About this property

Bracken House - a house that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

Bracken House is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac at the north end of Aviemore. This modern house has a large hot tub for the whole family or a group of friends. Bracken House is named after the bracken covered hill behind the house, which is at the foot of the Craigellachie Nature Reserve. You may be lucky enough to spot some visitors to the garden and we have some lovely pictures from previous guests of Red Squirrels.

Enjoy a private and covered hot tub area in the back garden, with uninterrupted views and a BBQ for some evening dining. A secure shed also offers a place for bikes and skis, so plan to do some exploring while you are here.

The accommodation is very spacious, offering two double rooms and two twins. Great for large family or even two families. Kids are looked after and a selection of DVDs and a PS3 for guests use - just bring your own favourite games. The large kitchen and dining room are definitely the heart of this home and there is space for everyone to dine or just relax with a glass of wine with views to the garden.

Christmas in Aviemore

Great service and information from Great North Lodges. House was easy to find and in a beautiful location. The house had everything we needed and plenty of space which let kids have some space of their own. Beds were extremely comfortable and bedrooms were all of a good size. We had a problem with the heating but this was rectified within an hour or so. Hot tub was the icing on the cake, great after a day out in the cold. Welcome pack was fabulous.

Lovely spot

The house was great, really well located for local amenities and walking / other activities in the area. The hot tub is a lot of fun and was lovely and clean. Kitchen well equipped. A couple of small areas that would benefit from maintenance e.g. loose toilet seats and some bathroom mould but nothing major. We’d return.

A fantastic property for a family gathering

We are regular visitors to Aviemore and have stayed in a few holiday homes and Bracken House did not disappoint. Great location with a great space for 7 of us and our dog. The hot tub was an added benefit and would recommend to others.

Loved our stay. the only fault would be that the main room bed needs a bigger bed, can’t beat huge bed, maybe access to Netflix.

Overall a great property in a great location with the added bonus of a Jacuzzi. Felt that property could have been cleaner. It would also be nice if heating was on for our arrival. Would definately stay again and recommend property to others.

Short holiday

We use Great North Lodges a good few times throughout the year and have always had good service. We enjoyed our stay but the house could do with a bit of a freshen up. Decor is now tired throughout.

The ideal place to stay for your relaxing Aviemore adventure

My wife and friends of ours have been visiting Aviemore for several years and came across this fabulous house to rent. We stayed here last year and again this year. It is in the ideal location, close enough to walk into the village but remote enough so there is no traffic noise and lots of wildlife on your doorstep. The hot tub is brilliant under a cozy canopy so no issues if the wind picks up, and is large enough to cater for up to 8 people . The kitchen has every conceivable utensil including a laundry room. The linen and towels are all brilliant white and the bathrobes and slippers provided by the house are a lovely touch.

June visit

House is in excellent location, quiet area but within easy reach of Aviemore centre and all local attractions . Good overall amenities, large kitchen with additional seating area , comfy beds and and great to have TV's in all bedrooms. Also great to have hot tub under cover as it can then be used in all weather. Overall spacious well equipped house offering good accommodation for family groups. Rear garden has lovely views onto woodlands and very private. Only downside was that the garden seating consisted of just one wooden picnic style bench. Not comfortable to sit on and would not easily accommodate more than 4 people so if house is at capacity and everyone wanted to enjoy outdoor dining or just relax in the garden this would be an issue. Would suggest some additional garden chairs would be welcome.

Weekend stay

Had a lovely stay in this lodge with family. It is situated close to town but we never realised it was in a residential street our last lodges in Aviemore were more secluded , however it is a very quiet area. Comfortable lodge with everything you need lots of contact numbers. Central for doing everything and you can walk in town. Would recommend family to use this lodge it also has a hot tub undercover with was very handy and hard to get in the area . Not disable friendly though as no bathroom down stairs only a toilet . Not a problem for us but maybe for others . Lovely comfortable home would use again .

Great base for exploring Aviemore

Great base for the family. Audra who maintains the property was on hand if there was a problem and was very helpful. We would stay there again. My constructive criticism would be on cleanliness, the blinds were very dusty and the windows needed cleaning. We also found an half eaten packet of biscuits, old tv remote and a hair comb underneath one of the settees. Also on arrival we found that the dishwasher was full of the last guests dishes so we had to empty that.

Nice but not exceptional

Booked with GNL before and service is great. Houses are all of a relative standard and provide everything you need for a great stay. I’m probably being a wee bit harsh on this one but felt it was a bit tired overall, decor etc needs attention but as I say that’s just an opinion. The kitchen was a bit worn and the plates and bowls have seen way too many visits to the dishwasher. The location was nice if a bit out of the centre but, we chose that so if that’s what you are looking for then it’s recommendable. One thing that continues to disappoint is the late check in, early departure. In my opinion 4.00 pm is a waste of a day by the time you travel and unpack.

Needs work

We have been coming here for 6 years now, always enjoyed our stay unfortunately this time was a bit disappointing, the hot tub lid was broken causing floaters in water. Grass was uncut and long. Toilet seat in main insult was broken, lights on upstairs landing didn’t work. Ceiling in kitchen showing signs water damage cracked plaster. Fridge compartments missing. Have taken pictures on arrival of these areas for proof. No the house is supposed to be cleaned and inspected before next guest so why was the lodge in this state for ud

A good family lodge for an Aviemore holiday

The customer service from Great North Lodges was wonderful. We found this lodge on their website and it matched all our requirements. They are happy to allow pets as well (we had 3). From the lodge it is a drive back into the town centre for shopping at Tesco, Aldi or Home Bargains, but you can still walk that distance if you don't need to carry anything back. There's a lovely walk through the woods alongside the A9. It is closer to the Dalfaber estate where there is a co-op, pizzeria and chip shop, and these are within easy walking distance. The bedrooms are all of a good size and all had TVs, and there were enough bathrooms to accommodate us all. The showers are all walk-in size and there's also a bath in the main bathroom. A big lounge with full media TV and video games leads out to a covered hot tub (very nice when it's a bit drizzly). The kitchen is big and well stocked. The garden is lovely and looks out onto the woods at the rear of the property so plenty of wildlife to see. The only gripes were: one mattress was too hard (personal taste though), the TV in the kitchen was not a smart TV so limited to what you could watch (only a problem when some of the group wanted to watch something different), and the garden shed is in the sunniest bit of the garden in the mornings (I like my coffee in the sunshine). All in all, I would recommend this property for a family trip.
