The Post House is a beautifully restored former Post Office built in 1909 in the lovely Highland town of Kingussie. It has been our family home since we bought and converted it in 1996. Now our family have grown and moved away, so we’ve moved into the converted outbuildings and given the house a makeover turning it into great self-catering holiday accommodation for large groups in the centre of Kingussie.

The massive 40 foot sitting room is great for parties – with its 12 foot long banqueting table, piano and wood burning stove. There’s a pool table that can be brought into the centre of the room, and the house is full of bright bold and original art. The six bedrooms comfortably accommodate 14 – 16 people. The large farmhouse style kitchen is a great gathering place with a door to the playroom/tv room which is packed with toys, games, films and books, so extended relaxed breakfasts with happy children nearby are a favourite way to start the day! The large, south facing courtyard is a joy on sunny days.

Perfectly placed in the centre of the Cairngorms National Park, it’s a brilliant base to enjoy walking, climbing, fishing, golfing, mountain biking, skiing, snow-boarding, sailing, canoeing and bird watching. There are great events happening throughout the year, and loads of places to visit as well.

Ideal for extended family gatherings, two families sharing, or large groups.
