"Highly recommended!"

10.0

The owner is very charming and gracious. You will feel very welcome in her B&B and she has interesting life stories. Our room was large, very quiet and comfortable, especially the bed. Breakfast was fresh and delicious. We heartily recommend this site, it was a good value and it will be well remembered.

The TV was small but that is unimportant for us.

"Großartiger Aufenthalt …"

10.0

Wir hatten ein sehr schönes Zimmer mit Blick in den Garten und eine kleine Terrasse im Garten . Das Haus befindet sich in absoluter Ruhelage. In den Ort ist es nicht sehr weit . In etwa sieben Minuten erreicht man zu Fuß das Zentrum . Cathy ist eine großartige Gastgeberin . Das Frühstück ist sehr umfangreich und liebevoll von Cathy zubereitet . Wir können diese Unterkunft nur empfehlen …

"Gem of a B&B in beautiful Ballater"

10.0

Excellent accommodation at the Schoolhouse for our weekend in Ballater. Perfectly situated a short walk from the village centre, the accommodation offers clean, comfortable and spacious rooms and communal living spaces. A lovely garden with choices of seated areas provides a welcome rest after a days walking and sightseeing in the beautiful surrounding areas of Royal Deeside. Breakfast is delicious and sets you up well for the day's adventures. Thank you to our excellent host Cathy for the warmest of welcomes and looking after us so well. Nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be back.
