    I thought I'd reviewed this, but when I went to send the link on to a friend found that I'd…read moreforgotten to even add it to Yelp. Shocking! We visited Aviemore back in June and a friend suggested we go here. A bakery within a nursery in the Highlands? Sounded interesting to me! It was pretty easy to find from Aviemore, about a 10 minute drive. When we arrived there was plenty of parking on the left hand side of the road, opposite the entrance. To get to the bakery (called The Potting Shed) you walk through a beautiful nursery, the tea rooms are at the back. You can sit in the main tea room area or in a side room where you can eat cake and take in a spot of birdwatching as well. Sadly this area was full but there was plenty of seats for us in the tea room. As we sat down, the staff laid out the cakes on the counter (they keep them in the fridge until customers come in). Honestly, they laid out about 10 cakes on the counter for us to drool over (not literally). We all took it in turns picking out a piece of cake and ordering tea, and the treats were quickly delivered to us. They even had a good range of gluten free selections and the cake itself was heavenly. This was a really lovely stop off in the Highlands and I would highly recommend it if you're anywhere in the area.

    Today was my 2nd trip to The Potting Shed - a hidden gem of a tearoom within Inshriach Nursery,…read moreabout 5 miles out from Aviemore. This place has been named as one of Britain's Top 10 cake shops by the well respected Dan Lepard! Last time I was here I was pregnant and suffering with hypermesis gravidarium (extreme morning sickness), and wasn't up to sampling any cake. However I thoroughly enjoyed watching the red squirrels and the birds from the viewing area which overlooks the wildlife feeding station. Today I finally got to sample some cake. There was a huge variety of cakes on offer. I plumped for plain old Chocolate Cake. On tasting, this cake was far from plain - it was deliciously light and moist, not too rich and had the most beautiful shiny chocolate glaze on top, finished off with a dollop of cream. I could have eaten this twice! I may have to fit in another visit before we head back to Glasgow at the end of the week!

    Travelling over the mountain road into Banchory, this place was a sight for sore eyes! The amazing…read moreFeugh Falls runs into the Dee river, and is broken up by a collection of grey and black boulders, it's really stunning. As you drive over the little single track stone bridge, a little cottage like tea room appears, perched on the bank of the river. It obviously had some extensions added over the years, but they are tastefully done and in keeping with the feel of the building. They don't have much parking but we found a spot and took a little wander through their garden to enter the building. On entering we were a tad unsure as to where to go. They also do weddings and reception parties, so there is a lot of announcements about them, but none for a cafe. Walking through into a large dining area, which was empty, I spied a busy cafe area further to the back. When I got to the serving area the lady was very apologetic for not being there to meet us. She seated us in the quiet dining area as we weren't ordering a full lunch, and it started filling up pretty quickly. Hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows (no chai lattes!) and fruit scones with real cream, jam and butter. They came quite promptly, but we were happy to wait as there was a lovely terrace which looked onto the river. Very peaceful and atmospheric. The hot chocolate was nice. A little rich for my taste, but very nice. The scone was beautiful, and the cream delicious. It's not the cheapest place, but considering it is Outside a tiny village, a tourist trap due to the river, and up in Aberdeenshire, I don't think it was too bad. £12 for 2 hot chocolates and 2 scones with all the trimmings. I'll definitely be popping in for another visit next time I am up visiting my friend.

    Beautiful setting but that is as far as it goes…read more Visited twice (will not visit a third time) and both times encountered very rude staff who really could do with some training in customer service. The food is over priced and over cooked and not worth what they charge. Big disappointment
