Stay in a Woodland Lodge in Aviemore

Macdonald Hotels has 18 luxurious and spacious lodges in the heart of Aviemore nestled inside a Caledonian pine forest.
Each lodge provides all the home comforts you could possibly need and can accommodate between 4 and 6 guests.

Aviemore is in the Cairngorms National Park and is popular for visitors seeking snow sports throughout the Winter months and then in the Spring, Summer and Autumn the beautiful pine forests and mountain trials attract hill walkers and cyclists. Whichever season you choose to visit in you are guaranteed a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and busy of city life and quite magical at Christmas.

​Staying in the Aviemore Lodges provides the perfect balance between the convenience of a hotels catering and amenities and as much self catering independence and privacy as you like.
