Location was a beautiful quiet village in the countryside, well situated to reach other places like Braemar/Balmoral, etc The hotel was a country pub style with very friendly staff. Rooms were clean and tidy and the bed was very comfy. We had an evening meal here and the food was great, everything we had (4 of us) was fresh, tasty and reasonably priced. Breakfast choice in the morning was very varied and made fresh. Highly recommend this hotel and the owners and staff couldn't do enough for us.

Rooms were well furnished with plenty of tea and coffee provided in room, good sized en-suite bathroom with good quality towels, property clean and well kept with two outside areas for drinks, Staff very friendly and couldn’t do enough for you a testament to the property. Great location for Tarland Trails 2 and other mountain bike trails. Locals very friendly and approachable. Food from the restaurant was exceptional.

At breakfast the scrambled eggs were perfect and the brown bread was very good. The cooked Scottish breakfast was excellent too, delicious (local butcher's?) bacon, sausage, haggis and farm (?) eggs plus more delicious brown bread toast. The pillow was the best I have ever used away from home and I meant to ask which brand it was!

Evening tea was good, Breakfast was good, loads of variety from cereal, fruit yogurt and a variety of cooked options. Staff were very helpful. Set in a lovely location with loads of outdoor activities on the doorstep.

The staff were extremely lovely, friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and well-appointed, with comfortable beds. Particularly appreciated the large charging slabs with USB ports. The food was good, both breakfasts and dinners - the cheesecake was phenomenal. The pub was cosy and comfortable.

Large room with comfortable lounge area. Everyone were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. Excellent cold selection of fresh fruit and cereal etc followed by a very good choice of cooked breakfast. Next visit we will definitely have an evening meal as it looked a very good menu,

Breakfast was very good. Excellent toast. Wide choice of items for a cooked breakfast. Young staff not as efficient as the middle aged staff with the exception of a young dark haired man who told us he had just left school. He was excellent.

The place was clean and the staff very polite and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. The village is really small and we spent the night there only because it was convenient for our road trip. It was a good experience in a true local pub.
