Inside

The lodge is dog-friendly and offers 2 bedrooms (one ensuite), a family bathroom, and an open dining, kitchen and living area.  The wood-burning stove creates a warm welcoming space for the family to gather.  

The bedrooms both have a chest of drawers and there is a built in wardrobe in the twin room. 

The kitchen is well-equipped, featuring a fridge/freezer, hob, oven, dishwasher, combined washer dryer, microwave and plenty of cookware and utensils.

Outside

The garden is fenced all the way around with a lockable fence.  The garden can be accessed from the master room through sliding doors directly onto a decking.  The decking leads you up to the hot tub, situated to offer views over the Cairngorms. 

There is also a BBQ and an outdoor dining area for when the weather is behaving itself. 

A spacious entrance has plenty of storage for outdoor shoes and coats.

Kids

We know that often the first thing kids ask is “What’s the wifi code?” But there is so much on offer for kids that hopefully, you won’t need the code!

There are plenty of trails around for easy low-level mountain biking. A great family ride is to follow the Old Logging Way up to Loch Morlich. If you are feeling energetic you can then go all the way around Loch Morlich before heading back into Aviemore. Or you can head out the other way on Route 7 and do the low-level cycle right through to Boat of Garten. If the kids are a bit more adventurous on the bikes, then Laggan Wolftrax is half an hour south of Aviemore and offers some get downhill trails and a cute cafe in the car park for a well-earned cuppa and cake.

Other brilliant activities for kids include the zip line park just south of Aviemore and Treezone at Rothiemurchus. There is also tennis, horse riding, Segways, go-karting, indoor soft play and a whole bunch of activities to enjoy on the water at Loch Insh and Loch Morlich. Landmark Adventure Park, the Reindeer Centre and the Wildlife Park are always a big hit with the kids too. After all this, you’ll be ready to head back to the lodge to relax in the hot tub, get the BBQ on and start planning the next day’s adventures.

Dog Friendly

We love our dogs too, and well-behaved dogs are very welcome at Tawny Lodge Aviemore. There are so many walks right from the front door, down to the River Spey, over to the golf course or along the cycle path. There is a tap outside the kitchen door if you need to give the pooch a rinse after a muddy walk. We ask that no dogs are allowed in the bedrooms and that they are kept off the furniture. Dogs may not be left alone in the house unless securely crated. There is a charge of £20 per dog.

Aviemore

Aviemore is known as the playground of the Highlands. There is so much to do for all ages… and abilities. So whatever your favourite is…. zip lining, mountain biking, skiing, climbing, go-karting and quad biking, fishing, clay pigeon shooting, hill walking, sailing, gorge walking, lying on the beach… there will be something for you.

The family favourite Landmark Adventure Park is just outside Aviemore and well worth a visit with the whole family, and some of it is open all year round.

Another family favourite is visiting the Polar Bears and the other beautiful animals at the Wildlife Park. Even just taking the dog for a walk can be a discovery.

Explore the trails through the ancient Rothiemurchus forest, around the wonderful lochs and lochans, or into the foothills to discover a bothy or a breathtaking viewpoint.

There are walks for all levels, so you can go high and long, or gentle, low and easy… but you will not be disappointed.

Of course, after a long day of exploring, you will discover all the wonderful places to stop for coffee and cake, a pub lunch, or a long dinner with wine.

The surrounding towns and villages around Aviemore also have a wide variety of things to do and places to refuel.

We make sure to pass on all the information you need to make sure you get the best from your holiday in the highlands.
