Stunning 6 bedroom 6 bathroom country home with large private indoor heated swimming pool
Craig Alvah Lodge sets the standard, appointed with stunning Poggen Pohl kitchen, Villeroy and Boch and Lauren Allessi bathroom fittings. Floor to ceiling windows in the kitchen brings the outside in.
No stone was left unturned in the quest to create luxurious self-catering holiday accommodation. It sits in a unique location above the Bridge of Alvah and the famous gorge of the River Deveron. The property is secluded and remote yet only 2 miles from Banff on Scotland’s stunning Moray Firth coastline. It’s surrounded by beautiful woodland and countryside as far as the eye can see.
Picturesque and remote, the grounds are spectacular where you’ll find football goals, sunken trampoline and an incredible Rainbow systems play frame. There’s plenty to keep the kids entertained, and that’s before you explore the surrounding woodland which is home to red squirrels, rabbits, roe deer, woodpeckers, pine marten and more. Beautiful woodland and riverside walks start right from the door.
For indoor entertainment, there’s a Sonos sound system, table tennis table and pool table, 2 Sky TV boxes with full Sky package.
Craig Alvah Lodge will take your breath away.

Lovely house in beautiful location
We all enjoyed our stay for our Dad's 70th Birthday. The pool was used constantly!
The house was very clean, well equipped and beds comfortable. The grounds and surrounding areas to the property are beautiful.
Alan, the host was good at communicating and replied very quickly to any queries I had.
My only gripe, which didn't detract from the stay at all, would be plastic cups for the pool area and maybe some pictures and ornaments throughout the house to make it feel more homely.
Thank you for a great stay!

Wonderful mid-week break
Fantastic property with beautiful surroundings. The pool was great and the kids loved it! There was so much to keep us entertained at the property we didn’t go anywhere else. We spent our break swimming, trampolining, had a table tennis tournament, enjoyed a barbecue, the list goes on. The beds were all very comfortable and the rooms are very spacious. One gripe would be that two of the double rooms could do with black out curtains. Overall we had an amazing break and we will be back.
