Local Holiday suggestions?

Post by Sanjøy » Sun Aug 18, 2013 10:28 pm

Got some time available for a family break 24-30th this month. R is 2.4yrs and Z is 1. Only one passport in hand between them so needs to by UK based. Cannot be away the full week so needs to be on a per night basis and ideally in separate rooms to maintain the status quo.

Thoughts?

Hi S - hope you're well?

Lodge at Dalfaber in Aviemore? Not sure of board basis but we had Cameron there last year and he loved it.

Good day out on the Choo Choo train too :-) He loved the Funicular at Cairngorms too - especially seeing the deer.

Cheers

I just booked a week in the lakes, posh camping, should be banter!

Stayed at Duchally last month for a long weekend, it was really good, great facilities etc. plenty to do in the surrounding area,

Aviemore would be a god shout too - the wildlife park would be great for the kids too !

Can't recommend it enough :thumbsup

I have availability at Capercaillie Lodge from the 25th - 30th August, £75 per night (+ £50 for cleaning) for a couple of nights, or cheaper if you want longer.

Website is a bit out of date, facebook is up to date.
