About this property

Cosy, rustic retreat in the Cairngorms National Park, surrounded by wild nature.

At the heart of the Cairngorms National Park, Ballintean Mountain Lodge nestles in a landscape of outstanding natural beauty. Vast ancient forests, hidden lochs and snow-capped mountains provide a breath-taking backdrop for an inspiring and uplifting holiday, retreat or workshop.

Set in a private, elevated position amongst open woodland, Mountain Lodge has a rustic, contemporary feel with furnishings inspired by the natural landscape around us, providing the perfect base from which to immerse yourself in the space and solitude of the Scottish Highlands.

The Lodge comfortably accommodates fourteen guests* in a mix of single, double and twin bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities. The light and airy two-tier lounge – ideal for group discussions and workshops – offers full AV facilities, whilst the dining room, full of rural charm, allows everyone to get together and enjoy a relaxing dining experience. We offer a partial/full catering service for those groups who wish to focus on their chosen activity.

From the Lodge, a 3-minute walk takes you to the rushing waters of the River Feshie – part of our 120-acre 'rewilding reserve' – with views to the hills beyond. For hikers and cyclists, there are a multitude of tracks and trails leading straight from the door, as well as an extensive network of pathways throughout the area.

For the nature lover, regular visitors to Ballintean include red squirrels, pine martens and badgers, while golden eagles and ospreys can often be seen overhead. For the more adventurous, local activities include wild swimming, clay pigeon shooting, quad bike safaris and Scotland's most exciting woodland zip line.

A short distance from Mountain Lodge, hidden in the woods, is our beautifully-appointed 3-bedroomed cottage, which can serve as an annex for larger groups. Ballintean Cottage comfortably accommodates six guests.

*Mountain Lodge has fourteen bed spaces, however, we would recommend limiting your group to twelve if it comprises adults only.
