Well located, clean and good value.

This is a lovely lodge, clean and well located for the area. The only downside with a family of four was patchy wifi (something working off the mobile signal rather than a landline might be better).

Lovely stay in a lovely location

Thank you for a lovely stay. 6 of us stayed at the lodge and it worked really well for us. The lodge was spotless and a great base to visit our family across Aberdeenshire. Lots of birds and we even spotted a dear out of the window too. One word of warning, our satnav took us across the Cairn O Mount to get there. This is a very twisty, high mountain road. It would be a beautiful drive if this is your thing, but we found it a bit too much for us in our van so we had to turn around and came via Stonehaven instead. Not a problem at all, just worth knowing if you don't have a head for heights or are travelling in the winter . Thank you to Ursula for a lovely stay, we'd definitely stay again if we are in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Ursula George

Originally from London, we moved to Scotland 30+ years ago - and still feel as if we're on holiday in this beautiful area!
With four children we have spent many holidays in the UK and abroad, usually self catering, so we know what you need for a comfortable, happy family holiday!

Why they chose this property

We live very close to the lodges and absolutely love Royal Deeside. Mountains, rivers, castles, wildlife - and a beautiful coastline only 30 minutes drive away - it really has it all!
So much to do for adults and children alike - or you can just cosy up in the lodge and relax.

What makes this property unique

The lodges are spacious and comfortable with a covered deck area for eating outside and plenty of space to run around and let off steam. The location is peaceful and rural with cows in the field across the road, yet less than five minutes drive takes you to the charming little town of Banchory with all amenities.
We are on hand to advise on things to do, whatever your interest - so just ask!
