An amazing lodge in a perfect location.

Now our second stay in this lodge and was truly exceptional. The location on the Speyside Way is is perfect for cyclists and walkers. The lodge itself has just so many little features that make it special - from games to play and bird feeders to watch the wildlife to the space it provides which allow larger groups to do there own thing or gather together to enjoy each other's company.

A lot of love goes into making sure our guests have everything they could ask for at Pine Ridge Lodge, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay. Our guests love the location of the lodge in the village of Boat of Garten, surrounded by the forest it's perfect for a bit of bird spotting too. Lots of space both inside and out for larger groups to enjoy. We hope to welcome you back again soon.

Another great stay

Another great stay at Pine Ridge Lodge! Three generations now and well equipped for all, comfortable and spacious. Fab location, walks from the door, garden lovely for socialising and relaxing. Loved the different areas to sit in and catch the sun! Hot tub a bonus. Only downside was there was a lot of dog hairs on some of the throws and carpets in the bedrooms. Not ideal with a crawling baby. Couldn’t find a vac otherwise we would have tried to remove some. Nothing that would put us off booking again though.

Stayed at this lodge a number of times now and it really feels like a home from home. A great location and good safe garden for a dog. A comfortable lodge and really good to see that the owner does provide for some refreshes.

Lovely stay

We had a lovely stay at Pine ridge lodge. The location is ideal for the holiday we enjoy (walking and spending time with family).The layout of the house was great. We were 6 adults 2 babies and 2 dogs the tiered layout allowed for everyone to have their own space while the communal areas allowed for a good family catch up.

Fantastic Lodge in the beautiful Boat of Garten

A stunningly presented lodge within the pretty village of the Boat of Garten. Very well presented, well equipped and very comfortable lodge. The hot tub is a wonderful additional and the wildlife in the garden was amazing, with lots of birds and red squirrels. Plenty of good walks from the door for the dogs. The greater Aviemore area is beautiful with the mountains and lochs. Would highly recommend this wonderful lodge.

Perfect location and ideal house

Everything about Pine Ridge Lodge was spot on. Exactly as described, very clean and welcoming. Perfect surroundings close to Aviemore, but still very quiet. Lots of extras (games, DVDs, etc, etc) available - which was a really nice touch.

A very happy week at pine ridge lodge. The house was well equipped and the hot tub was wonderful! Could do with carpeting upstairs, as the wooden floors were a bit cold and noisy, but otherwise very happy.

Amazing home in a fantastic location!

We’ve stayed in many properties with GNL and have never had any issues, and their communication has always been great. Pine Ridge Lodge is an amazing home and my family and I loved it here. Location is fantastic, house very roomy and comfortable and the garden is perfect for our wee dog. Already booked again for next year!

Perfect holiday home.

We had a fantastic break away at Pine Ridge Lodge, the house is very well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. We were pretty lucky with the weather and were able to make use of the barbecue and garden. The location is perfect with beautiful views and ideal for walking being right on the Speyside Way. We all wished we could have stayed longer and will definitely be making a return visit.
