With open views to the surrounding Highlands of Scotland, the log cabin is set within enchanting grounds.
Follow the path at the end of the garden and you will find yourself on the Speyside Way; a 50 mile footpath that leads from the Moray Firth, with its beautiful beaches and fishing villages, through to the stunning Grampian
For lovers of wildlife, look out for Pine Marten, Red Squirrel, Red and Roe Deer, Otters and up above, Ospreys and even Golden Eagle. A trip to the Scottish Highlands Wildlife Park is a real treat where you can see the UK’s only two Polar Bears and a range of both native and exotic animals ranging from Amur Tigers to beautiful Red Pandas.
Why not visit the RSPB Osprey Centre at Loch Garten to see fantastic views of these magnificent birds on the nest.
For art lovers, explore the Scottish Highland’s many galleries and if you want to try your hand at something new, the owner can arrange for you to throw a pot, create textural embroidery, learn to spin, dye wool, felt, knit and even make your own designer buttons!
Ben Rinnes View is located on the Whisky Trail of Speyside, the only malt whisky trail in the world! From here you can follow the trail through the Scottish countryside to seven working distilleries.
Finally, don’t forget a trip to the Moray Firth Coastline, rated one of the best coastal destinations in the world by National Geographic. Offering windswept cliffs, rocky shores, wide sandy bays, fishing villages and long sheltered inner firths, here you can follow in the footsteps of Kings, Romans, Vikings and even Dinosaurs. You may even see some of the biggest Bottlenose Dolphins in the world that live in these waters.

Guest Reviews
Quietly located surrounded by lovely views. The log cabin in immaculate
condition, like brand new, made of wood, very clean and can easily be
classified ass 5* accommodation.
It's got a very comfortable two double beds in two separate bedrooms,
spacious kitchen area with a dining table and six chairs. There's a
fridge/freezer, microwave with oven, kettle, egg boiler, and so on.
There's different dishes and glasses, cutlery, anything you need really.
Living room has got a log fire that has underlined the experience of
our stay at the log cabin and there's a patio door to veranda where you
can enjoy your breakfast while enjoying the nature or have a glass of
wine and watch the sunset. There's also a TV with sky but who'd watch
telly when you're in such a magnificent place. John who showed us around
was really helpful with any requests and gave us directions to
different places. I would recommend that place to anyone wanting to
relax and enjoy a nice quite place with a class.

We enjoyed a great short break in Ben Rinnes View and particularly
enjoyed our daily walks down to the River Spey and around the forest.
The cabin was lovely and warm and the log burner made it very cosy
indeed.

Ben Rinnes View does what it says on the tin – it truly gives you the
most stunning view of Ben Rinnes, which we climbed one beautiful sunny
morning.
Took quite a while but totally worth it for the fantastic
scenery, reaching right across to the Cairngorms.
Mr & Mrs S
A great place to tour Speyside and we feel we have only scratched the
surface of what there is to explore, so we will definitely be back to
stay in Ben Rinnes View, which was really homely.
The outlook from the
patio across the hills to Ben Rinnes was mesmerising.
