Close to the River Dee, this property is in a great location to visit Balmoral and Aberdeen.. In an area renowned for superb fishing and golf, this wonderful property could not be in a better location! Just 50 yards from the rushing waters of the lovely River Dee and very close to Banchory Golf Course, this spacious and very comfortable accommodation makes full use of its situation, with patio doors from the living room offering an uninterrupted view of the river itself - where fishing may be arranged with the owner (subject to availability). With all modern facilities, it ensures a very relaxing stay in total comfort.
Banchory is a superb base for a varied holiday with Crathes Castle and garden, and Castle Fraser both well worth a visit. Also boasting two golf courses in the town, there is a wider choice in the surrounding area with excellent hillwalking and skiing available in the Cairngorms just a short distance away. A short drive leads to Ballater, where Queen Victoria first arrived in Desside in 1848. Although the line has long since closed, visitors can still visit the elegant train station in the heart of the town centre. Ballater is also an excellent base for local walks and outdoor activities. A popular walk leads to Lochnagar, the much painted and written about mountain by the current Prince of Wales.
Balmoral is easily accessible for the day and the local distillery at Lochnagar is well worth a visit, with tours and tasting of the local malt available. For an alternative day out, Aberdeen - Scotland’s third largest city, is well worth a visit. Many of the parks have been transformed into ‘flower gardens’ and are some of the most beautiful in Britain. There is also an excellent choice of restaurants and pubs and the livley city harbour comes alive in the evening with a number of theatres. Shops ½ mile.. 2 steps to entrance.

Very good

Lovely location, with the river gurgling at the bottom of the garden.
Warm and comfortable. If you intend to walk to and from Banchory centre, there are no street lights or pavements on the final part of your walk. Taxi @ £8.50. Great base for golf, castles and cycling.

Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
This is an incredible setting, and I could wake up every day to the view from the porch! But, some attention is needed in the kitchen to address the basics, and a remodel would put this place on a solid 5* across the board.
I also have a bit of an issue with not knowing that the owner was going to be remodeling the adjacent home. The noise was fairly well governed, but on two days kept us from enjoying the property. There is room for much better communication or perhaps some accommodation by the owner during the construction.
