Not as advertised
No signal on TV contacted host who eventually got back to me. They said the wire would be in the back of DVD, it was so we swapped it over, this didn’t fix it. Someone came round and tried to fix it on the 2nd day but couldn’t so said they would come on our last day and try again but when we got back from being out all day it still wasn’t fixed saying no signal. Having a son with autism made it even more difficult as he would normally watch a film whilst relaxing, as there was no tv we had to go out morning till night. WiFi was poor which would’ve been fine but as we had no tv it was only source of entertainment. Family in a nearby chalet had perfect WiFi. Paid £495 for 3 nights with no tv or WiFi, this put a real dampener on our holiday. Place was not as clean as I would’ve expected or have experienced in other self catering. We got one towel each but they were badly smelling of damp especially when wet. I reached out to the host to advise them that I was unhappy and that the chalet was not as advertised due to having no TV and have raised a complaint through VRBO.

Lovely, super clean property in a tranquil location. Great facilities with everything we needed for our three night stay. Comfortable king sized bed in a decent sized room. Parking space next to the accommodation. Our main issue was was with the on line check in as the welcome pack with the form to do this was not attached with the information sent by the hosts. It took a twenty minute phone call to the helpline to rectify this and we were not actually able to complete the registration as obtaining an activation code meant that the page for registration was lost. A simple laminated booklet in the chalet would have been much easier. We were unable to access the wifi or work the TV even after several attempts at following the instructions. The only other negative was that the towels had a very musty smell and a couple of hand towels in addition to the small bath towels would have been appreciated. This was not a major issue as we were only staying for a few days. All in all we enjoyed our stay and have taken away some nice memories.

Mixed feelings
Smell in main bathroom that persist. We wonder if there is a blockage on nearby area and should be reported to camp site. Sofa needs good cleaning and it is very uncomfortable. Tv signal disappear when rain. You pay for WiFi which is announced in package,but it does not work which is double injury . Single beds room is claustrophobic. Getting arrival package took 2 hrs of calls. Kitchen extractor filthy with fat and it is concerning if you cook and falls in food. Good location, feels homely but will not repeat .

Great location in Aviemore
Good sized, clean and comfortable caravan in a nice holiday park. Great location for a short walk into Aviemore and for reaching attractions around the area. Well appointed, although I couldn't find a chopping board. The TV didn't work for us but we were only there for 2 night so didn't matter. Contacted hosts for help but they didn't respond in time.

Clean and cosy but not ideal for young kids
The caravan is a good standard it’s clean well equipped and even has a dishwasher and bath which makes it ideal for families. The caravan is showing some signs of its age the owners should replace the rusty bathroom radiators especially as one leaks in the bathroom. The sofa seating is tired but a freshen up etc would help. The park itself has no play park, no ball games allowed the pub onsite wasn’t all that friendly either so really there’s nothing to do for little people but as a base for a holiday it was good it offers excellent value compared to other accommodations in aviemore

First impressions were that the outside of the property could do with some tlc. When we entered there was a strong sour smell like a dirty mop or a wet dog. The living seemed comfy enough and we liked the suite. The television was an “experience” in itself. The kitchen was well equipped and plenty of clean cutlery and dishes. It had a nice small dining area. The bathroom radiators were very rusty and there was a lot of mould on the silicon sealant around the shower/bath. The showers themselves were very good and powerful. The beds were very comfortable and the bedrooms were clean. The site itself was excellent and the facilities includin* the onsite bar was great.

This is a very cute and comfy but small trailer in with 90+ other trailers. It is located in a beautiful resort town. We just didn’t understand the terminology of “chalet” and had different expectations. Nice visit. We’d like to come back.

OK but problems
Property was fine but the heating wasn't working when we arrived and it's clear it had not been on for a long time. The water pressure was low on the boiler and I had to sort it myself as the local contact did not know how to. Also the television did not work. Fortunately we only stayed one night.

Very Nice - would stay again!
My husband and I stayed here a couple nights as we traveled around Scotland. GREAT location - quick access to everything without being in a congested area. Well equipped for everything we needed (could use a spatula). Only cons was I'm ridiculously afraid of spiders - and we found several spiders in the master shower coming from the shower faucet - like most places - the shower needs recaulked. Bed was listed as king size - I believe there is some variation in size between american/uk - and I didn't measure - but it seemed like a queen size bed to me. Overall - an amazing stay - we would definitely stay again.
