"We had a really good time in Aviemore and your house is lovely. The journey through was a bit of an epic but worth it once we arrived as the snow was just brilliant! We even managed a bit of sledging with the kids so everyone was happy. Many thanks again for the accomodation and we'll definately recommend Lochan Mòr to our friends and family.
Thanks again,"
Marlene and family, Skye.

"Superbly appointed - reminisent of the best of hotels. Gleneagles was mentioned. Really enjoyed it. Thanks." The Johnstons, Edinburgh.

"Thanks for everything.  As mentioned the house is simply fantastic. We had a wonderful week walking, mountain biking, quad biking and finally a day and a half of skiing. Although somewhat limited by the closed lifts the snow and skiing that were there were great. An education to all those who write off Scotland as a serious ski resort! I'm certain I'll be back."

"Lochan Mor Lodge was absolutely fantastic - and, to be honest, it was so nice I didn't really want to go out much anyway!  We did spend some time at the climbing wall and my husband ran the half marathon, but I can honestly say that I have found my place to stay whenever we go to Aviemore.  You have really created home away from home there, and we will definitely be back as soon as possible.  So glad we found you!
All the best and hopefully will be booking again soon!" O'Grady's, Aberdeenshire.

December 2008

"We had a lovely time at Aviemore. We hope we come again in the future. Me and my brother like our room. I have a little cousin called Lucas, he's only one. We were very excited to see snow" Cooper and Laing Clan.

"I would just like to say how enjoyable a time we had in Scotland. We got the opportunity to go skiing up at the Lecht and almost had the place to ourselves; on top of that everyone was so friendly and helpful. A visit to feed the reindeer up on the mountains was also a highlight not to be missed. Can I say that everybody was very impressed with your lodge. It was exactly as described in the advert (so many times this is not the case) and without doubt made our holiday very special and I thank you for that. The welcome gifts together with the Christmas decorations were the icing on the cake.(it snowed as well) We have left comments in the guest book and some suggestions of where to go and things to see. I have one suggestion you might include in your rental details of the property. We were pleasantly surprised and not expecting, to find the sky TV, video, DVD, films, cd player and cd’s etc in both lounge and kitchen. My children (early 20’s) were really happy with this technology. In addition the games and magazines available are a great idea (again, not expected). So, thank you once again for helping to provide us with an unforgettable time in Scotland. Already Jill is looking for us to return next year and all our friends and colleagues have been forwarded the details of the Lodge.

 Here’s Wishing you a Happy Christmas and New Year." The Towell Family, Dorset.

"Thank you for the wonderful time. We had really great Christmas, and definitely memorable one too. Best Christmas ever.
I would like to think about Aviemore as my next holiday destination, maybe in summer. Hopefully your house will be again available as I liked it very much. Although there was no snow in the village but we have managed to see it up on the mountain where we went, and I loved the long walk around the lake. I do photography.  I did lots of nice pictures of the area. Pity it was such a short time!
Wish You and Your Family all the best in the New Year." Iwona and family, South Africa.
