Located in Newtonmore and only 500 metres from Newtonmore Golf Club, Clune House B&B provides accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. The property features inner courtyard and quiet street views, and is less than 1 km from Highland Folk Museum. Outdoor seating allows guests to enjoy the fresh air. We were very happy with our stay at Clune House, Bryan and Laura were amazing hosts. The rooms very clean and the beds were very comfy. They offered fresh goats milk for the room, which was really delicious. Also the complimentary fudges they offered were some of the best ones we had in Scotland. The breakfast was also great, Laura is a really great cook. Plus having some filter coffee was a plus for us. The location is great if you are driving to Highlands from Edinburgh or if you want to explore the Cairngorms Park.

At the guest house, every unit is fitted with a wardrobe, a flat-screen TV, a private bathroom, bed linen and towels. The guest house offers some units with lake views, and all units are fitted with a coffee machine. At the guest house, all units are allergy-free. Guest house has an incredibly cosy, warm atmosphere. Everything was spotlessly clean, and interiors were very pretty. The best advantage of this place is Thomas, though. He is very nice and kind, welcomed us, showed us around, recommended attractions, roads, and things to do. He was always ready to help. Honestly, during our road trip through Scotland, I felt the Scottish atmosphere here the most, and it was our best stay. Ps. They serve the best breakfasts here!!
