Fishing breaks

Salmon reel

If you are looking for fishing and accommodation the Lodge on the Loch is THE most scenic place to stay whilst Salmon fishing the River Dee, One of the worlds great Salmon rivers. As well as being close to the river we also offer outstanding Spa and Leisure facilities to keep the non fishers in the party (and fishers of course when they have the time) very well pampered and catered for. This family run, Wood Lodge building offers open plan public areas with spectacular views out over the Loch and the Cairngorms National Park, a variety of restaurant food from Bar Suppers to Fine Dining, an excellent wine cellar and a great selection of Malt Whiskies. Situated just outside Aboyne  we are ideally located for the Lower, Middle and Upper beats of the Dee, including nearby Kincardine, Dess, Birse and Aboyne.

Everything for the angler is provided including rod storage and boot drying, and flexible meal times. We can also provide packed lunches  and riverside meals if required. The Lodge has 6 Double en-suite bedrooms all with loch side views and two suites, for groups of fishermen and larger families. We have been awarded a Gold Green Tourism award and accredited 4 star by both the AA and Visit Scotland.  All bedrooms are of a high standard throughout with free WiFi. We also have our own 9 hole Golf Course and Driving Range for those days when you need a small break from the river. Whether travelling as an individual or a group, you will be guaranteed a warm welcome at the Lodge on the Loch and do not forget to ask about our special 7 day Fishermans rates for our rooms and suites that are not promoted elsewhere!
