We liked the peaceful atmosphere, the facilities, the location and the sustainable focus. Such as the little table in the common area for trading food and other goods to reduce waste.

This is a hidden gem. This Guest House is alive with history and charm. It's central location in Balloter makes it an easy walk to anywhere in the village, as well as a quick journey to Balmoral and other area attractions. The town is wonderful for shopping, and the hosts are just plain delightful. Stephen makes a great breakfast, and Beth is attentive to anything you could need. Their knowledge of the area and other historical details they share may have you enticed for a bit during breakfast. Can't say enough good about them ! The bed and room sizes are fantastic. The Pub down the street is amazing and welcomes the best behaved doggies in the world. Finest food from India we've experienced was a block-and-a-half away. Wish we could have stayed longer !!

Lovely little place with high-quality furnishings. Just a short walk from the middle of Ballater but feels quiet and peaceful. The lounge/dining room catches the late afternoon sun and has a view up to the oak woods of Craigendarroch hill. It's quite a small place (the reasonable price reflects this - it's in a 'premium' part of the Highlands) but the quality of the armchair, sofa and dining chairs would put many a grand country hotel to shame and made for a relaxing and memorable stay.

Spacious and quiet. Quirky decor with 20 stags heads down the corridor. First place we stayed that had both a corkscrew and a way to make non instant coffee.

    It was situated centrally for travel around the local area. Placed inside a small little Scottish village which was scenic and beautiful. The hotel itself was fabulous and I was very welcomed from the minute I stepped to the front door. It made a huge part of my holiday. Would absolutely stay again in the future. Loved my little road trip up North.

    A great location and short walk to the village for walking around and access to restaurants and cafes. The B&B is in a large old house\inn, a little dated unless that is your preference for something a little more steeped in history vs, a little more up to date and modern amenities. Breakfast was excellent including a made to order hot breakfast if desired.

    The location is great - walking distance from the centre of the village. It was very clean. There is good WiFi. We didn't need it, but it's wheelchair accessible (although not for cooking, so you'd need to eat out or have someone with you).

    In the heart of the village opposite free parking so the location was absolutely perfect. The owners are a lovely couple and they extended a warm welcome, were friendly throughout and cook a fantastic breakfast. The bed was comfortable, the room was warm and well ventilated. Not only that it had a spacious bathroom with a powerful shower. We will definitely be back!

    Very friendly owner. Our room was spacious and clean , and breakfast was delicious in the conservatory overlooking the back garden. The view out of our window at the property opposite was beautiful. The property was within walking distance of the village centre. There was plenty of off street parking.
