"We had an amazing stay in Aviemore! The motel is a little older, but everything was spotlessly clean, well maintained, and you can tell they’ve done a great job keeping it updated. The amenities were excellent, and the location was absolutely beautiful and so convenient for exploring the area. Everything we needed was right there, and we felt very comfortable throughout our stay. We would definitely stay here again and would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Aviemore!"

"Great location - not cheap, but it’s well appointed. We enjoyed our stay and will book again. I won’t bother with “the good” stuff because that’s already good, so to the improvement required….. House not clean enough. Soap and debris under taps , dust in lots of corners - better cleaner required. Not enough logs left for the stay. Log burner not adjustable and needs looking at as it incinerates only . Broken shelves in fridge. That’s it."

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for a week in July 2026 with grandparents and three family groups, we all had plenty of room and the annex was perfect for grandparents to have a quiet space. En-suites throughout is a real plus point. Everything was clean and well maintained. The location was perfect for us. Really useful to have the cafe and farm shop on the doorstep, along with bike hire, cycle path and tree treck! We used it all!! Quick drive (or cycle) to the loch with the paddle board/canoe - we had it nearly to ourselves. Only slightly further to loch Insh for all they have to offer. Easy cycle into Aviemore too! We will definitely book this again - we need to come back when the mountain is open (closed during our stay due to the wildfires). Thank you for a superb holiday."

Earth House Scotland - Stunning Historic Fishing Lodge on the River Spey

Earth House Scotland - Stunning Historic Fishing Lodge on the River Spey

10/10 Excellent
"My family and I stayed at Earth House for a week long vacation in Scotland. The property is even more breathtaking than in the photos and videos. Our group included 15 people from age 6 to 74 and every one of us agreed that it was one of the most amazing locations ever visited. The house maintains a rustic charm while having the most up to date bathrooms, kitchen and appliances. We woke up to the sun rising over the Highlands with sheep baa-ing from the nearby farm. Aviemore was a quick drive away and provided running and hiking trails, coffee shops, restaurants and plenty of activities for the children. Day trips to Inverness and Urquart Castle were very easy. At Salem's recommendation, we hired Pauline, owner of Polipocketseats, to cook for the family. Her food was delicious and accomodated the many different tastes and preferences of our group. We ended each day as a family with tea by the fireplace.Salem was extremely helpful during our stay and answered all questions we had about the house and touring around Scotland. We miss the house already and I highly recommend Earth House to others!"
