Turn off, zone out and settle into the peace of nature
A six-acre hideaway surrounded by the glorious expanse of the Cairngorms National Park, the Lazy Duck features three gorgeous wooden eco-cabins. Choose from the Duck’s Nest, a luxury lakeside hide that offers great wildlife-spotting and photography opportunities; the entirely off-grid Woodman’s Hut, buried deep in centuries-old pine forest; or the Homestead Eco cabin, which has a stargazing window above the bed. Mountain biking, pony-trekking, archery and 4×4 driving are all on offer nearby, and Aviemore is just a 20-minute drive away.
