Fishing
The River Spey is regarded as one of the finest salmon rivers in the world. We have access, subject to availability, to several of the Spey’s most beautiful beats.
Shooting
Nestled on a magical estate overlooking the Speyside valley, we offer Clays, Rifle Practice and Stalking.
Golf
Another great Scotland invention is golf, and our partner courses sit on the coast of Moray Firth.
Tennis
The Craigelachie tennis court sits close to the River Spey and is a short stroll from the hotel. Guests can use it during daylight hours, and we could arrange private lessons. Rackets and tennis balls are available.
E-Bikes
E-Bikes are a beautiful way to enjoy our region, while being immersed in its beautiful nature and history. Cycle along the River Spey, explore our neighbouring towns of Aberlour and Dufftown, and roll next to the world-famous distilleries and most beautiful paths.
Hiking
The hotel is conveniently situated on the Speyside Way and close to Ben Rinnes, Ben Aigen and many more scenic routes.
