Cairngorm Lodge Youth Hostel

What is there not to like when staying in such an iconic building, with excellent facilities, nice staff and an extraordinary view! Beware: the cooked breakfast is heavy stuff and perhaps for 2 to share 😀

Staff were friendly and helpful, location handy and beautiful, with red squirrels nearby and nesting house martins. My only suggestion would be that - as we should be reducing meat and dairy consumption for environmental reasons - vegetarian breakfast should be the norm.

Perfect for the one night we needed to stay.

The room were fabulous and clean . The staff were great . We had prepaid breakfast continental £7 cereal, toast, Butter and Jams, small yogurts and fruit juice coffee and tea not worth £7 each. Full breakfast £9 . Bacon sausage beans and black pudding. The kitchen area or all to use was fab used it some nights . The meals on the the menu were £9 for the main meal good size portion.
