As the temperature dips Scotland’s landscape takes on a whole new breathtaking dimension. From snow-capped mountains to frosted Caledonian pines, our resort’s scenic surroundings in both the Cairngorms and the Trossachs will leave you truly mesmerised.
Love the outdoors? Enjoy crisp winter walks around our neighbouring lochs or take the family on a forest trail. How about a day on the piste navigating 30km of ski runs on CairnGorm Mountain?
If you’re looking for some unique gifts whilst away than visit one of the many Christmas markets around Scotland or take your pick from some of our famous whisky or gin distilleries. Their tours are fascinating, especially in Speyside and you can always invest in a few ‘souvenirs’ whilst visiting!
If you’re lucky enough to be here for Hogmanay then get ready for a serious new year celebration, so much so that the whole country takes two days off! Wherever you choose to celebrate the start of 2019 you’ll never be too far from a ceilidh, some whisky and some fireworks!

MACDONALD SPEY VALLEY RESORT
Everyone should experience a little Highland hospitality during their lifetime,
when could be better than over Christmas and New Year? Spey Valley is our
largest resort in Scotland and within walking distance of Aviemore. If you love

bringing your skis it’s well worth a trip on the famous mountain funicular railway
just for a hot chocolate in the restaurant at the top. We’d also recommend a
visit to see The Cairngorm Reindeer but avoid Christmas Eve as they’re busy
helping Santa…

Malaga at
Christmas
One of the best things about the Costa Del Sol is that it’s a truly year-round destination. You might not need to pack any sunscreen, but the days are far warmer, longer, drier and brighter than the UK – the perfect time for sightseeing, shopping and exploring the wider region.
If you like feeling festive away from home, you’ll still find Christmas trees and lights in every coastal town. Even the most traditional white Spanish houses will be adorned with Christmas motifs. Browse the many festive markets whilst enjoying the sound of traditional Andalusian carols as you shop.
Finally, try and schedule a visit to Malaga whilst you’re in Spain. With regular trains to Malaga from Fuengirola this city knows how to celebrate Christmas. Their annual lights and music show is spectacular, and you can stock up on beautiful local crafts in the region’s largest Christmas market.
All you have to do is choose which resort…
