“Lovely but too expensive, should have more mod cons if not good with log fires. Very different to anything else we’ve do”

“Fantastic stay with excellent facilities.”
The bothy was very clean and in an outstanding location. Details were given regarding access to they bothy which were clear and accurate. Some extra instructions were given regarding the wood burning stove which helped us a lot.

The Bothies are fabulous, such a beautiful quite location with a short drive to many villages. Every detail was well thought out and higher quality than I expected for the price compared to other cabins we have been to. Definitely recommend and we will be back.

“Tranquil stay in a beautiful part of the world. We’ll definitely be returning.”
Loved the location, so quiet and tranquil with access to many walks from the door and hills within an easy drive. So safe and brilliant place for kids to play, our son played in the woods endlessly, making dens and exploring for hours.

“Incredible getaway, will be back!!”
Had a great Easter weekend at Beekeepers Bothie. Escaping reality for a couple days with no busy city centre, no tvs, everything completely solar powdered. It was amazing!! Highly recommend if you need to escape and be in the wilderness. The Bothie was clean and tidy when we arrived, they even had warmed the place up with the log burner 🙌🏻 carry cots are also available by booking them in advance.

“Beautiful, quiet and tranquil location - back to nature”
Beautiful secluded location, bothies set with a nice distance apart so you aren’t directly facing onto others, also seen plenty of unique wildlife nearby!

“Restorative, peaceful and beyond needed- comfort nestled in the Cairngorm Forest.”
The location of the Bothies is utterly perfect for those who are looking to find peace and tranquility in nature while still being within reach of shops. We booked a long weekend back in May but had to reschedule due to a family emergency. The lovely people who run the Bothies were so incredibly accommodating and compassionate and helped us reschedule our trip for September. Everything was so cosy and perfect, we’re already scheming on another trip as it was so restorative. Easy to find, close by to a Co op so we could do a quick shop for food, and nearby lots of walks!
