Have you ever tried a Breeze ride?
🚲☀️
Fiona joined some friends for a wee cycle recently. The group, led by local Breeze leader, Annie, met at Boat of Garten Community Hall for a circuit up the fire break to “The Yard”, under the railway bridge to Kinchurdy Farm and then turned right along the River Spey to Route 7 cafe in Aviemore. A much-needed bite to eat and refreshing cuppa was had before returning to Boat of Garten along the Speyside Way.
☕️🧁
A great day was had by all - and all on our doorstep!

"Hill View was a lovely cottage - spotless & very cosy. The rooms were large, lots of storage space. Very well equipped kitchen - sharp knives always a joy! The garden was enclosed all the way round & ideal for our dogs to run around - they loved as much as we did! The owner popped in when we arrived to see if all was ok which was nice."

💜 Help us keep the caper safe! 💜

5 facts about the capercaillie...

1️⃣ They're extremely rare - only 𝟱𝟑𝟐 are left in the UK, and 2% of those live in the Deshar Woods, around Boat of Garten.

2️⃣ They mate in April - gathering at leks where the males perform to attract the females. 🦚

3️⃣ They nest in May - the females nest anywhere on the forest floor - including near paths, and they lay around eight eggs which hatch in late May. 🪺

4️⃣ They fledge in September - the chicks wander the forest floor feeding on insects from May to late August. 🐥

5️⃣ They're easily disturbed and may not mate or may abandon their eggs and chicks leaving them vulnerable to predators and the elements.

Together with the Cairngorms Capercaillie Project, the Cairngorms National Park Authority is encouraging birdwatchers, photographers and wildlife guides to Lek It Be, and not to look for capercaillie at this critical time.

We’ve had a dash more of the white stuff, but it doesn’t put the birdies off!
🦆🪿
Up on the hills you might find ptarmigan, while on low ground you can look out for crested t**s, grebe, crossbills and so much more as the weather changes too.

"We stayed in the caravan this time. Even in October it was lovely and cozy. It was immaculately clean, fully equipped and very comfortable. Sitting and looking out over the lochan or watching the birds on the feeders was so relaxing. Fiona is friendly, welcoming and helpful. We also have had holidays in the Croft, a charming cottage. We love coming to Avielochan and hope to be back."

🏡 A home from home - come to The Croft.

Step inside and you can almost go back in time - to that day where Granny made scones and we all sat round the table talking about our days. Maybe you have different memories but The Croft definitely gives you a feeling of being somewhere that’s full of fabby stories.

The Croft really is somewhere you can escape to for a cosy getaway.

Have you been before? Do you have any stories to share?
