Virginia, United Kingdom

Alison, United Kingdom

The owner was very welcoming & made us feel at home. A great breakfast & comfortable bed. Some nice wee touches like homemade scones to take away with us for our day’s walk. Stunning location. I’d recommend no.45 to anyone staying in Ballater/Royal Deeside.

Struan, United Kingdom

Alison the host looked after us well. Breakfast was plentiful and kept us going all day. Top quality local produce and the best home made granola.

Julie, United Kingdom

A delightful guest house with a charming host. A pleasure to enjoy the comforts of home in a beautiful setting. Warm greeting on arrival and helpful local recommendations. Large rooms with beautifully appointed bathroom and a charming sitting area with open fire and chairs you could lounge in and bury yourself with a glass of wine to pass the late night hours. Breakfast of amazing choices and lovely local produce! A getaway for family friends or loved ones in an idealist location - true Scottish hospitality!

Brett, Australia

The bed in particular was extremely comfortable - had a very good sleep. The bedding was of very good quality and we had an electric blanket. The breakfast was a treat - there was everything you could think of. Jams, yoghurt, muesli etc were all home made. The produce was locally sourced. The owner looked up the weather report for when we wanted to go a walk and provided menus for local eateries.

Jacqueline, United Kingdom

The homemade granola and fruit compote were excellent and pancakes with bacon and maple syrup are my all time favourite breakfast and at No 45 it was superb!

Mary, United Kingdom

We absolutely loved this accommodation. It is in a perfect location, just 5 minutes walk to the centre of town. The room was large, clean and comfortable. Les was very welcoming, helpful and the breakfast was perfect. There is nothing we didn’t like about this accommodation other than our stay was too short!

Phillip, Australia

Lovely bright and clean room with a spacious comfortable four poster bed. Breakfast was excellent. Really friendly hosts, will definitely be back for more than one night next time.
