This Is the UK's Largest National Park—How to Visit

"An opulent five‑star hotel known as much for its bold interiors—tartan, taxidermy, and an extensive art collection including works by major artists—as for luxury accommodations; it functions as both a high‑end place to stay and an immersive art‑and‑heritage experience, with multiple on‑site dining options reflecting the property’s hunting‑lodge history." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.

The Best Hotels and Resorts in Europe and the UK: The Gold List 2025

"Reasons to love the Fife Arms? Yes, the 16,000-odd works of art—including a pair of Picassos, Richard Jackson’s neon chandelier, a taxidermy haggis, and watercolors by Queen Victoria and King Charles III. Add in the fact that no one in Braemar seems to have a bad word to say about the Swiss art dealers Ivan and Manuela Wirth, relative outsiders when they took over this tired Victorian coaching inn in Cairngorms National Park. But the real joy of the Fife Arms is that it’s great fun: You’ll find everyone here, from out-of-towners to locals with their dogs—not to mention a team of wry, wise-cracking staff ready to make an event out of everything from whisky tastings at Bertie’s Bar to bracing wild-river swims followed by horse box sauna sessions. From $608. —Toby Skinner" - CNT Editors

What I Packed for a Visit to Scotland's Playful Fife Arms Hotel

"A royal Highland fantasy meets a stay at a faintly bonkers art museum, located in Braemar, near the Balmoral Estate. The hotel features over 16,000 works of art curated by art-dealer owners Ivan and Manuela Wirth, and offers unique experiences like wild swimming, sauna, and whisky tastings."
