The Speyside Centre is proud to be a family-run, multi-purpose destination at the heart of the Cairngorms. Founded on a love for nature, community, and Highland tradition, we have built a centre that offers not only quality food and products but also memorable experiences for every visitor.
Lovely friendly helpful staff. Designated area to eat indoors if you have a dog(s) with you. Fantastic selection of plants, gardening equipment and gifts.
Food was delicious and very reasonably priced with a fantastic selection of options.

A lovely garden centre with a restaurant. The plants are well worth buying if you want to ensure they are suitable for highland weather. The staff are really helpful and provide good impartial advice. The restaurant service is good with homemade good at reasonable prices.

I remember this as the Heather Centre (old name before the fire and rebuild). Nice big and welcoming restaurant seating area inside and outside. Delicious food, we love the breakfast, and a small play area outside for children. Nice surroundings as you’re surrounded by trees and can often see squirrels etc.
