Additional Notes
- If you intend to arrive at the Macdonald Aviemore Resort earlier than the 15th May, or stay later than the 20th of May, then you should book only the ADDITIONAL nights independently. In order to ensure that you won't need to change rooms, you must specify the Macdonald Morlich Hotel at Macdonald Aviemore Resort. Please send your booking details to seismix@abdn.ac.uk if you fall into this category. Bookings can be done at: http://www.macdonaldhotels.co.uk/our-hotels/macdonald-aviemore-resort/morlich-hotel-4star/
- If you wish to bring children in addition to a partner, then special arrangements will need to be made with regard to accommodation, as the packages above do not allow for this option. Please send an email detailing your requirements to seismix@abdn.ac.uk.
- Check-in time at the Macdonald Aviemore Resort is from 2 pm (although rooms are not guaranteed until 4 pm), and check-out time is no later than 11 am.
