Cardhu Country House is down a quiet, lazy country road, just what we were looking for. It is an old church manse and has been kept in the traditional style. It is lovely and charming. It was like stepping into a storybook. We were met by Dave at the front door and he answered all of our questions about the area. Breakfast was outstanding and I was sorry that we hadn't had dinner there the night before. It is a little ride back to town, maybe 15 minutes. There is much to do in the surrounding area. I hope that my travels bring me back to this area because I would stay here again. Dave and Val were the perfect lord and lady of the manor.
United States of AmericaCardhu Country house was EXCEPTIONAL. Dave and Val were so nice and welcoming. The room was amazing. The bed was SUPER comfortable and we especially loved the claw-footed tub in the bathroom. The breakfast was INCREDIBLE: the best meal we had in Scotland. I had the whisky honey porridge and my partner had the kippers, which were both delicious. I can't find anything negative to say about this place. It was lovely. This was our favorite place we stayed in Scotland. We are recommending it to everyone we know. Don't miss it!
United States of AmericaIt was a lovely old country home with fabulous hosts. We had a delicious dinner prepared for us and an excellent breakfast. Located in the heart of whiskey country.
United States of AmericaWe were in the Speyside area to visit the distilleries and the location was perfect. It is away from main roads and very quiet. Our room was very comfortable and breakfast was delicious. We also had dinner there one night and it was outstanding. Overall, I think Cardhu House was the best place we stayed for the money during our two-week trip.
United States of AmericaBreakfast was very good. Very remote, quiet location. Hosts made us feel comfortable and welcome. Provided good tips.
United States of AmericaDave and Val are amazing hosts and we were thrilled with our stay at Cardhu Country House. The breakfasts were absolutely delightful and if you are lucky enough to have dinner at the house you will not be disappointed. This is easily one of the best places to stay if you are going to visit Speyside.
United States of AmericaWelcoming hosts, couldn't do enough to anticipate & meet our needs. Beautiful home, well decorated. Beds comfortable, bathroom great. Excellent breakfast made to order Beautiful part of Scotland.
United States of AmericaThis was a lovely country retreat in the heart of Speyside. My husband and I used it as a base for visiting lots of distilleries in the area, and it was such a peaceful spot to come back to every evening. Breakfast was good every morning, and we even had dinner here one night, which was delicious!
United States of AmericaNice property, very close to the Cardhu Johnny Walker distillery. Most other distilleries are in 10-30min radius. Do visit the Macallan (10min from the location); great architecture and gorgeous location. Really good bar too. Rooms are spacious and service is good. Owners are very responsive and offer a nice breakfast.
United States of AmericaBeautiful setting. Quiet. Lovely 19th century restored home. The owner was wonderful - helpful, friendly, courteous. Beautiful room has all the amenities - including (our bias) the best shower in Scotland.
