Liked: Lovely location, in a typical Scottish landscape. Breakfast superlative: excellent home made bakery... Kevin&Helen are really lovely and friendly people who gave us great advises for our stay. Do not miss to spend one or more nights in this B&B if you plan to visit Balmoral and the Aberdeenshire.

Our stay there was perfect...

Liked: I liked everything about this beautiful facility! Kevin and Helen were welcoming, friendly, and easy to deal with. We enjoyed getting to know them. The rooms were beautifully appointed, were clean, and had many little extras that helped make the stay a wonderful experience. (The wee dram of whiskey, the cookies, and the made to order breakfast just to name a few.)
Disliked: Nothing!

Liked: An understanding for my late arrival. The genuine concern to make me comfortable and ensure I had a pleasant stay with the rest I needed. When available The Auld Kirk will always be my first choice to stay in Ballater when I have clients in Braemar at Fife Arms.
