Avielochan Farm Holiday Cottages
Avielochan Cottages - self-catering cottages - located by the small loch from which we take our name. Avielochan Cottages provide comfortable self-catering holiday accommodation with spectacular panoramic views of the Cairngorm Mountains. With four properties to choose from. Avielochan is an idyllic place in the Cairngorms National Park in which to escape, relax and recharge.

Experience peace and tranquility in our rural location whilst being within easy reach of shops, restaurants, sports and leisure facilities at the nearby towns and villages. We have the perfect spot for taking in some of the best scenery of the Scottish Highlands. Our cottages are set in their own grounds on our farm with ample parking beside them.

Reasons why we have been coming back for over 17 years and why Avielochan will always be special to us;
The location is amazing. It feels so remote from everything but just outside Aviemore.
The views from Lochside and The Croft are breathtaking and ever changing.
You can walk or cycle a number of routes from your doorstep and so much to explore in the wider national park.
The cottages have always been super clean but Fiona has introduced extra cleaning and safety measures during the pandemic so you can walk in and feel safe.
The kitchen cupboards and drawers are so well equipped and organised

Beautiful location. Stunning views over the Loch to the hills. Scenery ever changing as clouds drift past. Cottage amazing. Spotlessly clean. Comfortable. Everything you could possibly need to self-cater. Fiona so welcoming. Love our Aviemore retreat. Never fails to deliver. And so many birds and rabbits to amuse entertain.

Wonderful stay at Hill View Cottage. The accommodation is clean, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen & good sized rooms with plenty of storage. We had a dog with us and the garden was dog friendly & fenced. The cottage has a boot room so really great for coming in from trips out drying the dog off and a place to leave coats/shoes etc. A warm welcome from Fiona & Ronald. Avielochan is only a 10 min car journey from Aviemore for supplies. Thank you we had a really great holiday.

We stayed in the caravan this time. Even in October it was lovely and cozy. It was immaculately clean, fully equipped and very comfortable. Sitting and looking out over the lochan or watching the birds on the feeders was so relaxing. Fiona is friendly, welcoming and helpful. We also have had holidays in the Croft, a charming cottage. We love coming to Avielochan and hope to be back.

We had a fantastic stay at The Croft. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable. We loved relaxing in front of the wood burning stove in the evenings. The double bed was comfortable and the water pressure was great in the shower. The heating was really easy to control, which was great. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and oven dishes etc. It is just a mile or so outside of Aviemore so a perfect location for all kinds of outdoor pursuits. There are beautiful views from the cottage too. We hope to be back soon!

Have stayed many times at Avielochan and hope to return soon. A beautiful peaceful place. Cottages and caravan are all immaculately clean with lovely views. Handy for all the attractions and walks the area has to offer yet still rural and quiet. The kids love the freedom and space too.

Stunning location, perfect for a quiet getaway, fantastic for bird watching. The caravan is modern, superbly equipped-couldn’t be better. Close to the amenities of Aviemore. Would definitely recommend. Fiona is a wonderful friendly host, always willing to help with any queries. Will be back next year.
