    Dormie Cottage is a charming wee Bungalow in an enclosed garden on a very quiet street on the edge of Ballater. It sleeps a family of 4-5, and we were extremely comfortable the 3 days we spent in the town!

    Beautiful cottage, well positioned very cosy and extremely well equipped. Had everything you needed (ie dishwasher tabs, numerous toilet rolls, washing up liquid etc etc) so really only had to turn up with clothes. Beds were lovely and comfortable and lovely bedding. Beautiful, very well equipped kitchen with great bath and shower. Great bonus of hot tub. Couldn't fault a thing - highly recommended - you will not be disappointed.

    Very cosy funxtionable space. The hot tub was lovely and warm even in sub 0c temperatures. The woodburner is excellent and keeps the lodge nice and warm. Wonderful layout and design, everything you need.

    The cottage was a clean, cosy and comfortable space. The Hot tub was great to come home to after a long day hiking the Cairngorm Mountains.

    Really cosy cottage and really handy to the town centre. Fully enclosed garden so really good for pets and small children. No parking outside the property but this isn’t an issue as lots of on street parking less than a minute walk away. Hot tub outside was amazing and very easy to light. Great communication from the hosts especially Keira who was extremely helpful. Thankyou for a great stay- we will be back.
