The Boat Inn ★★★

"We loved how cute the hotel and restaurant were! The food was amazing, the room was big and comfortable and the staff were lovely :)"

Lys-Na-Greyne ★★★★★

"We had a wonderful family stay with Joyce and Gary and could not have asked for better hosts. Joyce, who we saw most, is the perfect host: warm, welcoming and genuinely keen for her guests to enjoy not only her beautiful B&B, but also the surrounding area.
She gave us so many excellent recommendations for walks, restaurants and places to visit, and we followed every one of them without ever being disappointed! She even went the extra mile by calling local businesses to make bookings for us, which was incredibly helpful.
The B&B itself is beautifully and tastefully decorated, and we particularly loved the daily afternoon teas, something we quickly came to look forward to! Breakfasts were generous, beautifully fresh and delicious.
The location is also ideal, with all the main sights and must-sees close by. Everything was just perfect, and honestly, I cannot think of a single suggestion for improvement.
We would very happily return and would wholeheartedly recommend Joyce’s B&B to anyone looking for a lovely place to stay and a genuinely special experience.
" Tip:
"If you’re staying with Joyce and Gary, make the most of their local knowledge! Their recommendations for walks, restaurants and places to visit are excellent, so don’t hesitate to ask them for advice. And definitely leave room in your day for the afternoon tea, it became one of the highlights of our stay!""

The Commercial Hotel ★★★★

"I’ve stayed in this hotel before and decided to go back. The staff is very friendly and helpful."

Aberdeen Arms Hotel Tarland ★★

"It's a bit rough and ready but welcome was genuine and warm. It is a budget hotel and the sheets were clean and bed were very comfortable and that alone was worth the money. There is a lack of budget hotels or b&bs in the area its mainly higher end. Which when you are volunteering (and funding yourself) at a sporting event, is all you need. It suited to stay in Alford and for that reason I would stay there again and most likely will next year. "

Loch Kinord Hotel ★★★

"My husband and I had an overnight stay for valentine's day. it was the first day open for the season so it was quiet but we couldn't have asked for a warmer welcome , the room was absolutely lovely and they couldn't do enough to make sure we were warm in the bar and restaurant, which I have to say the food was fantastic. We would definitely go back and would certainly recommend ."

Douneside House ★★★★

"Havde haft et 2-nat ophold for min mand og jeg bryllupsdag.Hvilket smukke sted.Værelse, mad og grunde var fantastiske.Vil helt sikkert blive igen og anbefale andre."
