A fabulous week in one of our favourite places.

Pros: A fourth stay at this fabulous Mill. Very private, well equipped and very clean self catering. Lovely large garden for dogs. Starlink WIFI and large television for evening entertainment. Spacious bedrooms. Stunning location with many local walks and the town of Ballater close by with a fantastic choice of shops, cafes, restaurants and activities. Cons: The only thing we would have liked due to the lovely hot summer this year would have been some shade in the garden for sitting outside…a parasol /shade over the outside seating for those hot summer days to enjoy the garden even more.

AMAZING!

Everything about the cottage was incredible, it had such a nice feel to it and felt like home from home. I really can’t speak highly enough about it and would definitely like to stay here again!
