Description from owner
Description
Visiting Aberlour Retreat feels like having a break at your family's Highland countryside home. It's the perfect base for fishing, shooting, touring, relaxing and of course, exploring the Malt Whisky Trail - with the Aberlour Distillery just 500 yards down the road and the Macallan Distillery across the River Spey at the back of the cottages.
The location perfectly balances the peaceful setting behind private gardens and the convenience of having all the amenities of the vibrant Highland village Aberlour on your doorstep.
Park the car and relax away from the hustle and bustle of life, pop to the Café at the end of the garden, or amble around the corner to the well-reputed ‘Mash Tun’(one of 5 excellent local eateries/bars), and enjoy a wee dram and good food. Browse the gift shops and the gallery, sample some famous Joseph Walker Shortbread made right here in the village. Anglers might stroll across the Alice Litter Park for some fly fishing on the Spey (Great value day and week permits are available in the village). This truly is somewhere to relax and take things easy; everything you need is here.
50 distilleries, castles, fishing, walking, golf, skiing, water sports, beaches - all within a 10-40 min drive.
Changeovers are Fridays. Check Aberlourcottages COMe for best rates.

“Cancelled at last minute.”
I booked to stay from 26th Apr - 29th Apr. The owner initially asked if we could leave on the Sat' 28th which wasn't suitable as we were going up for my sons wedding on 28th. Holiday lettings contacted us to inform of the cancellation. But you only have to look at the availability to work out what went on. It is booked through my original dates and onwards till the middle of May. In my opinion this owner will quite happily let you down at a minutes notice if she receives a more generous booking option.

Response from the owner Dear John, I can only repeat my sincere apologies for having to cancel your reservation a couple of days before your planned arrival in order to repair a water leak in the cottage. I can assure you that there is currently nobody staying in the cottage to replace your original booking. Instead, the cottage is empty as we are carrying out repairs and paint work which we expect to complete soon. We appreciate that this cancellation was very inconvenient for you and would have valued the opportunity to find alternative accommodation for you if you had been open to this. I hope you have been successful in finding a suitable alternative and are able to enjoy your son's wedding.

“Cosy and central location”
Lovely and quiet location centrally placed for touring Speyside. Aberlour is small and the house being next door to the Mash Tun means no cooking required with beer and whisky on tap! Car parking a li… More
