The Coylumbridge Hotel FUNHOUSE

If you’ve got kids under 12 and the weather’s doing its usual Scottish thing, this is genuinely one of the better calls in Aviemore. The Funhouse at Coylumbridge has soft play, slides, and an arcade — enough to keep different ages busy without everyone losing interest at the same time. Parents can actually see what’s going on, which makes a difference, and there are picnic tables, loos, and a baby changing station so you’re not scrambling. It’s enclosed, it’s dry, and honestly it’s saved a fair few rainy holidays in this area.
