Dog-Friendly Nearby

Dell Lodge rests on the edge of Abernethy Nature Reserve, a bustling patch of woodland comprised of ancient pine trees and diverse wildlife. Trek through the secluded forest with your furry friend and scale the mountainous Cairngorms - the stunning views of the dramatic Scottish Highlands which await you at the top are well worth the effort! The gleaming River Nethy provides another picture-perfect path for you to follow. The quaint local town of Nethy Bridge is worth a gander, but if you’re after more options, the city of Inverness is less than an hour by car, providing plenty to sink your teeth into. The imposing Fort George is great for history buffs, or you could venture further afield to the world-famous Loch Ness and snap a photo of the mythical Nessie.
