What our customers say about their holidays

  • Justyn - Verified booking

    While small, this little cottage is perfect for a couple.

    We normally stay in fairly remote places but liked Ballater on previous day visits and thought it would be good to try a town based holiday. Town and shops were a 5 minute walk away with all the local amenities you would expect from a small town. The cottage was beautifully presented and was exceptionally clean and I really do mean spotless. The welcome pack was informative and included how to use a wood burner correctly - something other hosts should implement if only to avoid a lot of mess for them to clean up. We had enough towels, tea towels, washing up liquid, washing tabs etc to last us the week and this is unusual. Also a supply of wood for the burner was available which again is a great touch as no need to hunt down kindling and wood elsewhere. There was a welcome tray with teabags etc for your arrival and even shower gel etc. The only thing missing was a cafetiere - but this will not impact my rating or view - its a very small constructive suggestion :-) We were there for peak tourist season and you could hear a pin drop at night - expect for the bagpipes at 7am and early evening if the Queen is in residence at Balmoral. The army barracks for the Royal Regiment of Scotland are based around the corner. There are not disturbing by any means and if anything should be welcomed. Locally there is everything you could wish for shopping or food/drink wise and it's a great base to explore the wider area and even in peak season its a short queue in most shops. The local people are very welcoming. Owners checked in to make sure we had everything by text. We have already decided that we will stay here again but will probably book the house next time. Cant recommend this place enough

    We had a wonderful stay in Gairnlea Cottage in mid May.

    As other reviewers have commented, the cottage was beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean, with everything you'd need for a weeks stay provided, except for running out of toilet paper! We've stayed in lots of self catering cottages and this is definitely in the top 2. The only thing I'd suggest would be the addition of some cleaning materials eg Ciff as coffee left stains on the mugs and the selection of books and games( presume they were removed during Covid?) Thank you to owners, Peter and Vicky for creating such a special holiday home.

  • Peter George - Verified booking

    We loved our stay here.

    The property was warm and welcoming and beautifully furnished. 2 sets of towels were provided which is unusual and a thoughtful touch. The kitchen was well equipped for self catering, however plenty of places nearby if you choose to eat out. A really lovely quiet spot only a couple of minutes walk from the centre of Ballater. The very best of both worlds.The old station cafe which can be accessed via the information center is an absolute must visit venue. We will definitely be visiting again.

  • Julie - Verified booking

    The cottage was lovely,well presented and within walking distance of shops and restaurants in Ballater.

    The large supply of wood for the stove was very much appreciated. The cottage had everything required for two people. Though this was a shared garden with a lot of other houses close by it was quiet and felt private. We normally pick more isolated cottages this was our first in a more urban area but it didn’t disappoint and we hope to be back sometime. There are lots of lovely walks around the town and within the Balmoral estate.
