“We are a family of 5 (children aged 8,11,14) and stayed at 2 Strathtay lodges in February half term.”
This was one of the best places we have ever stayed.
The lodge was spotlessly clean, well equipped, warm, and comfortable. Even down to little plug in night lights which came on automatically at night (perfect for our 8 year old). We cooked at the lodge rather than eating out, the kitchen was better equipped than our one at home. Everything had been thought of. We could have quite happily lived here forever. If internet is important to you, it’s worth noting this can be a bit sporadic. This wasn’t an issue for us. The view from the lodge more than compensated! I took so many photos, it’s a shame you can’t put them in a review!
In terms of location, we found Aberfeldy well placed if you don’t mind a drive. The main roads up to the north are easy to drive on, and we drove up to The Cairngorms and Aviemore, Dalwhinnie distillery (highly recommended!) The town itself has a small Co op and Asda petrol station - we had a run to Perth which was about 45 mins for a big supermarket shop. There is an excellent bike hire shop at the bottom of the road to the lodge, which my bike mad 14 year old was more than happy with, and MTB routes up from Aberfeldy are excellent. Biking is a great way to explore. There is also a place to book rafting, wrong time of year for us, but we would have definitely done this if we had visited later in the year. Walking routes are brilliant, we had a lovely afternoon walking round the Birks of Aberfeldy, and down by the river. It is worth seeking out local knowledge for locations. For an active family this is an absolute five star holiday. The lodge is perfect to come back to after a day of adventure. We would stay here again without hesitation. Highly recommended!
Absolutely delighted that you enjoyed the lodge and the surrounding areas,
