The Craiglynne Hotel

Winter weather in the city is a massive inconvenience.

By contrast, winter in the Highlands means skiing, ice climbing and beautiful, wild scenery.

Get out of town and enjoy the winter wonderland with today’s Big Deal from The Craiglynne Hotel in Grantown-on-Spey.

It’s a snow brainer.

Cairngorms National Park

A striking granite hotel, built in Victorian times, The Craiglynne enjoys spectacular views to the Cairngorms.

If you enjoy outdoor pursuits, it is only fourteen miles from the resort town of Aviemore.

Log fires

Full of traditional Scottish charm, The Craiglynne retains its attractive stone façade with towers, and bay windows looking on to the pretty gardens.

The interior is comfortable and homely. The public rooms and restaurant feature chandeliers and large lounge areas with roaring log fires.

Chef’s daily changing menu

This splendid offer is for two people to spend two or three nights in a double or twin room at The Craiglynne Hotel.

As well as a full Scottish breakfast each morning, the offer includes the three course chef’s daily changing menu each night of your stay.

Victorian charm

Elegantly redesigned with a tartan twist, The Craiglynne’s ensuite guest rooms feature TVs, complimentary toiletries and hot drinks facilities.

There is WiFi in public areas so you can stay in touch while you enjoy your break.

Local produce

Locally sourced produce takes pride of place on the menus at the Speyside Restaurant in The Craiglynne.

The chef’s daily menu changes regularly but typical starters might be the haggis bon bons with a Balmoral sauce or the smoked salmon mousse.

Popular main courses include the chicken breast with Arran mustard mashed potato, tender stem broccoli and a red wine jus.

Alternatively, you could try the Scottish fishcake with spring onion, chilli, grilled pak choi and Hollandaise sauce.

Finish with clootie dumpling and crème ecosse or mulled wine cheesecake with cinnamon Chantilly cream.

Malt whisky

Located in the heart of the Whisky Trail and within easy striking distance of the Cairngorms National Park and Loch Ness, there is no shortage of great visitor attractions in the area. From the Strathspey Steam Railway to the Glenfarclas Distillery there is plenty to do around Craiglynne.

Alternatively, just relax in the sun lounge and enjoy the views of the gardens – taking it easy comes easy at The Craiglynne.

Roaring log fires and a fine collection of malt whiskies mean that The Craiglynne Hotel is a wonderful place to relax after a hard day sightseeing.

Happy reviewers

The Craiglynne Hotel has attracted its fair share of enthusiastic reviews on TripAdvisor. We’ve edited these recent reviews for length:

‘Great stay… just back from a weekend stay… I didn’t want to come home! We had a king room which was very spacious and comfortable… we had a nice fish and chips meal. Breakfast was also very filling and service was great. The hotel was quiet which I liked and the village around is lovely with the lights lit up for Christmas… I would most definitely go back!’

Valid from early January to the end of April, this offer would make a tremendous winter getaway – especially for anyone with a taste for skiing or other winter sports.

If winter walks in woolly jumpers followed by cosy evenings next to the log fire sound good then bag this Big Deal with The Craiglynne Hotel.

You snow it makes perfect sense.
