Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Ballater

Great, quiet, peaceful atmosphere inside and outside the farmhouse. Great home-like atmosphere in a lovely rural location

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 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 house was beautiful, nice ambience, very lovingly decorated, very clean and you could tell that a lot of love is in the detail. Kate responded to questions immediately and was very nice. The location was also very good, close to a small supermarket, cafes and shops about 10 minutes' walk. We felt very comfortable and all in all it was charming!!! We highly recommend this place!!

Great place for a large group to stay, very comfortable.

Rock Cottage was a great ‘study camp’ for my daughter in the run-up to her exams. The house was immaculate and very much a home from home. The beds were very comfortable. The highlight, though, is outdoors - the wild garden is enchanting and full of bird life - we loved sitting in the sun room watching the swallows outside, followed by the bats at dusk. It’s in a very peaceful location but only a short drive to Kenmore or Aberfeldy for shops and restaurants. We’d love to be back!

Clover Cottage was absolutely magical. The house is private, nestled in gorgeous Scottish countryside, perfect for long walks with the dogs and really, truly escaping. The house was incredibly cozy, and we loved the hot tub. The nearest shops are a bit of a drive, but we just stocked up and nestled in. I absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for some peace and quiet!

Loved staying here, it’s exactly what it says , enjoyed the wildlife and so quiet except for the beautiful stags behind the cottage which I enjoyed listening to in the evening and morning, Fiona was very responsive when we needed to get in touch.

Caravan was in a great spot with a golf green in front of us, dog loved watching the golfers all day, would book again, the site is perfect for the beach and various walks with the dog.

It was a nice stay over there. we enjoyed really over there

Our stay at the cottage was lovely. Ashley was quick to respond when we were having trouble with the WIFI . It was so peaceful and managed to spot a dear as we arrived. Would highly recommend. Colin, Michael &Lina.

A fabulous lodge on a great site. So comfortable with everything you could want. Beautiful bedding and towels. Great showers. Lovely 5 ring cooker and plenty pits and pans. Tanya was great leading up to the visit making sure we had all the info we needed. Very responsive when we had one or two questions. The only minor issue we had is that there is no terrestial tv due to location. We had to use apps on our phone. Highly recommended.

I really love this cosy, private and beautiful cottage. I have stayed here a few times now for work and pleasure and it’s an ideal spot for both. I get such good nights’ sleep and the bird song is delightful. Everywhere is so green! The cottage itself has everything you need in it and it’s warm and cosy too. It’s a unique setting with a very special extra, where you can swim in their private pool if you wish. Thank you again for being really friendly and accommodating hosts. I’ll be back ! Or rather we will be- Matilda and Brown dog 😊🐾

Very lovely location. People/staff were very welcoming and a barrel of laughs. Cannot fault our stay.

We had a lovely stay. The nature surrounding the property was beautiful and peaceful. The house itself was cozy and well equipped. I would highly recommend this place to anyone thats looking for a relaxing nature getaway.

Beautiful spot and great facilities!

Fiona couldn’t have been kinder. From the moment we booked she was super helpful and very responsive. She helped with some planning for our trip and went to great lengths to ensure we were happy even doing a shop for us ahead of our stay as we arrived late and had to get to a wedding the following day. Her and Colin are so friendly and made us feel right at home. The place is comfortable and clean with all the bits you could need in the kitchen and bathroom. Perfect location in Braemar, a 5 minute walk from the famous Fife Arms. I would highly recommend Fiona’s place! Thank you again for being so kind and lovely!

What a fantastic little place. Cosy and with wonderful views, located in a spectacular part of Scotland. Starlink internet as well. James & Jessica were lovely. Thankyou for great stay.

Second time staying at Hilary's cottage, had 12 days this time as a week just wasnt enough for us before. Hilary was friendly and extremely helpful as they have been previously. Great knowledge of the area, house and gardens gorgeous as ever. Coming from living near a city its such a relaxed and enjoyable pace of life. Definitely recommend to anyone contemplating booking. Hope to visit again soon.

This was the perfect, unique, location to home base from for visiting Inverness, the Lochness Experience, and Urquhart castle, as well as our highland cow lunch! The host was extremely generous in leaving a small presentation of locally sourced treats to munch on during our stay. We even saw a deer bounding on the property. Wish we had more time here.

Absolutely stunning place – peaceful, private, and beautifully maintained 🌿🌄 I had the most wonderful stay at this property. The entire space felt very private and peaceful, which made it the perfect escape. Everything was spotlessly clean, and you could really see the attention to detail in every corner – from the decor to the thoughtful little touches that made the stay extra special. Communication with the host was excellent – quick, friendly. This place is 100% worth recommending. I would absolutely love to return in the future, and I highly encourage anyone looking for a relaxing, beautiful getaway to book this place. You won’t regret it!

Great Tim, great stay highly recommended

Lovely stay in a great location - peaceful and comfortable! Peter was very helpful and welcoming.

A warm and cosy cottage tucked away down a quiet street in Ballater. It felt very homely and was very well equipped - the dressing gowns were a nice touch! The kitchen had everything you would need for cooking. In an excellent location too, especially for anyone wanting to visit the Balmoral Estate or hike up Lochnagar.
