We had the most wonderful New Year stay at this luxury lodge. From the moment we arrived, everything was absolutely immaculate - beautifully clean, cosy, and so thoughtfully presented. The heavy snowfall made the setting feel truly magical and like something out of a winter fairytale. Although the snow meant we couldn’t get out and about as much as planned, the hosts couldn’t have done more for us. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay, making sure we had everything we needed and more. The hot tub was a real highlight - relaxing in the warmth while taking in the stunning snowy views over Aberdeenshire was unforgettable. We also loved the little extra touches: toasting marshmallows, and having great fun sledging with the equipment they kindly lent us. A truly special place with exceptional hosts. We left feeling relaxed, looked after, and already talking about when we can come back. Highly recommend - a perfect 5-star stay.

Amazing get away! Louise was a wonderful host and accommodated for our 10 dogs… even going as far as making sure there was a freezer on site for dog food! Couldn’t do enough for us and the place is just beautiful and clean. Very relaxing experience.

Firstly the communication with Louise was superb, I had quite a few queries and Louise dealt with them all and put my mind at rest. Her responses were so fast and contained all the information that I needed. The lodge is fabulous, really high end luxury. Extremely clean and welcoming. Everything that you would need for a great holiday is included (and more) and of top notch quality. Cutlery, crockery, pans, utensils, and so much more, are all matching and high quality. Appliances are all top of the range and immaculate. The beds are really comfortable and again the linens are top quality. The bathrooms are beautifully decorated and appointed, really impressive. The outside space is incredible, just sitting and drinking in the views and peace and tranquillity. The hot tub is of the same high end quality and even the addition of plastic flutes, everything is thought of. Dogs and horses are so welcome, the welcome pack for our dog was such a beautiful addition to our welcome. I don't want to spoil the experience by letting out some of the absolutely lovely things that Louise does to make sure that you are made welcome, but she really does go above and beyond to make sure that you are comfortable and happy. If you are concerned about being eco friendly, then Louise and team have thought about everything and I doubt that you would be concerned at any aspect of the accommodation. I just can't recommend the lodge, the interior, the exterior and the team enough, thank you so much for a fabulous holiday.

What an incredible space Louise and her family have created at Logie Newton ... the attention to detail is just amazing, everything possible has been thought of to make your stay feel even more luxurious. The welcome is the of the warmest kind and Louise can’t do enough to ensure you have the best of holidays. We look forward to returning soon.

What a wonderful place to stay! Our long weekend at the Woodland Lodge was amazing. The lodge was so well equipped, everything you could possibly need and more, right down to the refill bottles ready for a walk to the farm shop for a milk top up. Meeting the animals on the farm was wonderful, such gentle creature’s who obviously share all the love they receive from Louise and her family. My lasting memories will include feeling thoroughly spoilt and the view from the lodge, which truly is breath-taking.

We had a fantastic weekend in Woodland lodge. The lodges themselves are immaculate and have everything you need with views to die for! The drying room/storage shed on the side of the lodge is perfect for keeping bikes or any other outdoor gear you bring and so the living space feels like a proper haven rather than the dumping ground we often create on arrival at similar places.
The location is wonderful, quiet roads and tracks can be accessed from the door on 2 wheels, 2 feet or even 4 feet if you bring a horse - we didn’t but they are set up for that too.

We cannot recommend Louise and the Woodland Lodge enough! The lodges are just perfect. Quiet, Scenic & High Quality. Louise met us on arrival, gave us the tour, then left us to it. We found the lodge to be very clean, well presented and extremely cosy. The kids loved the hot tub - and pretty much spent most of their time in there! Louise really has done a fantastic job with the lodge and we would 💯 recommend you book your stay here! We will 💯 return in the near future - and look forward to seeing Louise again.

We recently stayed at Woodlands Lodge and had an absolutely fantastic experience. The accommodation is finished to a remarkably high standard; it’s clear that every detail was thoughtfully designed with quality in mind, way above expectations. The location and views are breathtaking, photos do not do it justice. The hosts went over and above to ensure that we felt welcome and well-cared for throughout our visit. Our 5 year old twin boys were thrilled during our stay. They got to explore the wonderful surroundings by visiting the farm animals, and even got a chance to sit in a tractor. Thorneybank farm shop was amazing, packed with fresh produce and local delights, very welcoming and helpful owner. Overall, we highly recommend Logie Newton Lodges for anyone looking for a high-quality, welcoming retreat. A unique experience in a beautiful and very private location. We can’t wait to return!… without the kids!

We stayed in the 2 bed lodge for my sister’s 60th birthday in ‘March 2025. We have visited the farm on numerous occasions for the fantastic farm rides and watched with great interest as the lodges were being built. The finished result is excellent. The lodges are set up on the hill with panoramic views of Bennachie and surrounding countryside. The lodges are beautifully decorated with everything you could need for a stay. Plenty of room for the 6 guests as well as room for others who came for the afternoon tea. The hot tub was our favourite spot sitting out under the stars enjoying a glass (or 2) of Prosecco. We brought our little westie dog along to visit and he even had a fully enclosed dog park to play in. Looking forward to returning with the horses for a horsey holiday. Thoroughly recommend a stay.

Me and my partner stopped over as we had work in Turriff. It was lovely to come back to a calm, modern, relaxing environment. The lodge was absolutely stunning, huge credit to the owners for the attention to detail. Great place to take pets, would 100% come back again.

Wow! Photos online don’t do it justice. Lodges are finished to such a high standard and have absolutely everything we could possibly need. The views are breath-taking! Love all the special touches, the branded towels, sheep toilet roll holder, slate table mats, gorgeous curtains. Just amazing.

My family and I had the most wonderful break here, staying in the Woodland Lodge. This lodge stands out more than any other we’ve visited. The views are spectacular! We managed to see the northern lights, thanks to a little guidance from Louise, otherwise I’m not sure we would have managed! We used the hot tub every day and the temp was perfect. We toasted marshmallows on the BBQ fire pit at sunset which was amazing. Our dog was made to feel as welcome as us which is important to us. We will definitely return, hopefully soon!

We were lucky enough to stay in the larger lodge, the Woodland Lodge, for a few days last week. It is finished to a very high standard with great attention to detail. We had our wee dog with us, and there was a welcome basket there containing treats, shampoo, a lovely smelling spray, a super dry towel, and bowls were also provided. The kitchen is well equipped and the whole place was immaculate....we were honoured to be the first paying guests at the Woodland Lodge. We would all recommend a stay here. 10/10, a super build and a superior stay.

Having watched with great interest the development of Logie Newton lodges, we booked the Woodland lodge for a family get together last weekend. Despite the bad weather outside from storm Darragh, we had a lovely stay at the lodge. The lodge was modern, cosy and spacious enough for our 5 adults, toddler and dog, with visits from Mike, Louise and Ozzy. Apart from food and personal items everything we needed was provided. The beds and sofas were very comfortable and the indoor climate control was great. Despite the floor being covered in grand daughter Emilie’s toys there was plenty of room for everyone to relax in comfort. I would highly recommend the Logie Newton lodges for anyone looking for great accommodation in a lovely quiet rural location.
