We had a nice stay but the property is extremely dated, the one we stayed in (Spey 15) needs new mattresses and carpets, the pool to cold for children but we were able to use the sister resort for free which was great as we stayed their previously. The electricity is not included in the price!!! Expedia should communicate that. Staff were friendly and helpful it’s just a shame the Macdonalds aren’t updating it. :/

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.
