Set in Grantown on Spey and only less than 1 km from Grantown Museum, Brooklynn Guest House offers accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. It is situated 8.5 km from Abernethy Golf Club and provides room service. Beautiful house that was very clean and had all the modern amenities, but kept the charm of an old home. Shona was a wonderful host and she shared stories of the town and ideas for stops along our travels. Breakfast was delicious. Very close to the high street and the river Spey.

The guest house offers some units with lake views, and all units are fitted with a coffee machine. At the guest house, all units are allergy-free. The location was good- near Aviemore and Cairngorm national park. The room was comfortable and nicely furnished. The breakfast was very good and with fresh homemade bread who could complain. Excellent fruit salad and wonderful prepared scrambled eggs. The only problem was we ate too much the first morning. Thomas was a great host. He gave good advice about hikes in the the area and recommended restaurants in Grantown.
