Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Ballater

Bryce’s home is amazing! The view from the kitchen and living room out the sliding glass doors is gorgeous. We had everything we needed. Also, we had a little bit of an emergency and Bryce was quick to respond and sent someone out to check on us. Our stay couldn’t have been any better.

Simply superb in every way, faultless. I’ve been visiting Pennan for 40 years how have I never discovered this beautiful cottage before?

Really nice house, quiet street, 10 minutes walk to shops & cafes, small but sunny back garden

A truly amazing and special location It’s not often one can stay so close to the sea Watched dolphins jumping in the bay one evening A magical three days to celebrate a family birthday

This was a great stay. Birchwood cottage is the perfect base for exploring the Cairngorms, and is a very cosy and comfortable home to return to after a long day in the hills. Although situated in the attractive town of Braemar, it feels very private and is extremely quiet and peaceful. The living room is light and spacious and the view looks over Raymond and Sandra's beautiful garden and on to the mountains beyond. The bike storage shed was invaluable. Raymond and Sandra are very kind, friendly and helpful hosts and respond very quickly to any queries. I would thoroughly recommend this stay and would be very happy to return.

One of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed - both the beauty of the surroundings and the house itself with gorgeous views and unique design and decor. Cozy living room with great view. Basically two master bedrooms. Great kitchen and dining room. Nice deck if weather permits. Close to railway walking path. I even caught four brown trout from shore just across the lake. Highly recommend!

This is a fantastic place to stay for a short break, house is lovely, clean and most important a comfy bed, parking in the drive and the view is incredible. Walked along the coast to thinkers hill and the former lime kilns. Meal at the Anchor hotel, and ice cream at the wee cafe. Will definately visit again, thanks Loren

The cottage was beautifully and thoughtfully presented. Living, dining and sleeping spaces were large, wonderfully furnished and comfortable. Appliances were spotless and of high quality. A welcome package of milk, fresh orange juice, eggs, bread, butter and bottled water was left. Georgina was the perfect host, responding quickly to questions or queries and checking in with us on the second day of our visit to make sure that we were settled. Georgina’s eye for interior design was evident. For people travelling with dogs it should be noted, (that as mentioned in the property listing), the outside space is limited to a paved courtyard, probably not secure for smaller dogs. The property manual does provide details of how to reach walks by foot. We didn’t try either of these despite the short distance we would have had to walk on the road to reach them. We travelled expecting to drive to wooded areas to walk our boys. I’m sure we’ll be back! Thank you 😊

This was a work trip and rather than staying in an hotel, I decided to look after myself. That was a great decision as The Burrow was very local to where I needed to be; incredibly well equipped and comfortable and just exactly what I needed. Kathleen communicated brilliantly in the run up to my stay and access to the property could not have been easier. Perfect

Great little stay. In the middle of our trip the option for laundry was awesome. Walking distance to everything you need. The kitchen was nice so we didn’t have to eat out, though there are many options close by. The beaches nearby were beautiful. Would love to go back.

Angela and Peter were fantastic and their place was so comfortable (love the beds!) and nice. Highly recommend!!!

Great place to stay in the Cairngorms. Fully equipped kitchen for cooking meals. Amazing whisky corner which my husband greatly appreciated.

Lovely flat, close to city centre and walkable to all of Aberdeen. Would recommend and would stay here again.

We were very comfortable at Earl and Helen's apartment. It's a terrific space with a great bed, loads of room, and everything you would need. We especially appreciated the washer and dryer and well appointed kitchen. Situated close to several bus lines, it is easy to navigate around Dundee. Great value, clean, safe and quiet, it is everything you could hope for!

The Apartment in Highland Council was very nice and clean! There were also plenty of towels! The highlight was the beautiful, modern bathroom with the wonderful shower with a full enclosure door and a niche to place your shampoos, etc. Believe us when we say this is a plus in the UK! The water pressure and the hot water was also a plus. Again, this is not always the case in the UK! The apartment was quiet even though it is situated right by a road. The parking is by its back door/patio entrance which is by the market parking lot. We entered and exited from this door during our stay, and used the market parking near the back gate. The kitchen is adorable and functional, but it’s small. It has a very small refrigerator, so small amounts of groceries are best to buy if you’re cooking in. There were some staples available for use, a coffee maker and a kettle. The washer dryer was definitely a plus!

This was a beautiful home and located right by the beach and walkable to all the amenities in town. Don’t miss the karaoke Fri Sat Sun at the Eagle Coaching Inn! We had a wonderful time and it was very comfortable. We always found parking on the street right by the house. Highly recommend!

Great accommodation experience, we had a great day here, extremely spacious 1.8m bed, comfortable hot shower, thoughtful welcome gift, flexible check-in and check-out time, and very convenient location (a few minutes walk in the morning to eat McDonald's breakfast), everyone loves it.

It was a wonderful place to stay with great scenic views and a peaceful atmosphere . The hosts Alexandra and David were such great people which made the stay even more pleasant. Would definitely stay here again.

Marie was a great hostess and the house was amazing in great condition and very clean. The location is good and Marie assisted us with all the questions and had a full breakfast prepared for us.

Very comfortable house right in the heart of Newtonmore - was a perfect location for a family winter break. Lots of space with 2 lounges and generously sized bedrooms. Really well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen in particular plus lots of games and books for the wet days (there were a few!). Off-street parking, nearby co-op shop and responsive hosts made for a stress free and enjoyable stay. We hope to be back!

What an amazing house and location. We have had a magical Christmas with everything we needed; walks, tennis, piano. The layout of the house and expansive living space suited us very well. The dog was as thrilled as her humans. The kitchen/dining room/glassware/crockery/cutlery are genuinely set up for a huge number which makes catering so much easier. As long as you don’t mind a short walk, Banchory is accessible by foot- you need a head torch in Winter! Definitely on the repeat list!

Amazing house with lots to do. The room at the top of the spiral stairs was just a bit difficult to get into and out of, with low ceilings, and it gets warm up there. One more bathroom for that number of bedrooms could be nice... but it all worked out. It was pretty close to perfect for our family reunion. And it's great for hide and seek! We recommend it.

This is a lovely house with beautiful views in a fantastic location! We got very lucky with sunny weather during our stay meaning we could make the most of the gorgeous surroundings - we did white water rafting on the River Tay and enjoyed the Taymouth Marina spa, all of which were a short drive away from the house. The house was just as described and pictured and the hosts were great - they were very responsive and flexible, allowing us to have both an early checkin and late check out. There is a good amount of parking at the property and the kitchen was well stocked with all amenities you could need. The house is on a main road but it is not busy and traffic noise was not an issue. I would definitely recommend this house to a group.

Carol was amazing and her place is stunning. The location is brilliant - will book again anytime. Cheers.
