Aboyne is a delightful large village set amongst beautiful scenery. It seems to have a real community feel about it and the public spaces are clean and well cared for. We preferred it to the very touristy Ballater down the road and would stay here again.

We didn't stop in the town of Aboyne itself, but if (or rather, when!) we go back, we will do so, as it looked very pleasant as we drove through. The scenery in the area is beautiful, and we enjoyed our drives around the area. There are plenty of placed of interest to visit and a super-abundance of castles. We greatly enjoyed our day at Castle Fraser.

Beautiful scenery and walks; river setting; lovely local friendly cafes; lots to return for. Very quiet and peaceful and everyone we met so friendly. Balmoral is just gorgeous and Ballater a nice town to explore.

Beautiful place with great access to river and woodland walks. Quaint feel.
A few solid local establishments to eat and drink, including the Boat Inn which has a great atmosphere and food/bar.
A little scarce on eateries open later, particularly on weeknights. Most places closed by 8pm, although would highly recommend Nurtaj, the local Indian restaurant! Beautiful inside, lovely staff, amazing food.
Aboyne was also a good base for accessing other places, with excellent road links out towards Inverness, Aberdeen, the Moray coast, and more.
Not touristy in the best way.
Beautiful place.

Lovely little town to visit, very quiet and peaceful with interesting buildings. Highly recommended if you're visiting the Cairngorms, Aberdeen or anywhere nearby. The Boat Inn is an amazing place to stay as well as for a meal or drinks with lovely indoor and outdoor spaces. Nice little play park for kids and fields for dogs to run around in too.
I don’t often write reviews, however we found Lys-Na-Greene so exceptional that it wouldn’t be right not to write one in this instance. Extremely comfortable, spacious, and well furnished en-suite bedroom and common area, and excellent hospitality including breakfast provided by owners Joyce and Garry. Beautiful setting and grounds. While more expensive than what we typically pay for B&B type accommodation, it was well worth the difference. We hope to return.
Really enjoyed our stay at the Lodge! Owners were very welcoming and gave suggestions on local things to do. The scenary is beautiful and the location was great for visiting Ballater, Balmoral, Crathes Castle, etc. We had breakfast and dinner at the Lodge and both were wonderful. Loved exploring the region and this was a great base to do that from. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
This is a lovely spacious property in a great location with all the facilities needed for an enjoyable break with a medium sized party. Our dog was accommodated with no fuss and a small extra charge. Easy walk to all Aboyne facilities and good location to explore Deeside. Large combined lounge and dining area with wood burning stove great for winter evenings. Lovely large modern kitchen.
We had a fantastic stay at Struan Hall. Judith was an amazing host. The breakfast was first class lovely fresh produce and everything cooked to perfection. Loved the special touches. Fresh cakes and milk left in our room daily. Even port , Sherry or a whiskey in the lounge as well. First class stay, 5 star treatment. Thank you Judith. Will definitely return here. Highly recommend
the facility was obviously modernized well but held the charm of an older establishment very well. the rooms were very well decorated food and meal service was really great. It was hot while we were there so no AC was noticeable but we did not have AC anywhere in our visit to Scotland so I can hardly fault them there. This was easily our favorite property of the trip!
We couldn’t have been more delighted with the house, our room, our hosts and the services and food they provided. Joyce and Garry were so friendly and helpful, it was simply exceptional. The wee town of Aboyne was such a bonus find with its Dee river and forest walks and golf courses.
Birchwood view is situated in the countryside and is absolutely stunning, immaculately presented with everything you need for a pleasant stay. The boat inn, Aboyne centre is a must visit pub the food is amazing. If you want a countryside get away then this is the place for you.
Setting is lovely, so quiet lots of wildlife definitely take bird seed nuts etc beautiful woodpeckers etc.
Bothy was so cosy had everything you need and well laid out. So much to do in the surrounding areas amazing for walks stunning places!
Would go again.
Super apartment with everything required for a peaceful and comfortable stay. Very clean, convenient for Aboyne and surrounding area, well equipped, helpful non intrusive host with little treats and essentials (tea, coffee, milk, chocolate) provided
Joyce and Garry are wonderful hosts. We felt at home in their lovely B&B and enjoyed every minute of our stay. Their excellent knowledge of the surrounding area including hikes was great! Breakfast is a great treat to start the day.
The location alongside the river is amazing. Staff were most helpful and friendly. The food was excellent - breakfast and dinner. We will certainly stay and dine at the Boat Inn again if we are up this way. Very highly recommended!
Brilliant location. Quiet woodland surrounding. Close to River Dee, and to Ballater. Lodge had all we needed. We had several evening meals in the hotel. Food there is excellent. Staff very helpful & friendly.
The location is absolutely outstanding if you want a break from the world. Close to both Aboyne and Ballater we thought this was an ideal location for our stay.
