"Because I've brought my bike with me, I was glad to be allowed to take it to the room. Sadly no breakfast available due to renovation of the property. Self service with key storage was very useful! I admire that a friendly cat is at your service (if you wish). 😻 Nice hotel in scottish style, quiet and only 5min walk to the center of Kingussie, where there is a coop, a nice café and several restaurants. I'd liked to stay at the Columba House and recommend it especially for outdoor activities like hiking and cycling."
