    As I had mobility issues with broken ankle and on crutches I found the steps outside property quite tricky with the crutches.The bush needs trimmed back on front path as it totally covers it.

    The property was very clean Not too far away from town centre

    There was only one thing that I would add is to consider providing sun chairs to sit outside. There is a picnic bench but not the comfiest when you may want to sit outside and read, listen to music etc.

    Property was in an excellent location. We normally travel to Aviemore twice a year. Short walk to town and lots of other walks around to enjoy. The house was clean and tidy and had everything we needed for our stay. The garden was enclosed and perfect for the sun. Beds were clean and comfortable and the shower was just right too. Plenty of choices for watching tv if the weather was wet and lots of cafes, restaurants to eat in.

    A wonderful home from home with everything you need for an enjoyable and comfortable stay (possibly the most comfortable beds ever). Very friendly and helpful hosts. The property is in a lovely quiet location, but within easy walking distance to Aviemore centre.

    Fence door at side of house would be better if same height as main fence for dogs. Our dog was fine but would feel more at ease if higher gate.

    Lovely comfortable house. Great area. Perfect size. Beds very comfortable and hosts answer queries very fast and we're so helpful

    Lovely, cosy, well equipped and beautifully clean lodge. Communication with hosts was excellent. Much appreciated welcome treats on arrival. Great to have an enclosed garden for the dog and it was a very dog friendly lodge all round with bowls and even some lovely dog treats provided. Would most definitely recommend this property to others.

    Absolutely lovely and cozy little house only a short walk from Aviemore town center. Everything was clean, comfortable and thoughtfully set up. We really enjoyed the electric fireplace and board games after a day of hiking the Cairngorm. The beds were comfortable, the living room was great and the full kitchen was really helpful to have. There's a full refrigerator, a stove, and dishwasher. Most importantly - a coffee maker. The neighborhood was very quiet and we even saw deer one morning down the street. Everything was very clean and the wall switches were all labeled, accompanied with a detailed instruction book. Very helpful when you've been on the road traveling from one place to the next! We really enjoyed our stay here.

    Loved our stay here - location is perfect, it's walking distance to town but also situated in a quiet area. The property is lovely - everything you need, loved the decor & it had a small enclosed garden as well perfect for our little ones. Little treats on arrival we're appreciated - hosts we're available & helpful - we will definitely stay again.

    Very little not to like... I guess if I had to really nit pick the TV was pretty small by modern standards! That's about it!

    Great lodge to stay in! Lovely and modern interior, good size lounge, well appointed kitchen, comfy beds, lovely garden, secure shed (perfect for bike storage), and just a 10 to 15 min walk to the centre of town. Honestly it was perfect!

    We loved our stay at Orange Squirrel Lodge and would have definitely stayed longer had our plans allowed. The home was perfectly set up for our family and had everything ready for our arrival. It was lovely and warm and stocked with everything we needed, making it feel like a home from home. The owners were really helpful and quick to respond to messages making our stay in Aviemore super easy and enjoyable.

    Our family of 4 (kids aged 4 and 1) have just returned from a stay at the wonderful Orange Squirrel Lodge. Very clean and comfortable with all the facilities we needed including off street parking. Located in a quiet area with an easy 10 - 15 minute walk to the centre of Aviemore. Our hosts were fantastic, responding very quickly to a couple of questions we asked. Will definitely stay here again!
