Victorian guest house in Grantown-on-Spey, gateway to Cairngorms National Park

Accommodations & Architecture

Ravenscourt House is a stone-built Victorian property with 7 bedrooms, each furnished with period pieces. Deluxe Double or Twin Rooms offer spacious layouts with king-size beds and en-suite bathrooms featuring local toiletries. Standard Double Rooms are well-appointed with tea and coffee facilities, Tunnocks tea cakes, and fluffy towels. The family-run guest house also provides two comfortable lounges, one with a TV and the other with a library of board games for guest use.

Dining & Breakfast

Breakfast is served in a glass-fronted conservatory overlooking a garden with bird feeders and visiting deer. The menu includes locally sourced ingredients: full Scottish breakfast, cranachan pancakes, and homemade marmalade. Special dietary needs are accommodated, with dairy-free biscuits and gluten-free treats offered upon request. On-site bar stocks a large selection of fine malt whiskies, and the hosts regularly host whisky tastings in the evening.

Location & Activities

The guest house sits a two-minute walk from Grantown-on-Spey's main street and is a base for the Speyside Whisky Trail. Nearby attractions include Cairngorms National Park hiking trails, the Old Spey Bridge, and Grantown Museum. The hotel arranges local whisky tours and provides insider tips for walks, wildlife watching (red squirrels, deer), and exploring the less crowded northern side of the Cairngorms.

Pet-Friendly & Special Touches

Dogs are welcome at Ravenscourt House, and the property offers pet-friendly policies without extra charges. Guests receive a handwritten welcome card and homemade treats on special occasions, such as a chocolate chip loaf for honeymoons. The hosts also provide umbrellas by the door, shoe horns, and a selection of books and board games in the lounges for relaxation.

Entertainment & Relaxation

Evening entertainment includes a fully licensed bar, board game nights, and occasional live music from local singer-guitarists. The guest house has a designated smoking area and outdoor terrace with garden furniture. Guests can also enjoy the on-site collection of over 20 board games, a library of travel guides, and a comfy lounge for socializing with other travelers.
