Great to have Asgard secure cycle shed taking 4 drop bar bikes. Two had to be locked outside as no space inside for them. Fridge very small for 6 people so just come prepared to shop every few days. Owners very friendly and location for access to lovely walks and cycles great.

Lovely place to spend a week end. Great walks and good eating venues.The couple who own property very helpful and pre warned us regarding kitchen ceiling which did not spoil our stay. The property was very clean and had all facilities which we required. Fridge is a little small for our 5 occupants but due to cold weather able to store on Balcony in cool bags.(teenagers in party).Would recommend ScoltyTower be aware of parking fees.Eating at The Saffron Garden a delight so helpful . Good walk into town down hill we booked a Taxi for home journey (£7).Will use this venue again for future visits with grand daughter and family.Grand daughter a student in Aberdeen and found the bus timetable very easy to access with free travel to Banchory.

Excellent lodge. Warm, plenty of hot water, great showers, good kitchen and relaxing sofas. Beds super comfy too. And it's very quiet. They just need to replace the upstairs carpet as its badly stained.
