Cairngorm Gliding Club
Where to stay
Our club is situated within the spectacular Cairngorms National Park, a popular tourist destination. In normal times there is no shortage of hotels, B&Bs, guest houses and self-catering cottages in the local area, but many are currently closed for the duration of the virus epidemic. We show here a few samples of what is available "in no particular order" but not with any guarantee that they are open for visitors at the moment. If you would like your business to be listed here, please contact the Secretary via email.
Remember the club has no bunkhouse, and facilities on the airfield for camping and caravans are very limited at the best of times. Until further notice members and non-members alike should ensure they leave attendance details at the launch point caravan for contact tracing purposes.
