Great week

Great week, third time coming back to the same property says it all. Location is fantastic with lots to do far all ages. However some refreshing to the property wouldn’t go amiss to keep it to the standard expectations for the price.

Family birthday weekend

The house suited our needs as a birthday celebration with all the family, . Good points - space, location , hot tub Negative points - bbq cooking rack not clean, freezer not cleaned out , iced up icecube trays and food in the bottom of it . Stained duvet and pillow in one of the rooms. It’s says enclosed garden but there is no gate on it and it doesn’t mention that there is a pond in the garden. For what you pay should not be expected to put out rubbish, strip beds and make sure dishwasher is empty. It took away the enjoyed of the family break.

Fantastic Lodge with spectacular view!

Fantastic Lodge which was just perfect for all our family . Safe for the grandchildren, dog and my Mother in her 80’s. Has everything you could want with spectacular views of the Cairngorms as an additional bonus. Bedrooms spacious and comfortable. It truly is a special lodge . We have used Great North Lodges before and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them . Black Grouse Lodge is an absolute gem - hope to be back again in the future.

Excellent stay

The lodge exceeded expectations. We were celebrating numerous events that we as a family had experienced this year. There was eight of us and a dog. Lots of space for us all without getting in each others way. Rooms spacious, very well equipped Lodge, met all our needs and more. Grandson especially happy with fussball and x box! We all enjoyed the hot tub, first time for me. Overall an amazing stay. Thanks for wine and shortbread

Lovely repeat stay

Second year I have stayed in BGL with friends and already booked for next year We go to relax, catch up and enjoy the spacious house and hot tub. Great that 3 of the 4 bedrooms are en suites which saves any queues!!. House lovely and warm, especially when log fire lit Smart TV to watch Xmas movies via Netflix etc. Would have been nice to have some Xmas decorations up. Maybe next year Car required if you want to get around or replenish your groceries at Tesco. Overall perfect stay ❤️

Peaceful location, stunning views

The Black Grouse was perfect for our large family gathering to celebrate a special birthday, the lodge is very spacious with ample kitchen supplies, outdoor and indoor seating/dining. The only disappointing aspect was that it advertises dog friendly however it is not an enclosed garden and the pond is very tempting for dogs on a hot day! However walks from the door are plentiful and green through woodlands within walking distance to the village. We would certainly recommend a stay here and hope to return next year.

Great stay

Spent a lovely 3 nights at BGL in December 2023 with 5 friends. Great house with lovely view from rear of property of Cairngorms. House has everything you need. Had an issue with TV in lounge and a bedroom radiator but maintenance attended to it within 1 hour of calling them. Hot tub was fabulous and great to relax and chat with friends. Recommend take extra logs for fire if using every night. Enjoyed our stay so much we have booked again for this year

Staying late September 2024

The lodge is spacious and comfortable in all areas and more than enough room for six adults an three children. However we found that relaxing at the large kitchen table in comfort made moving into the huge lounge redundant. The gardens are well kept and the hot tub is an added attraction to those wishing to relax there. Small complaints: One of the range ovens is unusable for cooking as the door does not close - only mentioned just prior to arrival - and, during our stay, the whole range tripped on a number of occasions requiring a change in our eating plans. Directions given prior to arrival could be better as all three cars had difficulty in finding the lodge All in all - we had a wonderful stay and hope to come back again

Excellent location

The property was in a good location and very spacious, easily accommodating a large group. Views were excellent and there was a big garden although it wasn't fully enclosed as states in the description. The kitchen was reasonable stocked with equipment and had 2 fridges and a small freezer. We had a few issues with the hot water and shower temperatures were variable between rooms. The main disappointment was the standard of housekeeping. While it appeared generally clean there were a few issues such as dirty BBQ grill, food left in the freezer, dirty washbasin plug hole and lack of protective cover over a stained mattress in one room (hopefully an oversight on this occasion). Assuming the housekeeping improved I would happily recommend the property to others

Highly Recommend

We recently had a big family get together here, and what a fantastic lodge this is. Clean, spacious and excellent facilities. Even with so many of us, we had ample space. Just a few minutes from the centre of Aviemore made this the perfect base for us to travel out doing Loch walks, quad biking, Watersports and horse treks. It was great to come back and ease our tired bones in the hot tub and have a BBQ. Our little girl was also thrilled to see the trampoline in the front garden! The only thing I’d say is that the garden isn’t enclosed so if you’re bringing dogs you either need to stay outside with them or fashion a long leash which can be attached to something to let them wander. This was easily done & no problem for us. All in all, an awesome holiday & we plan to return as soon as we can.

Fabulous family holiday house

We stayed for 7 nights with our two daughters, their husbands and babies aged 17 and 10months. The house was perfect for our group. The large carpeted sitting room, with comfortable sofas was ideal for babies at the crawling and starting to walk stage. Stunning views and the excellent hot tub made it a lovely place to relax and the close proximity to the Aviemore Orbital path made it great for walks. Beds were very comfortable and apart from the one oven door being out of order the kitchen was ideal. On one cool evening we enjoyed the use of the living room fire and plenty of wood supplied. The bathrooms were beautifully fitted but potential room for improvement would be, maintaining the grass and garden area more, better lighting in the living room and replacing the living room carpet which was worn in places. That said it is somewhere we would return to. The weather was wonderful which helped to make this a really enjoyable experience.

Stunning property in heart of Aviemore

This is a stunning and secluded home with plenty space for the entire family located in the heart of Aviemore. It has amazing views towards the Cairngorms, which keep everyone in awe as the weather changes. The housekeeping staff were extremely helpful and friendly. We called for extra bedding and someone was at the door half an hour later with additional bedding and offered to law the bed up for us. We also had an issue with the tumble drier and again we had someone out that day to look at it. The house has many extras for keeping everyone happy with hot tub and a trampoline and Xbox for the kids. This is an amazing property located on the Aviemore circular which is fab for walking and cycling. A beautiful home to base a stay from with all local amenities within walking distance and other attractions such as Landmark and Wildlife park only 10-15 minutes drive. Thoroughly recommend BGL to all.

A Week With Family

We had a fantastic week at Black Grouse. We are a party of 6 adults and 2 kids, the house has plenty of space for everyone, with a large lounge as well as seating areas around the house and a large dining table which can easily seat 12. The bedrooms were comfortable and the bathrooms had great showers. The kitchen is well equipped with a range style cooker but one oven door didn't shut properly and the fridge freezer is quite small for the number of people that the house can hold, there is another small fridge but a big fridge freezer would be a great addition. The hot tub was a favourite for everyone, although the cover clips need renewed. We were there during Storm Kathleen and the cover blew off and the tub got a lot of debris in it. The maintenance came the next day and changed the water so top marks to them. The house is about a 15 minute walk to Aviemore and is situated beside the Aviemore Circular so you can walk that route if you want to avoid the road. Loads to do in the area we done quad bikes, tubing, wildlife park and visited Loch Morlich. We really enjoyed our stay and already booked for next year before we left.

Great property but needing some attention to bring it back to the standard advertised.

This was our first time booking with Great North Lodges and unfortunately we have been left feeling disappointed in Black Grouse Lodge. It's a beautiful property in an excellent location with stunning views across to the Cairngorms and a private back garden. However, we did not feel the housekeeping was to the standard it should be. We found blueberries on the floor in the utility room on arrival, food left in the freezer, countless dirty dishes/glasses in the cupboards, leaking radiator in the kitchen. The living room curtains and pole fell on top of us when we tried to close the curtains at night as it was not secured and the carpet in the living room was threadbare. Outside there was a couple of sleepers broken/ missing on the bridge which left a gaping hole through to the river below. Other than a plant pot, there was nothing at all to stop people, children or dogs from potentially stepping on this which we considered to be incredibly dangerous. We found the property to be 'a bit tired' and in need of some work and attention to bring it back up to the standard advertised on GNL website.

Family Break

Black Grouse is great accommodation for families, with plenty of social spaces and lovely bedrooms with en-suites. The hot tub and garden have fantastic views of the Cairngorms and are private. We are returning customers and have booked again as we really enjoy our time here. A couple of improvements that would make the experience even better would be a bigger fridge freezer and a smart tv in the lounge.

Girls weekend away

We had an amazing 3 night stay at Blackgrouse lodge. The house is stunning and the lodge has a very homely feel to it and everything has been thought through. The hot tub was lovely and the views of the cairngorms is stunning. The lodge was very clean upon arrival minus the pull out bed in the bedroom for 4. All other bedrooms ans bathrooms are very modern and of high quality. Any issues we had were dealt with quickly. There does however appear to be rats nesting under the outdoor decking which I have reported to maintenance which could be a problem for the summer. We couldn't seem to get the living room door to open however otherwise we had an amazing stay and will be back. We didn't want to leave.

Relaxing stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Black Grouse Lodge the house had everything to cater for all ages a trampoline, hot tub, a good variety of board games. The house was beautifully situated, the views with a morning coffee from the balcony were simply breathtaking! It was a short walk into Aviemore and a short drive to gorgeous walks. The kitchen was well equipped and everything was clean and well organised. We will definitely return!

Relaxing

Great lodge but the floorboards upstairs are super creeky to a point that everyone wakes up if you’re using the bathroom in the middle of the night. Robes and slippers are a lovely touch

Great property with excellent views

Loved our stay here, fabulous property, only issue was several old cobwebs and dust in areas that were obviously being overlooked when cleaning and the vacuum cleaner wasn’t leaving the carpets clean. The lounge carpet wasn’t clean when we arrived and after several attempts to clean it ourselves there was still dog hair from previous occupants left on the carpet. Deep clean and new vacuum capable of picking up dog hair recommend.

Extra cleaning needed

This was our second stay at Black Grouse, the first being 7years previous. I noticed this time that cleanliness was poorer than before. On arrival the front door needed cleaning and sweeping, there were leaves and dust about the entrance way. Inside All the windows needed cleaning. Both verandas were dusty needing mopped and wiped down etc. The grass outside was quite long, it was cut during our stay but I feel this should have been done before people arrived. The rooms and bathrooms were clean but the kitchen drainer sink was brown, I bought bleach and it cleaned it up. I wouldn't want to.put people off going its a lovely lodge but I do feel extra care and attention is needed to cleaning. After all we pay a lot of money to stay there. Also would like to make a suggestion of getting a handrail made for the stairs at the patio doors. One our family had poor balance and needed help to go up and down as theres nothing to hold onto.

Great house, great week

Black Grouse Lodge ideal for large family group. Lovely garden. Well-equipped kitchen. Superb bathrooms. Only issue the pet hairs in the carpets. You could easily remedy this by asking folk to keep pets to wooden floor areas downstairs and away from sitting room. We're not pet owners or lovers! There was a lot of sneezing!
