Welcome to our Village...

Boat of Garten, a peaceful Highland village, is set amongst heather clad hills and native woodland. Abundant wildlife, magnificent scenery, many sporting and leisure activities and a traditional Highland welcome await you.

Play our superb 18-hole golf course or fish the Spey. Unique bird watching opportunities abound; tranquil woods and dramatic hillsides to walk, climb or ski. Cycle on excellent tracks and quiet roads or travel on a scenic steam railway - it's all here for your Highland experience.

Ideally located... Lying adjacent to the mighty River Spey in the Cairngorms National Park, Boat of Garten lies in an area of outstanding natural beauty, centrally located in the Highlands of Scotland. The perfect place from which to explore the Highlands or simply unwind.

Sample our unrivalled hospitality with accommodation to suit everyone in and around the village. All are privately owned with each establishment offering their own style of Highland Hospitality.

Come and join in the fun during the festivals or at one of ShowBoaters' famed productions - all held in our new Community Hall
