Description
The property was originally an oat mill built in 1749. It has been renovated to create a tranquil getaway luxury lodge for families and their pets. The renovation was done with care, allowing the property to remain peaceful and secluded.
The Maltings' indoor living space has original features and heritage colors. It is also furnished with sumptuous furnishings and a wood-burning stove for warmth. This is the perfect place to relax after a busy day out.
The oat grinder is now in the bar area, converted into a bar table. It is ideal for sharing malt with family and friends. Enjoy sampling the best of Speyside Whisky in very authentic surroundings. The dining area is a great space for entertaining and creating an atmospheric evening.
Outside, The Maltings has two acres of garden offering plenty of places to explore, relax, and enjoy the fresh air. You can enjoy a meal outdoors in the dedicated outdoor dining area. You can retreat to the recently renovated log cabin summerhouse. This is a great spot for a peaceful break or for the kids to use their imaginations.
The Maltings is situated in a valley. It is surrounded by Great Caledonian Pine forests. There are plenty of trails and walks for walkers and cyclists.
The luxury hot tub is the real highlight. You can soak up the beautiful views and enjoy the ever-changing Scottish weather at any time of day.
The lodge has four bedrooms, including a king-size room with en-suite, a king-size, a double, and a twin. There are also two bathrooms, a cloakroom WC, and a utility room with washing and drying facilities. Stair gates, a games area, and board games are also provided to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Great spaces for all generations of the family.
Parents can provide their children with a sofa bed in the games area. It is located close to the upstairs double room.

We really love staying at the Maltings, it's a really peaceful remote location but not too far from Nethy Bridge or Grantown. The house itself has lots of interesting features and is immaculate. The garden is huge and a great place to spot wildlife. see more
We really love staying at the Maltings, it's a really peaceful remote location but not too far from Nethy Bridge or Grantown. The house itself has lots of interesting features and is immaculate. The garden is huge and a great place to spot wildlife. We even had an owl swoop down over the garden while we were in the hot tub, amazing sight!

Parts of the decking need repairing - it has started to rot at the top of the steps. My wife nearly tripped until we put something over it. Other than that everything was perfect.

It was also well located for activities - we went skiing at Cairngorm moutain (about a 40 min drive) and walking in Abernethy forest. Would happily recommend!

Details of where the bins are located was very unclear and we spent the first fews days of our stay trying to locate them. Eventually we had to contact igloo to give us specific details.

We had a great stay the cottage is gorgeous, so cosy and a lovely space to relax. Loved the hot tub and enclosed garden. Our only (minor) issue was discovering that using the oven tripped the electrics, making dinners hard to sort. Nick was responsive when we messaged about this, although this issue was not resolved whilst we were there hopefully fixed for future guests. Stove top was fine. Other than that, we love the cottage and had a wonderful time - would definitely stay again!

A very enjoyable stay, each room was very nicely decorated and we loved spending time upstairs by the fire! Underfloor heating was a godsend in the colder months! Great big enclosed garden for the dogs to run around in also!

wonderful place, magic, in the middle of forest, stylish, clean, full equipped very quiet. More beautiful than what pictures show, definitely. Nethy Bridge is such a beautiful town!!! the arrival was at night so it took us some extra time to understand how to get there, regarding that the original way is now closed. we also had a problem with the washing machine, nick was very available to help although the problem was finally not solved. In spite of this, the vacation was a dream and the place is recommendable 100%!

The snow and ice made our journey to and from the house a bit interesting but despite the weather the house was always cosy and warm. We would happily stay again!

We very much enjoyed staying at The Maltings - the building is full of character and very homely. The hot tub was great and the slippers and robes provided. It is very peaceful in a rural location, but near to attractions (slightly tricky to find from just the postcode provided). Would recommend staying here, thank you Nick!
