Nestled in the heart of Royal Deeside, the Victorian village of Ballater offers a picturesque winter retreat with beautiful architecture, stunning landscapes, and a charming high street filled with galleries and boutiques. Ballater is also home to our five-star inn, Balmoral Arms. Featuring luxurious rooms and suites alongside the restaurant and bar, Balmoral Arms is the ultimate cosy escape this season.
During the festive season, Ballater becomes a nearly cookie-cutter setting. Our quaint village becomes draped in fairy lights, Christmas trees light the frosted windows, and baubles of every colour make the perfect addition to any overhang. With snow drifting on our rugged hillsides and a herd of reindeer grazing just around the corner, you will surely find yourself immersed in a true winter fairytale.
There is plenty to keep idle minds busy in Ballater this winter season. Explore the Cairngorms in all their frosty glory, head to the nearby slopes of Glenshee Ski Resort and The Lecht for skiing and snowboarding, and coorie in at the Balmoral Arms after a long day of exploration. Snuggle in by our roaring fire with a toast dram of whisky or pipping hot cup of tea on standby. Why not enjoy a Festive Afternoon Tea or indulge in a Christmas lunch before returning to your winter adventures?
After the holidays have passed, the surrounding Victorian architecture and quaint village shops continue to glow, offering warmth in the Cairngorms for all travellers. With the royal residence, Balmoral Castle, opening its internal doors for the first time to the public earlier this year, Ballater is the ideal location to immerse yourself in the royal history of the Scottish countryside.
