Baddengorm Lodge - a lodge that sleeps 10 guests in 5 bedrooms

Lovely place to enjoy a rural get away, great views. The grounds are lovely, no luck luring much wildlife into sight. Would have been nice to have a proper path around the grounds. Beds were comfortable and sound didn't penetrate into bedrooms so everyone got to stick to their own sleep schedules. The large place was warm and comfortable. Kitchen had two great ovens but little cupboard or counter space which made preparing food for a large group tricky. Plenty of seating options in the living space. Washing facilities good, though the hot water took quite a while to come through, there was enough for all of us. We would certainly consider booking again for a family gathering.

The family spent a highly enjoyable week during early November at stunning Baddengorm Lodge. The property is very spacious, with many distinctive touches, comfortable and well equipped. The setting in particular was just beautiful and has very private grounds with woodland, stream and even its own Lochan. One week was simply not long enough to enjoy all that the property and surrounding area has to offer.

We gathered as a family to celebrate grandad’s 80th and found everything we wanted. Beautiful surroundings, plenty space and lots to occupy us even without travelling elsewhere. Table tennis, snooker and table football in the brilliant games room. TV, board games etc inside and a spacious cooking and dining area for celebratory meal (and cake!). The large windows in all the rooms meant lovely views in all directions.

We had a fabulous family week away at this idyllic house. Great location for access to the surrounding area and the beautiful walks in an around Aviemore and Boat of Garten. The house is secluded but a short drive from Aviemore and everything you may need. House is well stocked and has a super relaxing feel from the minute you walk in the door. We had great weather so got great use of the grounds and our dog loved the large area to explore! Would highly recommend this excellent property and the housekeeper who was very quick in responding to any queries that we had.

Another visit to Baddengorm and another great holiday. We love the location and surroundings. The house is great and suits our requirements and those of our friends. The house is in need of a wee bit of TLC, such as a coat of paint and the 'L' shaped sofa is not the comfiest. These are minor moans. We celebrated our 40th Anniversary with friends and had a Piper (Jason Faulkner) play for us. To hear the pipes as he approached the house down the drive was so atmospheric. It was a great place to celebrate our special occasion. A special shout out to the 'House Keeper' for maintaining and keeping such a large property in such excellent condition and so clean. So good we have booked our return already!

Very relaxing and very worthwhile choice. The stay was awesome and allowed our families to catch up after many years. Highly likely we will be back.

Our family of 10, myself hubby, our 2 sons their wives and our 4 grandchildren had a fabulous stay Friday 27th to 30th June at Baddengorm Estate. A beautiful property and grounds, so peaceful with plenty of space for us all to enjoy and relax. We enjoyed a walk up to the swing followed by a walk back down the river. Watching the birds and squirrels feeding and running about was great lots of videos and photos taken. We painted stones and added them to a little collection under the decking. We enjoyed a bbq and toasted marshmallows at the fire pit. A great time was had in the games room lots of laughter and fun trying to see who was best at table tennis. The house itself was amazing plenty of space if we all wanted to have a quiet moment to ourselves or join in a family game. I loved being able to look out the patio doors on the bedroom each morning and see the red squirrels running along the decking and onto the lawn. My daughter-in-laws and I had our morning yoga session on the lawn with the sounds of the stream running and the birds chirping it was so relaxing. A definite 10 out of 10 experience. We would recommend a holiday at Baddengorm.

The wonder that is Baddengorm. What a setting, what a great place for our stay in June and the weather behaved as well! Baddengorm is a wonderful property surrounded by Scots pines with a lovely burn bubbling through the grounds. Isolated, but not far from civilisation or the wonderful Cairngorms. A great place to relax and enjoy the company of good friends. We had a great stay. Add in the excellent meals from Speyside Kitchen and the holiday was perfect.

Wonderful location, quiet and secluded, but close to the village. We were a group of 5 couples celebrating 50 years of friendship and had a great time. The house is spacious and well equipped, and with so many windows you felt part of the landscape. Great place for birdwatching and we had the pleasure of the company of a red squirrel who came to one of the bird feeders in the morning! We had hoped to have a barbecue but couldn't find instructions or utensils but that is a minor quibble, and the only other point to make is that the sign post leading to the property could be a bit more noticeable, all 5 cars heading there missed it!! Highly recommend this holiday retreat.

Our families had a magical time at Badengorm. The location is stunning and our grandchildren had freedom to explore and play by the burn and also space within the lodge to do their own thing. The games room is a bonus...the snooker table was well used by the adults. However as other reviewers have mentioned space is limited in the kitchen area and we found a blackened pan on arrival. We loved Badengorm but the sofas were not comfy!!! As a family of 10...everyone asked me to mention the seating. We only used them of an evening as there is so much to see and do in this superb setting...however...comfort is everything! Making more use of the utility room...perhaps a basin to wash more dishes would be helpful? We ran out of space in the kitchen area for preparation etc. Thankyou for sharing your amazing home.
