This was our second visit to the Old Minister's House and we are planning on going back again. The house has recently been refurbished and is even more attractive than it was before. Breakfast was excellent, with a different choice of fruit in the mixed bowl each morning and I'd particularly recommend the homemade apple and plum compote which was... More

We only stayed for one night. We were greeted by the owner Shelagh and the smell of a peat fire in this lovely, tastefully decorated house. Our room was upstairs, and it was roomy, bright & spotless with an ensuite. Lots of nice touches like sherry in the room & homemade biscuits. There was a modern TV & DVD in... More

Nothing poor to say about our stay at the Old Minister's House. 1st class all the way. Shelagh was attentive and helpful. Although this was our 4th stay in Aviemore the restaurants she suggested we try, which we hadn't before, were very good. Breakfast was most enjoyable and cooked fresh to your order which meant it came out piping hot... More

Just had a fantastic nights stay. A warm welcome and a quick tour of the house. The room was spotless with a very comfy bed. A great selection of teas and coffee. The bathroom was also spotless and very modern. The icing on the cake was definitely the breakfast in the morning. A huge selection of choices. I only wish... More

We stayed at The Old Ministers House from 15th - 18th April this year. We did not know what to expect as most of the reviews are really positive on Trip Advisor but some are extremely critical. When we got there we found Shelagh to be very helpful and supportive - advising us where to go to eat (we didn't... More

I visited the Old Minister's House last weekend and stayed one night. I had previously visited about 9 years ago and thought it was nice then but Shelagh has made real improvements and the rooms are truly lovely. I booked online and knowing that it would be busy in Aviemore as it was Easter holidays I also booked dinner. I... More

I have been meaning to write a review of this lovely b&b for a while! We arrived on 2 January and were warmly greeted by the owner and checked in to our beautiful room. She asked us about our plans for dinner and we naively said we would just walk into town and see what we could find. She immediately... More

This B&B is really beautiful, stylish and clean, it has a 5 star hotel feel - if you only look at the decoration. First of all, the check-in time is only two hours, 4-6 pm which basically means that you would have to plan your whole day having this in mind. We made a mistake thinking that it wouldn´t be... More

Just had the most wonderful stay at The Old Ministers House. Shelagh is the best host we have had the pleasure to meet. The rooms are beautifully decorated, outstanding gourmet food and amazing views. Highly recommended for those who want something special and expect 5* service.
