Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Wonderful ,cozy and warm holiday cottage. Within easy walking distance of all amenities, yet in such a peaceful and scenic spot. Everything has been thought of for visitors, and we certainly hope to return and stay again.

This is a superb holiday cottage - spotlessly clean, well equipped, cozy and comfortable. It has excellent wifi and a huge selection of games / books/ local guides to enhance your holiday. Communications with the owner throughout were very good and Newtonmore is a lovely little village with some great local eateries and a good rail network. In fact as the cottage is only 10 minutes walk from the railway station it is possible to leave the car behind and arrive by train. Highly recommended.

Have stayed here three times now at Steading four. Always beautifully cleaned and well equipped. Downstairs loo has a boot rack in it which helps any wet shoes / boots dry out overnight. Washing machine, dishwasher, microwave etc; We like to burrow in and just forget the rest of the world. All furniture, towels and bedding are good quality. go far or just take a short drive for nice food. There is also a pub about 10 minutes walk away on the opposite side of the road, (first one you come to, you can't miss it) and the food and atmosphere are really nice. Cottages well recommended though with everything you need for your stay. Jaki & Tim, Lancashire

We stayed at Steading 5 for a few nights to attend a friend's Wedding in nearby Loch Insh and Aviemore respectively, and loved every second of the stay.

The cottage is pretty much perfect in every way and the amount of equipment, cutlery and crockery supplied is far and above what we could have expected. To then have a Freeview tv/dvd player, a Playstation, free wi-fi, countless books, dvd's and games and a welcome gift of local shortbread and a small bottle of Stags Breath Whisky Liqueur was the icing on the cake.

Sadly we had to cut our stay short but are already making plans to return and take in the beautiful and rugged countryside around the area.
