Great stop in Kincraig along the Speyside Way!
Pros:

Bedroom was roomy, bed comfortable. Had access to a very large house and had access to multiple rooms. The lounge was huge and beautiful - got to watch FIFA World Cup on a huge screen! Tony was kind and responsive to emails - great host.

Cons:

Only minor inconveniences: no hand soap or towels in bath, shower could use a shelf for toiletries

Overall, it's a decent place for the price. It has a kitchen and dining area, which is convenient, and we found it p
Pros:

This place is located in a small, quiet, and scenic village with a river just a short walk away. The morning views were beautiful, and having access to a kitchen to cook our own meals was a nice bonus.

Cons:

There wasn't much to complain about. The only minor issue was that the single beds we booked felt a bit narrow, especially when turning over during sleep.

Pet Friendly and Interesting!
Pros:

I loved the notion of a veteran refuge. I can even get behind policing your own area when you leave. I also loved that our dogs got to meet and play with the resident dog, Cuda.

Cons:

Some folks don’t clean up after themselves. Maybe they don’t honor the honor system.

Pros:

Room was ample in size

Cons:

Cleanliness left much to be desired, I doubt the property does not possess a working hoover, and has not done so for some time

Needs a lot of work.
Pros:

The ethos behind this place is admirable, and the owner was really nice. The shared kitchen is well kitted out (although not clean, and we had no idea there was one, this needs to be listed more explicitly). Good location for walking Speyside Way, but please see other comments for down sides...

Cons:

Our room was not clean - there was dried toothpaste in the unwashed sink, and dirt on the shelves above it. The floor(s) didn't appear to have been hoovered. The shared facilities (toilet + shower) were in very poor condition: dirty, shower curtain too short so floor flooded when used, gaps in the laminate flooring. The old towels shed bits of fluff onto everything. The kitchen was not clean, and had things like paints and solvents and DIY kit in it. No clear system for food storage, so there were mouldy foods on shelves. Messy library space with vacuums and boxes everywhere. I hate to be so negative, and do appreciate what the place is aspiring to, but it was well below the standard of a hostel, especially for that price. We were really disappointed.
