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.

The hotel is located in a beautiful part of the valley, with breathtaking views wherever you go for a walk. The bed was comfortable for two nights. The towels are large and fluffy. We found an amazing local guide called Eddie Thomson, his company is called Heartland Tours Ltd. I highly recommend it, it was amazing!!

The space of the main room, the Air Hockey table.
The hot tub was good too.
The views are stunning!
We saw deer on the second morning.

Everything was excellent, room, staff and and a very good breakfast! I had a lot of fishing equipment which was easily moved into the room via the disabled access door and a very convenient lift. All good!

The room (triple) was spacious. Great location. Great breakfast with lots of choices. Staff was wonderful. Pool was good, jacuzzi could have been warmer.

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.

Staff was amazing, super friendly and helpful. We really felt looked after, one of the managers went out of his way to speak to everyone in the lobby to check on the stay. Food was excellent, hotel was very clean and comfortable. The couple fireplaces in the lounge area really added to the cozy feel. The proximity to the Glenshee ski centre was excellent (5miles), there were also a few available walks around the hotel.
The actual stay was great - we had a dog with us and were given a room the library to dine in. The meal was excellent in parts - a bit ho-hum in others. Wine was good and whiskey advice also good. Hotel had a leak which cut power to the wing where our wonderful room was so we were moved to a less interesting room unfortunately, but were promised a discount on the bill for the inconvenience.
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 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
The staff are really attentive and friendly, I felt like I was not staying at a hotel but staying as a guest in a Manor house, being able to sit in any of the rooms having a drink next to roaring fires was wonderful.
The food was fantastic in the restaurant, we really enjoyed it
Location superb. Food excellent. Service excellent., all staff were efficient, helpful and friendly.
Hotel was very dog friendly, and as dogs are not allowed in the restaurant, they set up a table for us in an adjoining room. We felt spoiled.
Everything from the drive through the Spittle of Glenshee to get there, the welcoming staff, clean rooms and excellent food. Bartender, who was visiting a member of the staff and ‘ put to work’ along with his dog Jaygo was excellent.
The hotel is a lovely old building with lots of character, it was a nice treat form the usual hotels, it would have been nice to have stayed for longer to truly appreciate the experience. Great breakfast.
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
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.
