Tucked away in the attractive village of Tomintoul, is this contemporary, detached cottage, Tombeck. Immersed in the glorious scenery of the Cairngorms National Park, this homely abode welcomes families and friends seeking an action-packed break to the Scottish Highlands. After a day of hiking the fells, relax and unwind on the sofa as you search for your favourite show TV show, or choose a family favourite film and enjoy a cosy movie night. From here, a modern kitchen/diner awaits, hosting a sea of integrated appliances and plenty of worktop space to prepare your meals, whilst the dining area is perfect for family mealtimes. Completing the ground floor is the double bedroom, with Jack and Jill en-suite shower room, this is an ideal choice for those with limited mobility. Venture upstairs to find three more bedrooms, including the master with king-size bed and en-suite bathroom, followed by a twin and bunk room, each wonderfully presented with crisp white bed linen and plush duvets. Kick-start your morning with a refreshing cup of coffee out at the decking, before popping on your walking boots and waterproofs and heading on a scenic walk through the Abernethy National Nature Reserve. Within a short stroll there are choice of shops, a café and quality restaurant to try one evening, or continue along to the River Avon where you can cast away into the waters that teem with salmon and trout. Alternatively, visit the famous Malt Whisky Trail, which takes in seven world-famous working distilleries, it’s the ultimate Scotch experience, and there is a Whisky Castle just around the corner from the property. With Tombeck providing secure bike storage, why not bring along your mountain bikes and test your skills at nearby Glenliver, or take on the slopes at The Lecht Ski Centre, ideal during the winter months. For the adventurous there is an opportunity for stand up paddle boarding nearby, and there are mountain bike trails in Glenlivet. Why not take a ride on the Hogwarts Express which leaves from Inverness regularly. However you choose to spend your time here, return each evening and recharge your batteries at Tombeck.

Reviews

Tombeck was an excellent base for our holiday in the Highlands. We were 20 minutes from the Lecht ski area, just over an hour from Glenshee, and the same to Cairngorm, so it was ideally located to move around depending on where the best snow was. It was so comfy and cosy, and was really like a home away from home. The beds were comfy, and bed linen and towels were very high quality. The furnishings were all excellent, stylish and functional. There were a number of little touches which we really appreciated and made us feel at home, like Yankee Candles, Bose speakers, Nespresso machine (with selection of pods)and AppleTV. The kitchen was fully equipped with good quality cutlery and crockery and had everything we needed when we cooked at home. Having three bathrooms was perfect for us, and they were all well appointed. It really is as lovely as it looks in the photographs. There was ample off-street private parking, the street was very quiet (despite the location opposite a primary school) and it’s only a minute’s walk to the local Post Office and shop. We ate out at the local pub and the food and banter were excellent. All in all, very highly recommended!
