The scent of pines drifts down from the Cairngorms, and from Clune House you can watch the evening light stretch across the Spey Valley like nothing else matters.
This is proper Highland hospitality — a guest house with camping pods tucked into the grounds for those who want something between canvas and a four-poster. It suits walkers tackling the Monadhliath, couples after a Cairngorms base without the fuss of tent pegs, or anyone chasing that mountain-air sleep but glad of a solid roof. Newtonmore sits right on the edge of serious hill country, with the Highland Folk Museum and the Wildcat Trail close by if the weather turns.
Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so ask ahead about what's included with the pods versus the guest house rooms. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, and campfires need checking on arrival — the hosts will steer you right. Open all year, which in this corner of the Highlands means midges in summer, snow-dusted mornings in winter, and that deep, settled quiet you only get this far north.
