Ruthven House & Holiday Cottages

Ruthven House is set in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park beside Ruthven Barracks and the RSPB Insh Marshes Reserve. The town of Kingussie is a leisurely 15 minute walk away and lies 12 miles south of Aviemore. Kingussie train station has direct links to Perth, Edinburgh, Glasgow and the sleeper service to London. For the weary traveller we can arrange for you to be collected from the train station.

We offer guests 4 Star Bed and Breakfast accommodation in the main house and also have two cosy Self Catering Cottages, (Creag Bheag and Creag Dhubh, carefully converted from a former steading) with their own private parking and a large lawned garden to the front. Each cottage has patio doors leading out to a private seating area.

The cottages are normally available on a weekly let but we do from time to time offer shorter stays and if required guests can still take breakfast in the main house. Please just call us to check availability and pricing. Ruthven House and Holiday Cottages are strictly no smoking and sorry, but we do not accept pets. Internet access is available.
