This one-stop website will help you find your handpicked Highland home from home...

Aviemore is the gateway to the Cairngorms, and while the national park, forests, rivers and lochs provide enough enticement to visit the area all year-round, there is something extra-special about visiting Scotland’s snow sports base in the winter. The wild beauty of the glens and mountains offer a snow capped mini-break like no other. 

If you are anything like us - whether you are wrapping up and heading for the slopes or choosing to coorie in by a cosy wood burner, with a bottle of red and a good book – you’ll want to avoid the perfunctory bunkhouses the region is known for and plump instead for a unique and characterful lodge.

Enter Handpicked Lodges: an award-winning, female-owned company that can provide you with your highland holiday home from home. 

The brainchild of working mums Judith and Tanja, Handpicked Lodges come fully equipped with everything you may need during your family holiday in one of Scotland’s most stunning locations. 

With almost twenty different listings you are sure to find a Handpicked Lodge to suit your needs. From the cosy Bothy, that sleeps four, to the majestic Kincraig House which comfortably accommodates 18 - each and every property meets Judith and Tanja’s gold standard, so you can book confidently knowing you’ll arrive to stylish self-catering accommodation. The attention to detail and hands on approach from the Handpicked team, along with the wonderfully thoughtful extras, will take your Cairngorms escape to the next level of stress-free relaxation and luxury.
