The village of Braemar in Royal Deeside sits amongst some of the most beautiful scenery Scotland has to offer. Nestling in the River Dee valley within the Cairngorms National Park, Braemar and the area around it are a treasure trove for the outdoor enthusiast, boasting 24 Munros, the highest 18-hole golf course in the country and close proximity to the Glenshee Ski Centre. The village offers plentiful opportunities for relaxation as well in the many cafes, shops and restaurants. The famous Highland Gathering in September, a favourite of Queen Elizabeth, is a spectacular feast of highland games, music and dancing. Inverness, Aberdeen and Perth are a great day out, are accessed through great scenery, and are well worth a visit.

  • Martha

    Situated in a prime location, in Braemar, near Mar Lodge Nature Reserve, with access to many interesting walks and within a few miles of Balmoral, Ballater etc. It is nicely furnished and has everything a large family or group needs for a comfortable stay including facilities for young children to play in the garden The owner provides very good instructions on how everything works and responds swiftly if you have any queries. We had a very enjoyable time there and wouldn't hesitate to go back
