Highland Lodge Meets Springwatch

“We recently spent a fantastic week at Dell Lodge in what is easily the best large self-catering accommodation we’ve stayed in within the Cairngorms (and we have stayed in many!). Beautiful house, immaculately clean, cosy and welcoming, and perfectly equipped with everything we needed. It made an ideal base for exploring the area and endless walks from the door. What really stood out was the customer service,  which was outstanding from start to finish. It’s clear this is a family-run, independent business, as the team were incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout our stay. A truly special place, and we can’t wait to return.”

“Just home from a magical stay at the Dell of Abernethy. What a place to welcome in a new year! Ross, Polly and the whole team could not have been more hospitable and helpful (even helping to dig our cars out of the snow on the day we sadly had to leave). We stayed in the West Dell cottage which was beautiful and cosy. As frequent visitors to self catered properties in the Cairngorms (often managed by third parties) The Dell was a breath of fresh air offering comfort, charm, style and personality in abundance whilst feeling like a home from home. The location is perfect with epic trails to explore on the doorstep. The Dell Grocer on site is a lovely addition with a gorgeous selection of quality, local produce on offer. Cannot recommend more highly and can’t wait to return!”

“Not long home from a brilliant week staying at the Dell of Abernethy. We stayed in Dell lodge which was very homely, cosy and full of charm. We enjoyed a very comfortable stay with everything we could need in the well stocked kitchen and it was also nice to have the dell grocer on site to treat ourselves to some home made granola or a bottle of wine! The staff were all very friendly and eager to help, constantly filling up busy bird feeders, keeping log piles stacked and even helping us to dig our cars out of the snow. The location is perfect for beautiful walks in Nethy forest and further straight from the door and the scenery is stunning. You truly feel away from it all. Can’t wait to return, thanks for a brilliant week!”

“Great New Year break at Dell of Abernethy stayed in Dell Cottage as part of family group Have stayed in many large houses as a family but this experience was unique as in we had our own cottages but with interconnecting doors therefore worked really well across the ages ranging from 7-70 years. Was nice to be in accommodation owned and managed by family Ross Polly and Dawn and all staff we encountered could not have been more helpful. The Dell is in the perfect location for anyone who enjoys the outdoor life with nature on your doorstep plus peace and tranquility. Enjoyed it so much have already booked to return”

“Managed to book a short notice break here at the end of August and what a brilliant place. Stayed in Little Dell which was perfect for us as a couple with a dog. Has it's own little garden which was better than we thought from the details on the website. Location is perfect for getting out for walks in to the forests surrounding it, so peaceful and ideal for relacing. Ross/Polly/Dawn and the whole team are really friendly and helpful, the on site deli and coffee's are great. Will definitely be back for another stay when possible!!”
