We went to Ballater to be close to Balmoral Castle, where we went to an artisans market on the grounds. We were there in October, so opening of other parts of the castle were not available, due to royal residence use. I would return to this beautiful part of Scotland again if given the chance, to see more of the castle.

Beautiful little town in a stunning location.

Beautiful little town in a stunning location. The town is decorated with the most amazing hanging baskets. Several pubs, all seemed to be busy and offered good value food. The town is ideally located for exploring the beautiful area

A very scenic town centre.

A very scenic town centre. A good supermarket and several specialist shops (bookshop especially) . just try and avoid the sweetshop (far too tempting) Several nice restaurants and an excellent fish and chip shop. Bike hire by the old station and easy routes along the old line.

Ballater is a lovely village.

Ballater is a lovely village. Very clean and tidy as you would expect being so close to Balmoral Castle. Beautiful hanging baskets outside the shops Plenty of cafes and gift shops. Lovely village green around the Church in the centre of Ballater with seating areas . Free car park and free parking around the Church. Lovely village to visit or stay. We stayed overnight at The Barrel before visiting Balmoral Castle the following day.

It has been the most wonderful and comfortable place we have stayed in on our trip we had been away for 4 weeks and this place by far the very best. Homemade cakes and a great breakfast. Highly recommend to everyone to stay, but you should stay a minimum of two nights.

Small, friendly family run hotel in the centre of Ballater. The ensuite room was very comfortable, immaculately clean and well appointed. I appreciated the real ale in the hotel bar and the excellent breakfast. I didn't have an evening meal there as they were fully booked, but the fact that all tables were fully booked in low season shows that the local folk rate the food highly, I'll book in advance next time. Overall a very comfortable stay and no issues at all - many thanks!

Quirky, beautifully decorated hotel. Features of old church kept which we liked. Room we had was comfortable and beautifully presented. Breakfast was lovely and the situation was perfect for walking / driving the short distance into Ballater. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The free car parking was not provided by the Auld Kirk, but there is free parking right outside on the road which was good. We had a really good night's stay and would definitely recommend.

I liked everything about my stay. The area, the views, the hotel, the staff etc. It's great that the hotel is dog friendly. I have stayed at the Cambus O May before, and couldn't wait to return. It's such a peaceful and beautiful place. I feel fully relaxed, and wish I could have stayed longer, and so does my dog.
