Bit tired and lacking advertised facilities
Chalets were fine. Well equipped if a bit tired, small and needing an update but given we paid less than £100 per night was ok for the price. Beds were comfy though bedrooms were very, very small. I struggle to see how these could comfortably accommodate 6 people. 4 would be the maximum and only on the basis most were children or everyone knew each other really well!! Its well located and we were able to walk in and out of Carrbridge easily in under 20 mins, although a very small track, with no street lights alongside an A Road so may be a bit of a struggle for those with prams/weelchairs or very small children and not safe at all i would say in the winter months. Major issue for us was the lack of advertised bar and restaurant. Feel we were mis-sold a bit on that one. We travelled as a group of 4 families and on site facilities was a major reason we booked here only to be told at last minute that these were unavailable despite all the info on the website to the contrary. Apparently they run the bar restaurant as a franchise and the most recent owners folded 3 weeks before our stay. Time for macdonald hotels to make that clear on their website or take the bar/restaurant in house again so guests can actually enjoy the facilities they expected when they booked! For any new guests caught out like we were, The Cairn Hotel were amazing, squeezed 15 of us in for dinner last minute, food was lovely and accepted dogs, kids etc. Well worth the 20min walk there and back.
