Craigellachie Lodge in Craigellachie: Photos and Reviews

Craigellachie Lodge is run by Scott and Jodi, who also own the Speyside Whisky Shop, giving guests direct access to rare bottles and expert knowledge. The on-site Whisky Bar is curated by Scott and stocks some of the most excellent and occasionally very rare whisky available. Guests who purchase from the shop receive free delivery service to their door at the lodge.

The lodge offers an on-site restaurant serving an evening meal with options like pizza and a 6-course taster menu with paired wines. Breakfast includes full English/Irish, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, served with warm dishes in a comfortable dining room. Special diet menus are available upon request, and the bar serves wine, champagne, and a range of whiskies.

Guests can hire bikes from Right To Roam for cycling on the Speyside Way or explore hiking routes directly from the lodge.

Nearby attractions include Glenfiddich Whisky Distillery (less than 2 km) and the Speyside Cooperage Visitor Centre, with Huntly Castle located 29 km away.

Select rooms come with premium bedding and can accommodate pets on request.
