We booked the hotel for a weekend break on the basis of excellent Tripadvisor reviews and personal recommendation. We were not disappointed. Do not be deceived by the three-star Visit Scotland grading, this is a small hotel (only five rooms) but offers very high quality throughout and a very personal service from the owners, The food is of a high...

We stayed at Fairwinds Hotel for Easter, a fantastic experience. The hosts, Lindsay and Allison, provide a genuine, warm welcome, with every need catered for. The rooms are comfy and well equipped, the location is charming and the food is absolutely amazing! Breakfast is magnificent, freshly prepared to order. Dinner is an experience. Every delicious course is beautifully cooked and... More

Great hotel, lovely hosts and a super location for visiting the Highlands and Aviemore district. A perfect day here starts with breakfast in the conservatory - watching the red squirrels eating theirs only 3 metres away. Then maybe a game of golf, a visit to a distillery or a walk (or a combination of 2 out of 3). Back for... More

We've stayed at the Fairwinds 3 times over the past 12 years now and each time has been a fantastic visit, without fail. The owners Alison and Lindsey are friendly and cannot do enough for you. They really add that finishing touch to your stay through making you feel like you're 'part of the family'. We've stayed in the chalets... More

This hotel was a gem of a find. Went with friends for their second trip and can't wait to go back. Alison and Lyndsey are perfect hosts and the food was amaaaaaaaazing. Can't thank you enough ladies, Derek and I had a fab time. Would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a true Scottish welcome. Will be back in... More

I highly recommend the Fairwinds Hotel. For the last three years, a group of us travel from the U.S. to Carrbridge in October to participate in the World Porridge Making Championship--the so called "Golden Spurtle." We slept and had all of our breakfasts and dinners at the Fairwinds Hotel. It was so good, we wouldn't think of going elsewhere. Lindsay... More

We enjoyed three nights at the Fairwinds Hotel with Alison and Lindsay serving as gracious hosts. Our room was cozy and the food wonderful, but the hospitality was what will bring me back. Thank you for the sweet memories. More

The venue, the owners, and the great atmosphere really made our holiday. The rooms were clean, the food was outstanding in fact it was top class. The owners were brilliant. I am planning our next trip. More

Don't be put off by first appearances at this lovely hotel. The hotel is starting to look a bit tired in parts, but our room was large, spotlessly clean, very comfortable and with lovely touches like homemade shortbread and Arran Arromatics toiletries. The food was excellent, as was the service. The owners couldn't have done enough for us. We will... More
