There’s something for everyone at the Speyside Centre, come for one reason, stay for plenty of others! We have an extensive garden centre and shop, restaurant with a varied and child-friendly menu options as well as a children’s play area, wildlife viewing area and soon to open experiences such as the Peat Reek visitor experience.
Wildlife Viewing Area
Well visited by red squirrels and a huge variety of birds, the wildlife viewing area is nestled beneath a weeping larch tree and has two sheltered huts with ample seating enabling you to relax and watch Strathspeys furry and feathered friends in a natural setting.
Toddlers Play Area
The little ones love the Toddlers Play Area, it’s tucked underneath the birch trees next to the Garden Centre and there’s swings, a slide, fort and play hut with decking, it’s a safe space for the wee ones to play while Mum and Dad browse around the rest of the Centre.
