Scott, Jodi and the Craigellachie Lodge team were extremely welcoming and hospitable while we stayed at the Lodge. I would highly recommend staying and experiencing Speyside from this location and wouldn't hesitate to stay again when we return to Scotland. Thank you for a wonderful visit and experience!

We had a lovely one night stay here (wish it was longer). The staff were so welcoming and helpful. We dined in the restaurant for dinner and the food was delicious. I am coeliac and the server and chef were very accommodating to my needs. So glad we found this hidden gem and will definitely be back.

A nice quiet B&B located up the hill from the town center. The room was cozy and clean. The staff was wonderful and friendly. The breakfast was delicious and just what we needed after a long day and night of Scotch tastings and drinking. Would definitely come back and stay here again.

At start, we had a very warm welcome by the owner Jodi. We had a spacious room, breakfast was delicious as well the dinner. Very homey, and when we could not get a taxi to Macallan, Jodi prompted to take us there and pick up later. That was customer care. We will be back!

This is a 6-bedroom bnb in Craigellachie. The owners are very nice and accommodating. Their staff in the morning made a wonderful breakfast and were also very kind. We were able to have a fire in the evening to unwind and relax. The only recommendation I have is to bring warm clothes as the heaters go off at night in the rooms (and also during the day). The rooms are single paned glass so it gets cold easily in the rooms. The last night we were there it dropped to 0 degrees and the heater was off in the room so we were quite cold. Otherwise a very nice stay!

The hotel was amazing! From the warm welcome to the recommendations locally to the high standard of decor throughout the accommodation. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The place was a perfect retreat for us for a few days. We would, without hesitation, recommend this place.
