The property was extremely comfortable and immaculately clean. Theresa our host was so friendly and made sure our stay was enjoyable. She even let us bring in a Chinese takeaway and eat it in her dining room which was over and above anything we would have expected. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the bed extremely comfortable. Toiletries were provided and there was also a nice choice of tea and coffee with kettle, coffee machine and fridge provided. There was even a wee dram of whisky waiting for us. The breakfast was the best we’ve ever had in a B&B with the best of produce including homemade jams. We enjoyed our stay so much and would not hesitate to visit again and would definitely recommend to others. Thank you again Theresa

Abbeyfield was lovely to stay at. Rooms spacious, clean and had a home away from home feel. Nice touch with gowns and slippers. There was a lounge which was comfortable for drinks and the dining area has a small fridge where you can put a few things. The breakfasts were incredible with a great selection. Location is so convenient with a short walk to pubs and restaurants.
The host Kira is so warm and welcoming. Loved our chats and local advice for the area. Great communication around booking etc as well.

There is only 1 Bar in Dufftown and it’s basic but has a dart board but that’s your lot.now as others lost business to Covid. There’s an Indian which is average and take away which is basic. Advise to book places to eat in Aberlour to avoid disappointment. Whisky tours only accept online bookings.

The people were friendly.
The people were friendly. Unfortunately the tourist information office had been shut down. There were plenty of distilleries nearby if you had a car. There were good walking tracts if you had a medium level of fitness. There is only one pub as far as I know but I would recommend the restaurant as the food which was excellent.

Charming little town in the heart of whisky country!
Charming little town in the heart of whisky country! Glenfiddich Distillery with its excellent visitor facilities situated in the town and several other distilleries open to view in the locality. An interesting ruin, Balvenie Castle, to explore on the outskirts of the town. Dufftown also boasts its own heritage railway which is definitely worth a visit. Beautiful walks and lovely scenery around the town.

Only a few restaurants in and around town make sure you reserve ahead. If you plan on going to the distillery's or the Speyside cooperage also make sure you book ahead. Dufftown golf course is public and is nearby and will rent you decent clubs. Great course. ACE taxis if you had too much good Whisky.

We stayed for 8 nights during the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival and the location was pretty central for many of the events. Lots of lovely places to visit during the day in the surrounding area.
Loved the Dufftown Glassworks, a little coffeeshop come art gallery, and the Seven Stills restaurant was extremely good for a special meal.
There are only three places left in Dufftown serving hot food in the evening - even the local chippie has closed down. The only cafe, The Coffee Pot, opens at 9am (10am at the weekend), which was too late for us for breakfast, and closes at 3pm, so we didn't use it during our visit. Everything else has closed down and there are no signs of any other businesses moving in to take their place. The only other option for an evening meal is to go further afield, and the buses stop running very early evening, so you have to either drive or take a cab. We were there for the whisky festival, so driving was obviously out of the question, and the taxi cabs were totally booked up (because it was the whisky festival...). We were fortunate that we had cooking facilities at our accommodation and could make do.
Pretty disappointed with the public transport. I believe that they put on extra services in previous years for the festival, but not this year. Even one single late bus would have been useful - on the biggest week of the year for tourism the last bus leaving Elgin for Dufftown was 6.35pm!

The town is beautiful and clean, but we couldn’t find a restaurant which was open at around 14:30 on a Tuesday after we finished our whiskey tour. None of the nearby castles were open. I’d avoid being there on a Monday or Tuesday as most restaurants only open on Wednesdays.
This was our favorite B&B of the whole 2 week trip and if we could give it more than 10/10 we would! Linda is a phenomenal host and really made us feel welcome. Rooms were spacious, very clean, and had both all the amenities plus a few extra touches! Breakfast was delicious and plentiful, and had vegetarian options which were excellent. It is very well located in Dufftown, which is central to all of Speyside and especially good for the Whiskey Trail if you’re a fan of whiskey. We’d definitely stay here again!
The Conval House is an exceptional to stay. The proprietor, Linda' was was a truly lovely lady who was most helpful to me in my visit. She reminded me of the joy in staying at a Bed & Breakfast rather than an impersonal hotel. In addition to first rate accommodations, the breakfast was truly exceptional. First time I ever had cooked cherry tomatoes--delicious. The bottom line is that I couldn't think of anything I didn't like about Conval House. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
I visited with my Dad on 22nd July 2021, first class B & B, Theresa made us feel so welcome , felt like a home from home and spotlessly clean, comfiest bed ever! Best B & B Ive ever stayed in, better than most hotels! the home made flap jacks and wee decanter of whisky in the room was an extra special touch , we will definitely be back !
Beautiful, spacious apartment in the heart of Dufftown . well,placed for exploring Speyside . Tonnes of room for a large party and such comfortable accommodation . Spotlessly clean , well equipped and homely . Have stayed in many accommodations in the Highlands and The Coffee Pot was one of the best ! We will be back !
The location was excellent in terms of access to the area distilleries. Dufftown is a nice, quaint town. Very quiet. The Cottage was very nice, well decorated and clean. The bathroom was up to date and the kitchen was very well done and well stocked. The on-site laundry facilities were a great bonus!

This was the perfect property for us. The hosts were absolutly the best. The breakfast was to order and better than most high end hotels we have stayed at. If you are going to Dufftown, this is the place to stay.
The location was perfect for seeing Dufftown and exploring Speyside. The owners were so very friendly and helpful with questions. They really knew the area and were excited to offer ideas for seeing the town.
Great location in the quaint town of Dufftown. Three bedrooms, including 1 en-suite. Friendly messages received from the owner. Adequately supplied kitchen with plates, cutlery, coffee, and fresh milk.
We were blown away upon arrival. Spacious, clean, great amenities, location. We are honestly thinking of a return to Speyside and staying here for a number of days, making this our basis of operation.
Excellent breakfast, perfect location, superb owners. We feel very lucky to have found Gowanbrae for our stay in Dufftown. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing trip to the area.
It was incredible. Very close to Dufftown and in the middle of Speyside. Super accommodation, the hosts really very nice and accommodating and the whiskey selection is great.
