Just returned from the most fabulous family holiday at Spey Valley. Check in was simple and easy, we found our home easily with the map provided by the receptionist who was lovely and smiley and happy to help with information on the area and ideas for us to do during our stay. The accomodation. Number 8. It was perfect. From the outside it doesn't look spectacular but once inside you have a huge open plan kitchen diner with all the cooking amenities we required - even a percolator for my morning coffee. A dishwasher to save on the dishes and a gorgeous wood burning stove complete with fire lighters wood and kindling. We had two bedrooms, a spacious king room with ensuite (big electric shower) and plenty storage space. A twin room with loads of storage space and comfortable bed. All the linen was spotless and bedding very comfortable. There was also a conservatory off the open plan living/diner/kitchen. And the biggest surprise was a proper sauna non of your red light nonsense. Proper coals real wood and perfect after a long day walking and playing with the kids. We loved it. Facilities. There is so much to do. The swimming pool was just a couple minutes walk from our home from home. Changing rooms were clean, towels are provided and the pool was lovely and warm for a splash about with little kids. The jacuzzi was a great touch too and was always on while we were there. There are hair dryers in the changing rooms and lockers so you can leap straight out of the pool, do your hair and head to the bar for a game of pool and glass of wine. They have a small area with toys for kids in the bar and children are welcome to play pool which was free on a Monday and Tuesday as long as they are supervised. There is a play park just outside the bar area that my children ages 5 7 and 10 all loved. The restaurant is cosy and inviting with a big fire in the middle adding to the lodge in the woods feel. The area: it's in a beautiful location, handy for all local attractions in aviemore including the cairngorm, aviemore village, go karting. Landmark (which i highley recommend for families. We arrived at 10:30am and didn't leave until the park shut up 5pm) All in all this was just the best place for a family to stay, relax get out and spend time together away from screens, stress and noise. We loved it and can't wait to come back.

“MacDonalds Spey Valley”

We've stayed here lots of times over the years. This time we booked a "spacious 2 bedroom apartment". There was only one photo on the macdonalds website, which was of the main bedroom, so we didn't know what to expect. We were very happy when we checked in to discover we were in Topsider 2.

We've stayed here lots of times over the years. This time we booked a "spacious 2 bedroom apartment". There was only one photo on the macdonalds website, which was of the main bedroom, so we didn't know what to expect. We were very happy when we checked in to discover we were in Topsider 2. It was in a great location overlooking the River Spey. The 360° balcony was wonderful to take in the view. Accommodation was very clean and had everything we needed. Resort was fantastic, pool open ever day. Staff were all wonderful.
