  1. We have so many different options to choose from, for example, if golf is your thing, then Meldrum House Country Hotel & Golf Course would be in the top five for you! Situated northwest of Aberdeen city, the 13th century baronial mansion house, 240 acre estate and golf course promises a simply unique experience.
  2. If you’re looking for something not too far out of the city centre with the peace and quiet of a countryside manor house, look no further than Norwood Hall Hotel. The hotel was built on the site of 15th Century Pitfodels Castle in 1881. 
  3. Again, staying close to the city centre, but with 5-star luxury finds you at the Marcliffe Hotel and Spa, located on Royal Deeside to the west of the city. The Marcliffe offers a range of superb facilities and is even home to Harry Potter’s “Dobby” as gifted by J. K. Rowling.
  4. If Royal Deeside is taking your fancy, then another great choice for you has to be Banchory Lodge. The Grade II listed Georgian building has been beautifully refurbished and promises fantastic restaurant views, a new bar and terrace, cosy corners, log fires and sumptuous interiors. What’s not to like?
  5. If North Aberdeenshire is where you want to be, we suggest heading out towards the Banffshire Coast to the Saplinbrae Hotel & Lodges near Mintlaw. Near the beautiful Pitfour Lake and Aden Country park, the Saplinbrae Hotel is a great base for those who love photography, walking and wildlife spotting.
  6. Inspired by the magnificent Balmoral Castle, Ardoe House Hotel & Spa is a perfect choice of a country break in Scotland. With views over the River Dee, a theme of calm and timeless elegance runs throughout the hotel.
  7. Four-star opulence is waiting you at Maryculter House Hotel, on the banks of the River Dee. Another great choice for golf fanatics, over-looking the course at Peterculter. Steeped in history dating back to 1227 AD.
  8.  We did promise castles! But not just any castle of course, this one is pink! Castle of Park is a romantic 16th century castle in Cornhill, Banff is hidden away on the stunning north Aberdeenshire coast.
  9. Near by Durn House is an exquisite 18th century stately mansion house. The Georgian designed house now operates as a luxury bed & breakfast in Portsoy.
  10. Raemoir is a recently refurbished, tranquil and privately owned Georgian Country House Hotel in Aberdeenshire. Set in 11 acres of completely secluded wood and parkland located only 25 minutes from Aberdeen in Banchory.
