Independent Aberdeenshire and Moray hotels

Extremely gracious and friendly hosts. Surrounding countryside gorgeous and breakfast with homemade bread wonderful. Highly recommend!

Located at the end of a quiet (but well sign-posted) lane, about a 3-minute drive off the B9102 and 2 minutes away from the Cardhu distillery, this country house turned B & B is flanked by farmland, a quiet tucked-away church, and views of whiskey country galore. The host, David, welcomes his arriving guests with charm and enthusiasm that belies the efforts it must to run such a well-ordered, comfortable home away from home. Our room (The Glenlivet), spacious and immaculately clean, boasted a...

The room was good-looking and very comfortable. The bathroom was the nicest of all the hotels we stayed in that week, and included heated floors. Service was excellent. The grounds of the hotel are lovely - they have black Highland cattle and deer and of course the beautiful golf course, which we walked out to for the views. My only suggestion is to make the rooms a bit brighter - there isn't enough lighting, and given my room's location (we were in the lodge, which is all first floor), I...

Very helpful staff. Beautifully maintained property. Very comfortable bed. Delicious restaurant downstairs. Convenient location. Easy onsite parking. Would definitely stay here again.

The attention to detail is evident throughout the property. The staff service is exceptional, as was the food. The grounds are beautiful. One of my best hotel experiences Only negative was that the wine list contains wines from our Fake 45!

We have been coming back to Saplinbrea for a number of years. The staff and the food are excellent. The whole hotel has great ambiance, and provides a wonderful experience. Only negative is that carpeting in corridors is a little tired.

We chose this property for its proximity to the Highland Games we were attending. The property looked nice on the website, and we saw that it had a restaurant, but everything about it exceeded our expectations! The room was beautiful (our compliments to the decorator) and we loved the Victorian high tank toilet. Each course of the meal was more amazing than the last, and from the awards on the wall I suppose we should not have been surprised. Our hosts were exceptional and we loved learning...

Handsome property in a lovely jewel of a town. Excellent breakfast and friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay ! Quiet. Excellent restaurant. no issues with parking. The best part was the staff. They were warm and helpful. The views from the room of the farm and animals made our day. Two days of a very memorable stay.

We’ve been to Scotland three times, and this is the most wonderful place we’ve ever stayed! We were in Heaven. When Americans think of the Higjlands, this is what we envision.

Wonderful stay! Comfy room, the most pleasant hosts, easy parking, easy walk to restaurants/hiking trails. 10/10 stay!

The hotel was really nice. The included breakfast was a bonus, but i have to say the 2 top things that made this a wonderful experience were the 5 course tasting menu and the gentleman that waited on us every day-Jacob! He is spectacular. He was very helpful, extremely informative, and very charming. He checked us into the hotel, made us drinks and then walked us thru each course of the meal, which surprisingly was one of the best meals i have had in a long time- and i just got back from Paris....

This was my absolute favourite stay during our 2 weeks in Scotland! Absolutely authentic experience. The room was clean and so cozy. The food was perfect. Breakfast...omg. And the owner/staff were friendly and so helpful. If you have the chance, do stop here for a stay!
