Fantastic facilities, charming house, beautiful surroundings and very helpful and friendly hosts making you feel at home.
The house is charming, has two lounge areas with real fireplaces, well equipped kitchen, big dinning area and an outdoor area. Place was nice and warm despite freezing temperatures outside.
The area is perfect for hikes and only a few minutes from the Glenshee ski centre.
Tim and Helen are wonderful hosts with plenty of knowledge and tips about things to do in the area.

Good family room, breakfast was great and made to order with help yourself extras. Easy walk into central town. Nice sitting room available with little pay bar for a drink. Great water pressure in shower.

Nestled amongst the mountains with paths and tracks leading all over what’s not to like? Sadly, the general facilities here have gone. No shop for example. One place did have a sign out for coffee, but there could be an opportunity here for someone.
Worth climbing up the Cateran Trail heading south to get stunning views looking down on the village.
Also visit the stone circle, old bridge and the church. Just soak up the atmosphere!

Cannot fault the scenery but you must be a keen hiker or golfer to spend time here. You are miles from anywhere and only one main road, the A93, which is awful. Days out mean a challenging drive on roads with steep climbs, sharp bends and constant gear changes. This can be tiring and a little frightening at night. Three nights was one too many here.

Beautiful peaceful setting, some lovely period features and very friendly staff, but needs a bit of work done on it. We had moveable heaters in our room, but still little chilly. Bathrooms could be doing with upgrade.

A great area for walkers or hikers & bird watchers & if you like peace & quiet.
The Wifi was not great where stayed. In these modern times most people need Wifi to keep in touch with family & friends.
Ballater is a nice place to visit & some good walks & well sign posted.
Nice cafes & shops there too. You need a car together there. Dunked is also a pretty place e to visit.

Go when the snow is there.
Go when the snow is there. We managed to get over the summit in fairly heavy now without 4WD but it was a bit dicy. If it is snowing and windy also the drfiting can cause a whiteout at a moments notice.
Glenshee is a worthwhile stopover while jouneying to/from the north.

The castle was the perfect place to spend my birthday. Our room had been upgraded and the hotel staff arranged for a plate with “Happy birthday “ written on it surrounded by chocolate covered fruit. It was a lovely surprise which l really appreciated. The castle itself was beautiful and the surrounding parkland. Our room was perfect with a four poster bed and looked out to spectacular views.The food was scrumptious and the staff friendly and attentive.
This place confounds an easy description. The kind woman that greeted us was wonderful. The apartment on the top floor was really lovely, with great views and lots of space to relax (assuming you aren't over 6' tall). The grounds around the hotel are absolutely stunning, and the available walks through the countryside (at all levels of difficulty) are an added bonus. A truly wonderful spot.
The location was absolutely breathtaking. The castle hotel was beautiful as well with the old world feel. The staff was the best and took wonderful care of us making us feel at home. The dining options were sumptuous - definitely 5 star. Lots of fascinating history regarding the property too. The most relaxing vacation we've ever enjoyed. We look forward to returning on the near future.
Room was very comfortable, with a great bed and spacious bathroom. The highlight was the restaurant - outstandingly good food at reasonable prices - both dinner and breakfast were excellent. We also enjoyed the cosy and welcoming bar. The staff were friendly and attentive. it's in a stunning location, and the walks from the hotel are spectacular.
This is a fantastic hotel tucked away in a spectacular and remote location. There were a couple of roaring fires in log burners in the spacious entrance hall cum lounge which were very welcome on a damp day, staff were helpful, our room was quirky and individual but very cosy, food was excellent. A wonderful place to stay.
The hotel is a splendid Scottish castle hotel in a fabulous location. There are several fantastic walks direct from the hotel and there is an on-site golf course. The food was really good and the staff were very friendly and professional. The room rate for the hotel was very competitive.
Amazing property at the Scottish highland. The shared bathroom is very clean and the rooms are spacious. The location is ideal if you’re planning to ski in Glenshee. You can rent the ski gear from the lodge owner too with a cheaper price compared to the ski center. Highly recommended
Grounds and hotel itself are absolutely beautiful, and the staff were exceptional in making us feel welcome and looked after, even during a major power outage.
The personal touch was also excellent, it felt like they wanted to get to know us without being intrusive.
Both the hotel and grounds are lovely. The room was relaxed and refined. I absolutely enjoyed my stay. I also partook of a three course dinner on the property and it was the best meal of my entire trip.
really good value for money, warm showers, basic but comfy rooms, very well equipped kitchen and close to glenshee skiing. Host was friendly and readily available, had an overall good stay
Really loved the immersive feel of this hotel. The exterior, setting, fires and old billiard bar table all contributed to a lovely experience. The staff were excellent.
Location was very nice, quiet and relaxing. Hotel staff were nice, friendly and trying their hardest. Bed was comfortable and the food was well made & delicious.
The location is perfectly remote, so it is very peaceful. Looks of the hotel is amazing and also surrounding views. Staff is very laid back and very friendly.
