those dates. If I hadn't called, then would I have had to pay for the 2 days that wouldn't have been cancelled?

Our room was clean and comfortable with friendly, helpful hosts who made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Introduced us to their friendly dog and they were able to offer advice on where to eat dinner. Plenty information in the folder in the room of local attractions if anyone wanted. We would stay again.

Steve and Sue were wonderful hosts. Made us feel very welcome . Location was excellent with a resturant across the road and safe parking. Their home was ours as we petted the pets ( cats and dog) and had evening drinks with them both so very hospitable hosts. Their home if I am honest is a little tired in furnishings but that is only superficial. Adequate accommodation. Our room was small but I loved the bath situated at the end of the bed. Hubby wasnt so happy as there was no shower and with the toilet being outside our room and across the hall. Breakfast was also very good .

Only issue was having a lovely, claw foot tub in the bedroom. Would have been great with a romantic partner, not a friend.

Stay in Kingussie

Hosts were friendly, clean room and bathroom. Guesthouse smelt of cats and dog and breakfast was adequate. We would not choose to stay here again.

Property was dated, with dusty surfaces in room and a bathroom in need of a refurb. On a positive note the bed was very comfortable with fresh sheets and towels provided regularly. We did not use the hotel restaurant as breakfast food choices and an eating time had to be made the night before which we were not prepared to do.

Perfect for our one night stay

Perfect for our one night stay. Friendly hosts, clean and comfortable room and situated a short walk from the town. Close to area attractions. Lovely breakfast; great choice with plenty of fruit and a vegetarian cooked meal was our choice to set us up for the day.
