In the rustic village of Dinnet in the heart of Royal Deeside, this family-run hotel is ideal for exploring the Highlands and tourist and sporting activities in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.



On the edge of the Scottish Highlands, this Victorian hotel is the perfect base from which to explore the natural beauty of Scotland. There are many activities close by, including golf, skiing, fishing and stalking. Glenshee and the Lecht, 2 of the 5 Scottish ski resorts, are both approximately 30 miles from the hotel, with the necessary instruction and ski equipment available for hire.

Beautiful area and the photos don't do the hotel justice. Beautiful porches/balconies, great location for Balmoral or outdoor recreation. Breakfast was terrific and the staff was attentive to our every need. Hope to come and stay here again soon!

    The location was ideal away from the crowds but easy to travel into busier areas. The cottage was lovely and clean and the hosts were very friendly. The off road parking was big enough for our long base work van.

    all expectations for location and facilities were met. staff very welcoming to a very quiet and relaxing hotel. breakfast and dinner very good, nice choice of menu. room cosy and comfortable, only negative was very compact shower and low water pressure. but overall a good find for our 2 night stay in the area close to Balmoral Estate which was our reason for visit.

    Lovely little lodge, very clean. Kitchen had everything you would need and it heated up so quickly and was so cosy. It was really nice to have so much space just for the 2 of us (2 bed lodge). Lovely walk right outside the lodge in really pretty woods and the placement of them was good to ensure privacy from other lodges even though they are close to each other.

    The staff and service was exceptional - nothing was too much trouble. The location of the hotel is beautiful. We had a fab walk around the loch which is stunning at this time of year. When we had no other option but to get our feet really wet by going through a deep puddle (we visited just after Storm Babet) the lovely women on reception took our boots to their drying room which was much appreciated!
