The Boat House Guesthouse, hotel in Boat of Garten

Located in the small village of Boat of Garten, The Boat House Guest house offers free WiFi access and free on-site parking.

Contrary to other reviews which I'm sure were posted on the wrong Boathouse, the Boat House Guesthouse, remember Guesthouse, would definitely get my return business. Harry was a delightful host and his breakfast made to order, could not be surpassed. Friendly, clean and helpful.

Dalrachney Lodge, hotel in Boat of Garten

Dalrachney Lodge is a family-run country house hotel in Carrbridge, in the heart of the Scottish Highlands and is approached via a tree-lined riverside driveway.

I can't recommend the Delrachney Lodge enough. Our room was lovely, our hosts were charming and caring, and the breakfast was amazing. On to of that, they were so concerned about us that one night when getting dinner out would be difficult they made special arrangements for us and gave us a delicious dinner at the Lodge, where they normally do not serve dinner. We will be back without question. Thanks Steve and Tracy for a great experience.

    Boat of Garten is a great little village with all the necessaries. The post office/village shop has some excellent fare on offer. Anderson's restaurant and the Boat Hotel are well worth a visit. The EV chargers at the village hall are very convenient and the village is surrounded by a variety of well maintained and signed forest paths to suit all abilities.

    Boat of Garten is a nice small village with a few places to go and eat. We went to Boat Country Inn and had a lovely meal. It is also central for places to visit and country walks. Love the train station - old style and well kept

    If you like being outdoors it is perfect.

    If you like being outdoors it is perfect. Loch Garten is the perfect tonic for anyone tired of city life, it was so beautiful and peaceful there. Of course Aviemore is close if you want skiing in season and perhaps some night life. Grantown on Spey was lovely and more forest nearby in Anagach Woods. Lots of Neolithic sites near Grantown too. Nethy Bridge was lovely, surrounded by forest.

    Beautiful location and only a short drive to Aviemore. We took the train to Inverness for the day and had a beautiful meal in a restaurant there. Easy to get to the shops and supermarkets in Aviemore itself.

    This was a beautiful place to stay, we had a gorgeous room (101), super friendly and helpful staff (Muir was lovely, I didn't get the names of everyone else, but both the women on reception, the guy on the bar, Thomas from the kitchen who gave us tips for a beautiful walk, and the woman in the restaurant with a mandala were all wonderful, very accommodating, really cheerful, and we had some great chats with everyone too). Views straight out to the mountains and the steam train, the food was lovely, very tasty, good portions, plenty of choice, and honestly the fastest I've ever known food to arrive from any restaurant ever! We had a couple of cocktails too and again they were delicious. The room was warm and comfortable, spacious and spotlessly clean.

    Location was great. Short drive into Aviemore where you can also jump on the train and take a day trip to Inverness. The lodge was spacious and well equipped for what we needed. It was clean and perfect for our stay. The large decking area around the lodge was also great and enclosed so we could let the dog wander around and know she couldn’t escape! The host always responded very quickly to any messages that I sent and also accommodated an early check in with no additional charge.

    Excellent base for a family holiday in the Highlands. Homely and comfortable with everything you need. After a small problem with the oven, the owners got it sorted out and the communication from them was spot on. Would highly recommend poppy lodge and will be re-booking for next year's holiday. Boat of Garten is perfectly placed if you like an active holiday with beautiful walks and bike tracks and five minutes from Aviemore.

    The property was very clean and had everything you may need for a break away! The beds we’re comfortable and it had all been organised with thought and care. The host was wonderful and replied quickly and politely to some questions we had before arriving. Boat of Garten is a lovely small place, we also enjoyed a walk in the local woods each night before bed! Hoping we can get another stay booked soon!

    Spacious and immaculate chalet with a great view across the hills. Petina provided above and beyond what would be expected of a self catering accommodation, lots of extras and lovely homely touches throughout for a comfortable and hassle free stay. Beautiful location with so much to do nearby. Cannot wait to return again. Thanks for a great stay

    Fabulous location and really cosy. The temperature dropped to minus 8 the night we were there but we were pleasantly warm. The hotel has lots of character and our dinner was excellent. The bar staff were lovely and someone kindly filled my flask in the morning. Very comfortable beds.

    The room was very good, apart from a very musty smell which we put down to the hotel having been closed for so long as a result of Covid. It was large, well decorated with all the facilities we would expect for the price paid. The staff were very friendly, and helpful.

    Beautiful location in Boat of Garten, which although it may not have the shops Aviemore does is infinitely quieter and prettier. The lodge looks out over fields with sheep grazing and I even saw a stoat hunting rabbits (which was amazing to see in real life).
