Badaguish Forest Lodges - Aviemore

Les L.

booked for a family of 4, it was surprisingly spacious inside and with comfortable bed matresses. a lots of activities around and within the area. the facilities are always kept clean, kudos to the staff! the kids enjoyed our stay in the eco pod, and begging for longer stay for the next holiday. see you again next year! 😊

I came with my 2 young sons to stay for 2 nights. We were welcomed by a lovely friendly lady on reception who pointed out where the facilities were etc and told us to go and enjoy ourselves. We had the best time, my boys are keen mountain bikers and the bike park was a hit. The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful and our wee pod had all that we needed. We will 100% be back!

Unfortunately, the reality was very different from the pictures. The pods looked very dated, and the mattress was old and worn out. The electricity system was confusing — we were advised to buy two cards for two nights, but we ended up using only £0.40 from the first one.

The toilets were incredibly dirty and in terrible condition — they were not cleaned at all during our 3-day, 2-night stay. The kitchen had a strong unpleasant smell, was extremely outdated, and had badly rusted electrical outlets.

The only positive aspect was the restaurant — the food was excellent and the staff very welcoming.

We will definitely not return and cannot recommend this place to anyone.

We love it here, it's relaxed and perfect for allowing the kids some freedom in the outdoors and kids and younger teens are both occupied. Definitely bring bikes. The new cafe on site is super! We stayed in pod, great value for family of 5.

This place was beautiful!, I stayed with my Fèis Band ant anround early November 2024 and it was an amazing experience, the public were so nice when I was at the Speyside Café.

The location was stunning as they had the lovely forestry surrounding us, we were up the Cairngorms and at the nearby Loch and the experience was such a success that I asked the band if they were to do to this again, would we stay again or go elsewhere and everyone agreed they would stay here.

The rooms were an amazing location as we stayed in Squirrel Lodge 1 and the rooms were super tidy, not a bug or stain in sight and for only three days, it was the most fun I had had in a month.

Thank you everyone at Badaguish!

Home from a fantastic 3 nights!! Stayed in an eco pod (#2) with our 5 year old.|Lovely lady on check in, super informative. The setting is beautiful.|Facilities were great, the pods had everything we needed and felt surprisingly roomy! Lovely picnic area at the front for our son to run around and for us to enjoy a bbq. |Toilets and showers were clean and in a great area. We felt very safe, and even though the site was fully booked, it never felt busy - very peaceful.|The bike park on site was a huge hit and the site itself was perfect to jump on the bikes and head to loch morlich, Rothiemurchus, Aviemore and more! |We would absolutely come back - hopefully in July!! |Thank you for a lovely stay!
