Situated in Alford in the Grampian region with Craigievar Castle nearby, North Mains Cottage - Craigievar Castle features accommodation with free private parking. The property is around 37 km from Huntly Castle, 43 km from Aberdeen Art Gallery & Museum and 44 km from Aberdeen Harbour. The property is non-smoking and is located 45 km from Beach Ballroom.

Beautiful location, it was perfect for what we wanted as a base. As the castle was closed for renovations we had complete peace and quiet. When we booked we were unsure about whether the Interior would be big enough but were very pleasantly surprised by how spacious it felt. We would totally recommend it.

    The location is beautiful. So peaceful. The house is extremely comfortable like a home from home. It is one of my favourite places to stay ever! The hosts are fabulous. Thoughtful and provide so many little extras. It is a well equipped house. We were visiting family and were able to have them round for dinner because the house is welcoming with a well equipped kitchen. The cosy fireplaces make it sociable and pretty special. We all kept oversleeping because it is so quiet and comfortable.

    The location was exceptional. Wonderful views of castle and surrounding countryside. The grounds were a joy which our dog also really enjoyed. A really great base to return to after long days out discovering the Highlands

    If I just say everything was amazing then that is the bottom line, the welcome, the brownies, the kind thought of provisions in the fridge and hot water bottles, the hot tub, the garden, the ability to relax, the deers you could watch from the window, the open fire place, the gift shop and bistro in the village,…..

    Fantastic location - not far from local attractions and amenities, a really cosy cottage and the hot tub is always a plus. The hosts were responsive and friendly and provided us with everything we needed for the duration of the stay. The cottage is pet-friendly with a dog bed provided. Would highly recommend it.

    Had a brilliant stay at Brainley Croft. John and Mel are really wonderful hosts and have made the Croft an incredibly comfortable place to stay. The area is very peaceful and quiet - a great break away up north. the hot tub and bar are a fantastic added extra to this great place.
