The Lodges At Craigendarroch Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"We were amazed at the level of cleanliness in the lodge. All three bathrooms were spotless, and appeared to have been fairly recently upgraded. The beds were probably the comfiest we have ever slept on. The open plan lounge, kitchen, dining area was huge and although the furniture is perhaps a little dated, it was nevertheless very well looked after and in good condition. The kitchen units could perhaps do with being replaced in the next year or two but again have been well looked after, and were very clean; however the oven, microwave and hob have obviously been replaced fairly recently and again were spotless (which is so often not the case in a rental property). There were also 2 allocated parking spaces outside the lodge. Ballater village is a 20 minute walk away, and has a nice mix of cafes and a few shops. We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend and would not hesitate to return to Craigendarroch again."

Cambus o'May Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely hotel with delicious food and a beautiful, peaceful setting. You should stay here. We stayed in a little stone cottage separate from the hotel an easy 5-minute walk up the hill. It used to be the dog kennels. In fact, the low stone walls topped with iron fencing that served as the two outside pens of the kennel are still there, as are the doggie doors -- tho’ these are firmly closed. A pair of French doors open onto a very large walled garden, which we had to ourselves. It's the middle of being replanted. Most of it is mown grass. It was a peaceful place to stroll and watch the birds. The cottage itself is very cozy. The decor is homey, though a little worn. The bed is very comfortable. The shower and sink have been modernized and the wall tiled. However, the toilet is a large Victorian affair that's showing its age and has no lid. It was the only aspect of the cottage I didn’t care for. However, given the rest of the bathroom remodel, I expect they’re planning on replacing it. The heater and towel warmers were lovey. There are so many plusses: The hotel is very near the lovely town of Ballater, Balmoral Castle, and woodland trails. Paths behind the hotel weave through a wood of native pines and gorgeous azaleas and rhododendrons. The staff is friendly and helpful. We ate dinner there one night and the food was delicious -- expertly prepared and very fresh. The terrace in front of the hotel looks out over the garden and the woods beyond."
