    Braemar is in Royal Deeside.

    Braemar is in Royal Deeside. It is a small, picturesque village loved by walkers and tourists alike. Rightly proud of its history and royal connections.. it has lots to offer. It is the gateway to the Cairngorms, quaint local gift shops and lovely restaurants and bars. You can choose then to take the scenic route over the hills to Perth via Glenshee ( take a tour of the local gin distillery at Persie ) or take the coast road via Ballater, Aboyne and Banchory to the city of Aberdeen. We certainly enjoyed our visit and plan to return next year.

    Clean, friendly with plenty of eateries and pubs.

    Clean, friendly with plenty of eateries and pubs. Best food and pub for me was Moorfield House Hotel. A little tucked away but worth the effort. Loads of walking from local strolls to mammoth Munro hikes. The countryside and wildlife is fantastic.

    The cabins are a two minute walk from the pubs, restaurants and sights of Braemar. The staff were friendly and extremely accommodating. The cabin itself was well equipped with every kitchen gadget available. There is a lovely decking area to sit out which was fully enclosed, excellent when travelling with pets or young children. The communal grassy area to the front of the cabin was equipped with tables, chairs, games and barbecues for the use of guests.

    The location was ideal, just on the outstirts of Braemar, very quiet but easy walking distance of town centre. The facilities were good, comfortable and very clean. The breakfast was one of the best I've ever had, perfect for the morning after watching England beat Germany.

    Location was superb - right in the middle of Braemar and all its amenities. We didn't have to get in the car again for 2 days as there were so many wonderful places to explore on foot and on 2 wheels. Stunning scenery and so much history.

    Sadly 24 hours after we left, this lovey hotel burned to the ground. Further comments would be pointless. Best wishes and good luck to the owner Malcom and his family.
