Grantown On Spey

We don't think we're that 'forgotten' 😉 but we'll take the compliments! Thank you Rabbie's for acknowledging our town and everything it offers 🩵

"Grantown-on-Spey is a brilliant choice for travellers who want to experience the Highlands beyond the usual tourist hotspots. Located in the Cairngorms National Park, the town offers easy access to forests, rivers, walking routes and wildlife, making it the perfect place for outdoor lovers seeking adventure. It’s a refreshing alternative for Brits who want a staycation that feels scenic, restorative and a little more off the beaten track."

The lupins are currently flowering along the Spey🪻

This usually signals summer, although judging by yesterday's hail storm, it doesn't always feel that way 🫣 Nevertheless, if you're in Grantown at the minute, make sure you take a trip down to the the river for a cheery display of colour 💜

Share your lupin photos with us 👇

Summer’s coming, and Grantown is calling.

We may be biased, but taking a break in Grantown, especially during a sunny spell, beats any other holiday destination. From our beautiful High Street full of unique and independent businesses, through our stunning community woodland Anagach Woods, and down to the gentle Spey where the mayflies, salmon and heron hang out - this is a place where you can truly relax.
