The Maltings - Highland lodge with hot tub and summer house

Welcome to The Maltings, a luxurious country holiday lodge located near the charming village of Nethy Bridge in the Scottish Highlands. A fantastic example of what Lodges in Cairngorm National Park are.

The property was originally an oat mill built in 1749. It has been renovated to create a tranquil getaway luxury lodge for families and their pets. The renovation was done with care, allowing the property to remain peaceful and secluded.

The Maltings' indoor living space has original features and heritage colors. It is also furnished with sumptuous furnishings and a wood-burning stove for warmth. This is the perfect place to relax after a busy day out.

The oat grinder is now in the bar area, converted into a bar table. It is ideal for sharing malt with family and friends. Enjoy sampling the best of Speyside Whisky in very authentic surroundings. The dining area is a great space for entertaining and creating an atmospheric evening.

Outside, The Maltings has two acres of garden offering plenty of places to explore, relax, and enjoy the fresh air. You can enjoy a meal outdoors in the dedicated outdoor dining area. You can retreat to the recently renovated log cabin summerhouse. This is a great spot for a peaceful break or for the kids to use their imaginations.

The Maltings is situated in a valley. It is surrounded by Great Caledonian Pine forests. There are plenty of trails and walks for walkers and cyclists.

The luxury hot tub is the real highlight. You can soak up the beautiful views and enjoy the ever-changing Scottish weather at any time of day.

The lodge has four bedrooms, including a king-size room with en-suite, a king-size, a double, and a twin. There are also two bathrooms, a cloakroom WC, and a utility room with washing and drying facilities. Stair gates, a games area, and board games are also provided to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Great spaces for all generations of the family.

Parents can provide their children with a sofa bed in the games area. It is located close to the upstairs double room.

We are happy to welcome two well-behaved dogs ( more on arrangement) . The garden is enclosed, and there is plenty of parking for four cars. During your stay, heating, electricity, and logs are included, as well as bed linen, towels, robes, and slippers. Welcome gift and information on local activities for families are also provided.

Five stars for the Maltings
A fabulous property with everything we needed and so much more. Quirky, clean, peaceful and fun. Hot tub enjoyed by the humans and the dog enjoyed the huge enclosed garden. Would highly recommend and would live to go back to the property again. Weather was an added bonus.

Great Lodge - nice space in garden, quite location
8 of the family joined us to hike up Munro's - annual event we will be back. On arrival we had a big storm that generated water under the front door, which flooded the dining room, the IGLOO team immediately responded and came in to clean up the flash flood. That night and came back in the morning to do a deep clean of the dining room. We would recommend this property as a great base. They offered to move us but this wasn't needed thank you for your great support.
