“We are thankful for a very comfortable and nice stay :)”
Beds, furniture and equipment seemed pretty new and were very comfortable. One of the rooms faces the street, two others the courtyard with the river behind - we had closed windows (early spring) so it was quiet and we slept really well. Early morning walk right behind the house along the river: a dipper, a wagtail and many more common birds. A good starting point for day trips into Cairngorms (by car) - we had a great time starting at Linn of Dee and on the other side - in Glenmore Nature Reserve.

“There was a musty smell in flat that never went away despite opening windows. All our clothes smelt of it when I got hom”
Close to town . Had a d/w and nice bathroom and kitchen . Dining table too heavy to move for just me .

“0/10 and Avoid - I would not recommend! Unfit and improper hosts - Katrina, Kayleigh and Stephen.”
The place was uninhabitable for a confirmed booking. A 6pm arrival: property was not clean, untidy, bed not made, wet linen hanging throughout property and washing machine on with someone’s personal clothing. Hosts were unhelpful and when escalated as a complaint, they failed to identify the issues and remedy it.

Slight confusion between what the Booking.com App was providing me in terms on entry to the property instructions V's the instructions sent from the property manager - i'd suggest that these align to mitigate any confusion.
