Everything seemed really new, or just very nice and clean! Very comfy, good wifi, great location in the Cairngorms, and we really liked that there was a fridge (not often seen in Scottish hotels for some reason).

The hotel is in an old building but beautifully renovated. The rooms are clean, nice and refreshingly designed and decorated, the shower is large and spacious and the bed is really comfortable and big, we had a great night sleep. Close to the beautiful town of Aviemore where you can find restaurants, Cafe’s, stores and supermarkets. We stayed for one night only but could stay much longer! Very recommended!

Tracey and Steve are impeccable hosts. We loved chatting with them. They gave us great and thoughtful tips about the area and what to do there. Another shining star in our stay was the breakfast - absolutely scrumptious. Definitely try the porridge!

This was a perfect stay. I wish it was longer. Great location for what we needed. The staff and owners were incredibly friendly and knew a lot about the area. The home is well appointed but kept in a very traditional manner, very clean, and beds comfortable. The dinner we had was the best food we had while visiting Scotland. We will definitely be back.

This little gem in the middle of Scotland ❤️ the rooms are just as you would imagine, cosy, clean and with the small town feel. There is a restaurant and a pub with very attentive staff. The food is good at both as is also the breakfast they serve. Definitely recommened while you are in town also the visit to Blair Atholl castle and gardens.

    We were booked for 2 nights but as soon as we arrived to our chalet we booked another 3 nights! Its like home away home! The chalet is so comfortable, cosy, warm. The whole resort is in a great location as Aviemore is just a wonderful little town. Scenery (for me as a foreigner from a flat country) absolutely gorgeous. Lots to do as a family and the areas roads and viewpoints are a must! Great place for a family holiday!

    Excellent site. The pod was perfect with a fridge, kettle and microwave. Site was immaculate. The toilet block and shower rooms were very well kept. There are loads of activities on and off site for families or individuals do do. We were sorry that we were only staying one night. This site is so good that a longer stay is warranted to see and do everything.

    The chalet was lovely, comfortable and well-equipped and the outdoor hot tub and view of the lake were fantastic. We walked in the on-site woods and our granddaughter loved the huge playgrounds. It was too cold (for us) to swim but the lake and its facilities looked great.

    Aviemore has a great buzz about it – a proper gateway to the Cairngorms with a strong tourist vibe that makes it feel lively year-round. The high street is packed with outdoor shops, from big names like Ellis Brigham and Tiso to smaller independents, so whether you’re after hiking boots, ski gear or a new waterproof, you’re well catered for. There’s also a good mix of cafés, pubs and restaurants, which keeps the place welcoming after a day outdoors. It’s the kind of town where you instantly feel in “holiday mode,” with a steady flow of visitors giving it energy without losing its Highland charm.

    It was a stopover for us. If I had known more about the region we would have orranged an extra night. We did do a tour of the Dalwhinnie Distillery on our way south which was great. Make a booking - we were lucky as we hadn't made a one but there was two extra spots. Loved the Duke of Gordon hotel. So very old school and so beautiful. Great value for money.

    Very disappointing stay. Staff were rude and unhelpful - especially at breakfast. Dining staff Bella’s behaviour was shockingly unprofessional and not acceptable. Dirty, smelly rooms, one with a broken bed. Complaints were brushed off with a simple “sorry.” We booked 4 rooms for family visiting from Canada and deeply regret choosing this hotel. Definitely not worth the 4-star rating.

    Nestled amongst the mountains with paths and tracks leading all over what’s not to like? Sadly, the general facilities here have gone. No shop for example. One place did have a sign out for coffee, but there could be an opportunity here for someone. Worth climbing up the Cateran Trail heading south to get stunning views looking down on the village. Also visit the stone circle, old bridge and the church. Just soak up the atmosphere!
