Your late summer escape is just a cast away

Make your way to the Spey before the season slips away

The end of summer brings with it a final chance for this year to experience one of Speyside’s most beloved traditions: fly fishing on the River Spey. With the season closing on September 30th, now is the time to book a late summer escape to The Craigellachie Hotel, where authentic Speyside charm meets understated luxury. Just steps from our front door, the River Spey is celebrated as one of the world’s premier salmon rivers.

Whether you are a lifelong angler or casting for the first time, we can help you access some of the most beautiful and rewarding beats on the river.

September is the perfect time to take in the golden light of late summer and embrace the peace of riverside tranquillity.

When you’re not on the river, discover the spirit of Speyside in every sense. Visit nearby distilleries including Macallan, Glenfiddich and Glenfarclas, each steeped in heritage and offering immersive tours and tastings. Then return to The Craigellachie Hotel for a dinner where you will savour local produce at the Spey Inn, followed by a dram at the world-renowned Quaich Bar, home to over 700 single malt whiskies. End your day wrapped in luxury, with Egyptian cotton sheets and Johnstons of Elgin cashmere awaiting you.

Availability is limited as the season winds down. Book your stay today and experience the perfect Speyside send-off.
