Walking in a winter wonderland.....



These pictures were taken yesterday after another dusting of snow! The Steading holiday cottage is situated 1 1/2 miles from Grantown-on-Spey in the Scottish Highlands, on the edge of the Dava Moor. Our self catering holiday cottage is an excellent base for anyone wishing to visit local visitor attractions in the Scottish Highlands. These include the Scotland's Malt Whisky Trail, the Strathspey Steam Railway, the Cairngorm Funicular Railway, Loch Ness, the River Spey and the Loch Garten Osprey Centre.
Located on the northern edge of the Cairngorms National Park, our cottage is within easy access of these fantastic tourist attractions, and offers comfortable self catering accommodation with excellent facilities all year round. The surrounding countryside is some of the most picturesque in Scotland, and can be enjoyed by all - holidaymakers, walkers, winter sport lovers, birdwatchers and fishersman. Some of the highlights on the local social calendar include the Grantown-on-Spey New Year's Eve Street Party, the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival (29 April-3 May 2010) and the Grantown-on-Spey Highland Games (August). There are also regular sporting events in the area, including the Cairngorm Classic Cycle Sportive 50/100 mile road cycle challenge (12th June 2010), the Lairig Ghru Race (27th June 2010), and the Cairngorm Adventure Triathlon (Canoeing & Cycling) (18th September 2010).

We still have good availability for this year, so to book your holiday in the Scottish Highlands, please visit us at www.ballieward-steading.co.uk. We look forward to seeing you soon!!
