Welcome

Strathspey Lodge is a stylish and cosy luxury self catering retreat, located in a peaceful setting within the hamlet of Duthil; near to Aviemore in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park.

The beautiful detached lodge offers four double bedrooms and a nursery, making it ideal for larger families. Bespoke furniture and artwork adorn the interiors, with stunning views over the Cairngorms the perfect backdrop for a theatrical view while relaxing in the open plan living space, while the wood-burning stove provides gentle heat to create a cosy ambience. In winter enjoy views of snow-capped mountain peaks and frozen lochs, and there are ample options for outdoor activities from skiing and snowboarding to hiking and wildlife spotting.
