"A lovely hotel with delicious food and a beautiful, peaceful setting. You should stay here. We stayed in a little stone cottage separate from the hotel an easy 5-minute walk up the hill. It used to be the dog kennels. In fact, the low stone walls topped with iron fencing that served as the two outside pens of the kennel are still there, as are the doggie doors -- tho’ these are firmly closed. A pair of French doors open onto a very large walled garden, which we had to ourselves. It's the...

Loch Kinord Hotel

"We had a lovely time at Loch Kinord. We especially enjoyed the hiking right from the property. Our cabin was cozy and perfect for our stay. The food in the restaurant was very enjoyable."

Banchory Lodge Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Balmoral Arms

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were just lovely and very friendly. The food at the restaurant was very good and the rooms were modern and clean. I would definitely stay again if in the area."

The Boat Inn

8/10 Good

"Lovely and quiet, stay in the chalet if you can, luxury . Food was good and tasty. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Plenty places to sit for food, pub, restaurant or function suit upstairs. Private parking."

Sweet Donside Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"The Sweet Donside Cabins are a little piece of heaven in Scotland, everything we could possible need was provided, we stayed in the Little Love Nest and the way it was decorated was absolutely amazing the added touches of pictures and ornaments was second to none, Lizzie and Brent are amazing hosts. Everything was spotless, the hot tub was ready as soon as we arrived and was such a treat with the lights all around the decking area. Each cabin is very private even though they are next to each other. We will definitely be back!"

Haughton Arms Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were very helpful and the breakfast was delicious. Also enjoyed dinner in the evening. Dog friendly, so our dog could have meals with us in the bar lounge."

Historic Fairytale Lickleyhead Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Really enjoyed your stay - such a special place!"

The Commercial Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The small village of Tarland is very quiet, so we were surprised at just how good the Commercial Hotel is. I understand that a lot of walkers & cyclists use the hotel and I'm not surprised, as it is in beautiful surroundings and only 5 miles from Aboyne. We received a very pleasant welcome, and our room was large, beautifully furnished and very quiet. Whilst we stayed for 2 nights, circumstances meant we only had breakfast although on our last evening, we saw that the restaurant was quite popular. Breakfast was special with a large choice of cook to order food and lots of tea or coffee. We will stay here again and recommend it to any one looking for a nice hotel in the area."

Cambus o'May Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the Kennels apartment and it was ideal, the most dog friendly accommodation we have come across. The food in the restaurant was delicious, and the staff were lovely. Definitely going to stay again."
