We went to ski in the Cairngorms so the location was perfect only 20min away. The lodge was convenient after hours too as it was on the outskirts of Aviemore with plenty of places to enjoy a drink or dinner and supermarkets to stock up the fridge for breakfasts in our accommodation. The second bedroom was a little small for a second couple but we had plenty of communal space to relax inside. We didn't need the conservatory which i am sure in the summer months would be inviting but a bit chilly in January with snow outside. The staff we encountered were all extremely helpful and the inclusive log delivery service was a unexpected. All in all terrific value and above expectiations.

Decent family weekend away
Family chalets are decent, just a bit small if you have numbers. Swimming pool is great and the food for adults is really nice. The options for children could be better. Staff were friendly but some bar staff a bit useless.

Our chalet did exactly what we needed it to do. One suggestion for improvement would be to include full sized towels - it's rather difficult to dry yourself with a hand towel.

Nice place but can improve
We stayed for 3 nights as a family of 4 + dog in one of the apartments by the golf course. Location wise it was good as we could walk the dog by the golf course and there were shops and takeaways within 5 mins drive. Inside the room was in good condition and relatively comfortable with a few exceptions 1) not enough plates and glasses for a family of 4 2) shower pressure was bad 3) sofa bed mattress was passed it’s best and uncomfortable 4) beds weren’t clean with human hairs on mattress, pillows and sheets (hotel then provided clean bedding). They have a nice pool and a restaurant but we didn’t get to try it as staffing was low so they couldn’t open. Staff are friendly and helpful when available but we couldn’t get anyone to pickup phone after 9pm. Overall we were happy with our stay but would likely try another b&b or hotel next time we visit to see what else is out there.

I liked where the accommodation was, there is plenty to do and all near by. The accommodation itself is very over priced for a very out dated chalet. There wasn’t a heater in the bedroom where the kids stay in so room was very cold. Carpet is old and stained throughout and chair was wet when we arrived. Bin bags full of the last people’s rubbish was left outside the door and their dirty bedsheets in porch area that hadn’t been taken away before our check in time. Cooking utensils etc were old and stained and felt like u didn’t want to use them because they looked dirty. Only one bath towel was provided for 4 people I heard other people complain to reception that they had no towels for their accommodation either. There was no towels provided for swimming 3 days in a row that we went but they used the same excuse each day that there had been a power cut. When we arrived nobody was in reception I waited about 5 mins before somebody tried to help with my enquires but said he couldn’t it turned out he was the maintenance guy that would explain why when I tried to ring allday the day before arriving nobody answered the phone as there was numerous occasions throughout our stay that reception was unattended. The Jacuzzi was out of service throughout our 4 night stay. They never had any entertainment information and said I would have to go back later or the next day so that they could get some printed off. I would actually ask for a refund if I thought I’d any chance of getting one.
