Forces Manor — a one-of-a-kind, self-service hotel offering comfort, character, and complete independence in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park.
Our model is simple:
We provide the space — you set the pace.
No reception desks. No dress codes. Just a warm welcome, a soft bed, and the freedom to come and go as you please.
Whether you’re here for respite, reunion, adventure training, or just a solid night’s kip, we’ve got a space for you. From private en-suite rooms to family suites, dormitory bunks, and even outdoor pitches for tents and campers — we welcome all ranks, all roles, and all reasons for visiting.
Open to:
Veterans, serving personnel, forces families, and civilians seeking adventure with a side of honour.
Flexible Stays
Come for a night, stay for a week, or settle in for as long as you need.
We welcome short breaks, overnight stops, or extended stays for respite, recovery, or relocation.
Whether you’re a solo veteran, a serving family on the move, or a civilian guest with a love for military heritage — you’ll feel right at home here.
Book as an individual, a group, or hire the whole facility for your unit.
