Lodge a Aboyne

“Hotel did not do breakast - thought I had booked bed and breakfast. Turned on the evening to be told they don't do evening meals, member of staff pointed to a microwave and toaster and referenced a shop that was closed to buy stuff. Next evening, a saturday, they were serving evening meals was told they did server evening meals. Whether they only seve meals at the weekend or short staffed I don't know.”

“What a find from the minute we arrived the friendly staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The food was homemade and delicious and breakfast was brilliant with a big choice”

“Very helpful staff at the front desk and in the restaurant (1852), which is deliciosos as well. Unbeatable location in the Deeside. Recommend!”

“We had a brilliant stay at Tor Na Coille Hotel in Banchory and would happily return. The standout feature was definitely the team there, every member of the team was incredibly warm, welcoming, helpful, and genuinely made us feel looked after from the moment we arrived. Their friendliness and professionalism really made the whole experience special. The hotel itself is lovely, with a relaxing atmosphere and a great location.

“We had a great time at Banchory Lodge. Staff were lovely and so friendly and our little dog was spoiled. He had sausage at breakfast just especially for him. The toom was beautiful a d overlooked the river. The grounds were great too and even saw a heron on the opposite side of river. Folk were seen daily fishing. Banchory is very nice to wander about and we were very lucky with sunny days. Highly recommend staying for a fee days.”

“Un Inn davvero molto bello. Camere non grandissime ma dotate di ogni confort, più qualche accortezza che non fa mai dispiacere. Cucina ottima, bar d'epoca bellissimo, personale veramente piacevole. Colazione ottima nella veranda illuminata dal sole. Lo consiglierei a tutti.”

“The hotel is beautiful and the amenities such as the pool, workout room, etc. are excellent. We enjoyed a lovely dinner in the finer dining restaurant. The service was great at check in, check out and the restaurant. Our room was extremely spacious and very nice. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom spacious and the sitting area very nice. The big negative is there is no air conditioning. I guess I should have assumed this since the building is so old but we have stayed at older places that...

“We loved staying at the Leslie Castle. John & Nicole were great. We came by train and then planned to go by Uber to the Castle and found the one driver was on holiday. John & Nicole were so gracious to come and pick us up. Food was great. Nicole does a history of the castle after dinner each night which was so enjoyable and a tour of the castle. Our room was huge and we loved every minute of it. We walked to the little Hamlet of Leslie and met some of the locals. The weather was great...

“A great place to stay near Stonehaven- only one of the two bedrooms has an en-suite bathroom, the other is served by a bathroom across the hall- Best to check first if an issue”
