After a major overhaul and refurbishment taking well over three years, the Fife Arms opened up again in December, 2018 as an upmarket hotel.
The Flying Stag bar can cater for walkers and skiers after a long day on the hills and slopes and serves two Cairngorm ales on handpull. A feature of the bar is the hundreds of antlers intertwined with a (stuffed) stag seemingly flying out from behind the bar.
The hotel itself has an interior with a strong Scottish narrative and collection of artwork and artefacts. Each bedroom is dedicated to a local place, person or event, such as Robert Louis Stevenson who began to write his classic novel Treasure Island in Braemar and the poet Lord Byron, who recuperated in the area from scarlet fever in 1796.
The hotel features prominent works by leading artists.
The other beer supplied through Cairngorm is often one of the Loch Ness brands - e.g. Wildnerness
Historic Interest
The building dates back to 1856
