Clean Air Comes Naturally In And Around Cairngorm Lodges
Fresh air. Quiet woods. Unplugged stays. There’s no better way to celebrate #CleanAirDay 2025 than escaping to a place where clean air isn’t a luxury – it’s a way of life.
At Cairngorm Lodges & Bothies, we offer something rare: off-grid, eco-conscious self catering stays in the heart of Aberdeenshire’s ancient Scots pine forest. Surrounded by the wild beauty of the Cairngorms National Park, our lodges and bothies provide the perfect environment to breathe deeply, unwind, and reconnect with nature.
Why Breathing Clean Air Matters
Air pollution is one of the biggest environmental health risks in the UK – but nature offers the antidote. Forests naturally filter the air, reduce stress, and improve wellbeing. Our latest Video showcases the forest Lichen which is a clear indicator of the pure air quality that surrounds our guests when they come to stay in our ancient Scots Pine settings.
Our Cairngorm Lodges blend seamlessly into the landscape. While connected to mains water and power for your convenience, our operations are deeply rooted in sustainability. We are keen to manage our resources and are proud holders of a Gold Green Tourism Award, demonstrating our dedication to minimising environmental impact. Away from urban pollutants, you’ll quickly understand why clean air matters so deeply here. The air carries nothing but birdsong, the fresh scent of pine, and true peace.
Award-Winning Eco Stays in the Scottish Highlands
Choosing the dog friendly self catering accommodation at Cairngorm Lodges or Cairngorm Bothies isn’t just about a holiday; it’s about making a positive impact. Every stay directly supports biodiversity and green tourism in Scotland. We’re proud recipients of a Gold Green Tourism Award and also at our Off -Grid Cairngorm Bothies which was recently highlighted in Wanderlust Magazine’s prestigious Top 50 Global Travel Green List 2025.
Our commitment goes beyond awards – it’s about providing meaningful, low-impact holidays that connect you deeply with nature. From waking in a sustainably built, timber-clad Cairngorm Lodge to relaxing by the fire in a solar-powered Cairngorm Bothy, you’re actively contributing to the preservation of this region’s pristine air and invaluable wild spaces that make the Cairngorms National Park so special.
