Guests say

Red Deer Lodge is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its beautiful location, cleanliness, and peaceful setting. Guests enjoyed the cosy atmosphere, the wood burner, and the scenic walks right from the doorstep. The lodge's layout and high-quality furnishings were also appreciated, making it a recommended stay for those seeking tranquillity and comfort in the Northern Highlands.

The majority of guests found the lodge to be clean and tidy, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, a few mentioned issues such as dog hair in cupboards and a dirty grill pan, slightly affecting the overall perception of cleanliness.

The lodge's location is highly praised for its peacefulness, beautiful surroundings, and proximity to local walks and attractions. It is considered ideal for a tranquil retreat in the Cairngorms.

Guests found the beds comfortable and the lodge cosy, especially with the log burner. Some concerns were raised about insufficient lounge seating for the maximum number of guests and the heat in upstairs bedrooms.

The lodge is well-equipped with high-quality furnishings and appliances. However, there were several mentions of issues with the hob, oven, and washing machine, indicating room for improvement in maintenance and facilities.

There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.

    The lodge was beautiful! We loved the wood burning stove! Kitchen was fully equipped. The beds were comfy, the lodge clean and the bathrooms really spacious. Surrounded with lovely walks we had the perfect week. My only feedback would be to maybe have a fence to let dogs out to the toilet, because it’s a bit of a hassle getting the dogs harnesss and lead every time to go out to the toilet! And maybe a baby gate for the bottom of the stairs to keep dogs downstairs? But other than these minor things we had a fab week! Would love to come back again

    Thank you for a WONDERFUL place to truely escape to. A calm haven nestled in the forest ready to explore the spectacular area. The best nights sleep I ever had away from my own bed!

  • James

    Very private and loved the outdoor fire. The Lodge was very well thought out and the balconies where an added bonus. The only downside was one of the beds was broken and there was no lighter for the fire. It was very clean and had every utensil you could ask for. Definitely will be back I would imagine it would be stunning in the winter.
