Elizabeth Lodge is in the perfect location for exploring Aberdeenshire and more. It has everything you need from a washing machine to an iron. A lovely big garden for dogs to roam. We wouldn’t stay again down to the smell, it was like a damp smell and filled the room with the twin beds and into the livingroom. Also the bathroom had a smell, there was a tub to collect water from the radiator and the shower head and bad mat were dirty and needs replaced. Not massive issues and easily fixed.
