Dog Friendly Ballater Holiday Cottages

What our customers say about their holidays

• Linda - Verified booking

  Thank you for your hospitality, our stay was amazing, it was a warm comfortable stay.

  After lots of days out and about the beautiful surrounding area it was great knowing we were coming back to a relaxed quiet home with all the facilities we needed. We appreciated the information leaflets for trails, which we took advantage of. We also enjoyed dining out, takeaways and using the kitchen with all the equipment we needed. The amenities were described accurately with some extra nice touches. My dog loved all the walks and the secure garden. Check in and out was simple, secure and the whole experience was fantastic. It was affordable for me, but does fluctuate at certain times of year, so if the price is right I have no doubt I will return.

  A perfect holiday home in a wonderful location!

  Westwood has everything you may need to make your stay most comfortable. It was immaculately clean & obvious from the quality fittings, the recent renovation is of the highest standard. The enclosed garden was a bonus & perfect for dog owners. We loved the downstairs open plan which wasn’t clear from the listing, but a definite plus. Ballater and the entire area is breathtaking. It’s easy to see why the Royals make this their Scotland home. Forest trails are plentiful near by and the town is full of cafes, tasteful quaint gift shops and a royal approved baker & butcher. Would absolutely recommend & can’t wait to go back!!

  This cottage is very much a home from home - just what we needed for having a relaxing break.

  We have explored the area quite a bit and being able to come back to the cottage and enjoy a relaxed evening was just what was needed at the end of our days trekking. The timed heating and hot water were very welcome eliminating the need to 'remember' to turn these on ready for when it was needed. The cottage is ideally placed for getting to the many places of interest in the area easily by car and we enjoyed putting out walking shoes on to explore the walking routes from Ballater. Thank you for providing a lovely place to stay Jacqueline, we would certainly stay with you again when in the area.

  We enjoyed a midweek break at Westwood which is perfectly situated in the heart of this friendly little town.

  Beautiful walks from the door with coffee shops and restaurants literally just around the corner. A very well appointed cottage with the best kitchen we have come across with all the dishes, utensals and modern appliance you could ever need. The living space is very usable with lots good downstairs space, excellent tv & wifi, a modern bathroom and that all important comfortable bed! We slept soundly and really relaxed here. There is ample parking on the driveway and so many dog friendly places close by, we loved our stay and will definitely return.

  We had such a lovely stay at this little cottage, the photos really don’t do it justice.

  A lovely warm little house in a superb location, the kitchen was well stocked with the little things that you always forget to take like cling film. Lots of walking on the door step, would really recommend a walk round Lock Muick too. Some reviews say that the parking is difficult but we didn’t struggle and our cars massive, just pull past and reverse on to the drive. Only thing missing was some outside furniture but admittedly we had unseasonably warm weather for March so there may be some in the warmer months!
