About this property

Wildcat Lodge - Retreat Group

Perfectly nestled within the peaceful & tranquil area of Boat of Garten, Wildcat Lodge is a cosy retreat set within a beautiful courtyard location, ideal for a couple looking to explore the picturesque surroundings or the wider Scottish Highlands.

The luxurious wooden beams and ceilings add to the comfortable surroundings of Wildcat Lodge. The large king size bed will ensure a great night's sleep as you sink into the duvet and pillows, and the separate bathroom comprising toilet, wash basin and large low profile shower gives extra accessibility to those who need it. The cosy open plan living area with adjoining kitchen is the ideal space to sit, relax and snuggle up in the colder months with a roaring log burning fire whilst preparing some delicious meals using the amazing local Scottish ingredients on offer from nearby shops. Outside find a private walled garden and hot tub where you can enjoy watching the twinkling stars in the night sky whilst enjoying a well earned soak!

Situated less than half a mile away from Boat of Garten village, the idyllic surroundings are perfect for walkers and cyclists with endless miles of forest roads and trails to explore, or simply for those looking to pursue the plethora of outdoor activities or some relaxing downtime on offer within nearby Aviemore.

There is plenty to do in the surrounding area. Take a stroll around Boat of Garten village which provides a tranquil area with remarkable views, a restaurant, cafes, post office and shop.
Have some coffee and cake in one of the cafes and check out the beautiful Loch Vaa.

Why not jump on the Boat Of Garten Vintage Steam Train and take a ride to Aviemore? Aviemore is only a 10 minute drive away and here you can take part in a variety of outdoor activities including skiing on the Cairngorm Mountains, quad biking, zip lining and so much more! For those that are interested in checking out the wildlife, contact Speyside Wildlife to arrange bird watching or guided tours.

Truly fabulous

I loved my short stay at this lodge. It has everything you need and the hut tub was great for relaxing in a night. The little touches like a bottle of wine, eggs and milk were very much appreciated, although I had brought my own so didn’t use them. There’s great walks right from the doorstep and it was delightful to hear the steam strain pass by. Will definitely stay here again! I didn’t need to contact the property manager, that’s the reason for the average score.
