Cardhu Country House, hotel in Aberlour

Welcome to Cardhu Country House which sits in the very heart of the Malt Whiskey Trail.

The location is fabulous, quiet and secluded, but easy driving distance to the surrounding sites in the area. The beds were very comfortable. The food was delicious. But most importantly, we really enjoyed chatting with our hosts, Colin and Sarah. They are fabulous and what make the Country House the perfect place to stay when visiting the area.

Coachmans Cottage, hotel in Aberlour

Coachmans Cottage is located in Aberlour, just 23 miles from Brodie Castle and 27 miles from Grantown Museum.

An amazing cottage - with such character and all the modern amenities. Our hosts had thought of everything - so many nice touches. Sharon and Kevin have done a masterful job on the Coachman's Cottage and we had plenty of room for a family of 4 adults. There was such great communication before, during, and after the trip that I felt like we had made new friends! So many great recommendations and the cottage is wonderfully suited central location from exploring the beaches in the north to the many whisky distilleries. The only thing we didn't like was . . . leaving!

It was a nice hotel with a restaurant and a well stocked whiskey bar. Staff were friendly, helpful and worked very hard. Seemed like each person had multiple jobs from tending bar to serving your food and checking you in. Easy off-street parking. Our junior suite was nice and comfortable.

Dunvegan Bed & Breakfast, hotel in Aberlour

Housed in a historic building, Dunvegan Bed & Breakfast features accommodations with a shared lounge and free Wifi in Dufftown, 14 miles from Huntly Castle.

First of all, Theresa, she was so perfect about treating us. We felt like we are friends and family rather than visitors. The room and the bathroom was beyond clean. :) We fell in love with the details, from the complementary capsule coffees to the usb and electric outlets installed on the nightstand. Breakfast was delicious and fresh.

    Great butchers on the high street, amazing deli and wine...

    Great butchers on the high street, amazing deli and wine shop and a great whiskey shop as well. Decent local supermarket. The Hotel has a really nice bar that serves excellent draught beers. Plenty of local whiskey distilleries. Brilliant fish and chip shop. Beautiful walks along the river and a decent play area for children. Amazing fishing on the river spey that can be booked at The Aberlour Hotel and the cost doesn't break the bank.

    A nice little town with all the basics, Co-op, Ironmongers, Paper shop and Spey Larder with luxury foods. A good Fish & Chip Shop and Chinese Takeaway. The river walks run very close to the town centre. There are a couple of pubs, at least, but we didn't try any. A pretty Scottish Highland Town with beautiful countryside surroundings. And quite level to walk around.

    Walkers shortbread factory shop in the village.

    Walkers shortbread factory shop in the village. On the whisky distillery trail. Close to Aviemore and Grantown on spey. Not far from the coast. Some lovey walks and wild life. Only a few restaurants so be sure to book early.

    If you are a whisky lover, the place needs no introduction.

    If you are a whisky lover, the place needs no introduction. If not, still a pretty little village in a scenic setting. Lots of waking opportunities and ever more distillery visit chances. As they all close at 5 or before, we developed a habit of visiting well-appointed whisky bars, which offer you an amazing selection of a wide range of brands. They even provide fair advice on dram discoveries, I suppose less biased than at any distillery.

    The walk along the river spey is very easily accessible and an easy and beautiful walk. The chippy is good. The Dowans Hotel was excellent. The Mash Tun had good atmosphere and choice of whisky but the food was average. Public transport is good and the bus stand in the town displays electronic bus times. Parking in the town is free and plentiful. There is a beautiful delicate essence/food and sandwich shop called the Speyside Larder.

    Our first time in that neck of the woods.

    Our first time in that neck of the woods. Aberlour is positively huge in comparison to a much smaller Dufftown, where we started our trip! Both towns, and all the surrounding areas are beautiful, calm, quiet, feeling very secluded and out of the way when coming up from Edinburgh! The walks anywhere around there are amazing, but especially in Aberlour along the river Spey, which looked wild, pristine, clear and sparkling. Mash Tun hotel and whiskey bar is amazing, and the food better than anywhere we have eaten in the Highlands, and better than most places in Edinburgh.

    Warm welcome from Eileen and Jim. Accommodation very clean, cozy and lovingly decorated. Breakfast was excellent and plentiful. The food was always freshly prepared and every wish was fulfilled. Jim even made room for our motorcycles in his garage so they were dry and safe. Thanks again for this. Due to the central location, restaurants and the Aberlour Distillery were within walking distance. Eileen and Jim also provided us with lots of tips and advice. In summary, a great place to stay. We will be happy to come back next year.

    The location is perfect to visit distilleries in Speyside. It is safe, private, and quiet. The hosts are nearby and they are responsive and welcoming. The room itself is more like a small house, homey and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is extraordinarily well equipped. There are thoughtful, cozy amenities all throughout. We stayed there on the coldest days of the year and there were many means to keep ourselves and the room warm.

    Wow! This is a stunning house with beautiful surroundings. Our bedroom was large and luxurious. Colin and Sarah are amazing hosts. Their evening platters and breakfasts are exceptional. Even chilled our limoncello for us! If you are after a quiet haven this is the place for you but still close enough to be amongst the distilleries and close to Aberlour.

    This was an amazing property and our room was extremely comfortable. We wished we could have stayed more than one night. The room was huge and everything was clean and thought out. Breakfast was delicious. My husband said the whisky porridge in the morning was the best thing he tasted in our 17 days in Scotland. The owners were very hospitable.

    Lovely little family run B&B where the hosts, Jim & Eileen, made us feel like family. Meals were great, room very comfy, located a few moments walk to the Speyside Trail for some lovely hiking. Easy drive to the many distilleries that make Speyside the center of the whisky universe, many beautiful walks/hikes in the area.

    The cottage is great, well-equipped and in a very convenient location, close enough to Aberlour to walk (and there's a walkway along the main road). The living room makes for a lovely place to chill at the end of a day exploring the area. And Michelle was a very good, responsive and at the same time discreet host.

    Good location to visit places although I was there to visit family. Parking outside the door Close to restaurants but try to book early. I arrived on the Saturday and couldn't get in anywhere in Aberlour or the next village Craigellachie. Drove quite a distance until I managed to get in somewhere.
