"Everything was very easy, nice and clean. We either weren't told or missed that there were pool hours limiting children after 6pm which was disappointing when the pool was one of the reasons we chose the location. It was closed anyway due to a hornet nest. The the unexpected pub quiz was fun at the restaurant."

When is the best time to go to Aviemore?
The best time to go to Aviemore largely depends on whether you prefer winter sports or summer outdoor activities.

For winter sports enthusiasts, the period from December to March is ideal. This is when the Cairngorm Mountain ski area typically has its best snow conditions, offering skiing, snowboarding, and other winter pursuits. The town itself takes on a festive, bustling feel during this season, with many hotels and restaurants suiting those enjoying the snow.

If you're interested in hiking, cycling, water sports, or wildlife watching, the summer months from June to August are perfect. The weather is generally milder and drier, and the days are long, allowing for extended exploration of the Cairngorms National Park. You can enjoy paddleboarding on Loch Morlich, exploring the many walking trails, or spotting local wildlife.

Spring (April-May) and Autumn (September-November) offer a quieter experience with fewer crowds. During these shoulder seasons, you might find better value on accommodation.
Where can I find the best nightlife in Aviemore?
Aviemore's nightlife is generally relaxed, focusing on pubs, bars, and a few spots with live music. It's more about a cosy drink after a day outdoors than late-night clubbing.

Just off Grampian Road, there are a couple of larger hotel bars that are open to non-residents. These often have a slightly more upmarket feel and sometimes feature entertainment like local bands or ceilidhs, particularly during peak seasons.
