Newtonmore is a relatively large village situated on the banks of the River Spey bang smack in the middle of the United Kingdom's largest National Park, the Cairngorms National Park. There lots of both old and new shops in the village to browse in and a good helping of country pubs dotted around too. Walkers will be happy to note that there is a wonderful 7-mile circular walking route called the Wildcat Trail, which runs around the village and takes in popular spots like the River Spey. Don't be surprised if you think you're having deja vu as you explore the village – it was used as the location for filming the hit BBC TV show 'Monarch of the Glen!
