"We spent four nights at Royal Arch over Christmas and honestly, the lodge was stunning and spotless when we arrived. The host really made an effort with a lovely touch-two selection boxes under the Christmas tree, which was so thoughtful, especially knowing we had two kids with us. There was a vacuum provided, but the hose was broken and taped up - luckily, we brought our own, so it didnt cause any bother. Overall, a really nice stay and wed definitely come back!"

"Our Royal Arch Park review: We really enjoyed our stay! The beds were super comfy and made a big difference. The bathrooms looked great and were spotless, which is always appreciated. The kitchen had all the essentials, so no complaints there. The only minor thing was the sofa - you could feel the bed frame, but honestly, it didnt ruin the experience for us. Would stay again!"

"We recently stayed at Black Craig Lodge and honestly, it was a pretty good experience overall. The place was spotless, warm and had most of what we needed. The hot tub was a real highlight-absolutely loved it! That said, a few small things couldve made our stay even better. No welcome pack or brochure meant we had no idea about local spots or house details when we arrived, which was a bit of a letdown. The kitchen lacked basic bits like a dish towel and oven glove and only having two teaspoons meant we had to wash up more often than we'd like. Some minor issues like the sink tap starting to come loose, the bathroom fan cutting out and the fire lights not working were a bit annoying. Also, the beds could do with thicker mattress toppers for a better sleep. Despite these little hiccups, the lodge was lovely and wed definitely return!"

"We had a lovely stay at the Dalgetie caravan for three nights. The place was spotless - honestly, it was so clean, we almost hesitated to let the kids run around! Outside, the views were stunning and the peaceful surroundings made it even better. We mostly relaxed in the hot tub, but also enjoyed a scenic walk. The kids loved the TV in the bath! Definitely planning to return someday. Would recommend for a relaxing getaway!"

"We had an awesome 3-night stay at Fraser Lodge with the family. The hot tub was a hit with the girls and we loved the bath after long days. The dishwasher was a lifesaver and we enjoyed a fun Halloween trip to Brechin Castle Centre. Definitely coming back, thanks!"

"We recently stayed at this lovely little park and honestly, it was quite charming. The lodge we booked, called Glenmore, was really cosy and had a lovely hot tub for us to enjoy privately, which was a real highlight. The park is beautifully maintained and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The kitchen in the lodge was well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals. However, we did notice some stains on the curtains and off-rails, which we hadnt seen at first and the TV reception was pretty patchy the whole time. We understand that its a rural spot, about a 10-minute drive to the nearest shop, so wed suggest stocking up beforehand. Sadly, theres no shop, bar, or other facilities on-site, which was a bit of a let-down. Wed definitely come back, but probably without our little one, since there aren't any kid-friendly activities or entertainment beyond the hot tub. Still, overall, a lovely stay!"

"Honestly, we found the Braemar Lodge to be way overpriced for what it was. We booked a 'luxury' lodge, hoping for a relaxing week, but it just wasnt comfy to lounge or sleep in. The only good thing was the hot tub. We left a day early because of poor sleep and aching joints. Disappointing!"
Emma Turner - Aug 2024
"Really enjoyed our visit; the place was great and well return soon."
Adam - Aug 2024

"We decided to go for a last-minute getaway for my birthday and chose this place because of all the glowing reviews. Honestly, it sounded perfect! We arrived around 6 pm and I got a message with the code for the locked box where the key was kept-super handy. The cabin itself was lovely, looking brand new and spotless, which we really appreciated. There was plenty of cutlery and everything we needed in the kitchen area. The towels were a bit tiny, but we managed and we eventually found them. The en-suite bath was a nice touch, along with the shower over it-really comfy. The main bathroom had a proper shower cubicle and there was loads of storage space in the cupboards, so no complaints there. Sadly, there was no hairdryer, iron, or ironing board, which was a bit of a pain, but we made do. The hoover was tucked away in a small cupboard and there was no brush or dustpan, which was a bit odd. The hot tub was behind the cabin, not on the decking, which I found a bit strange at first. To use it, you had to go out your door, down the steps, over gravel and past everyone sitting nearby-so we bought robes and slippers from the supermarket for privacy. Once in, it felt really secluded thanks to a tiny wooden fence. There was a small patio table with some chairs, perfect for relaxing. The area was peaceful-no pubs or shops close by, just pure quiet. The only thing missing was a welcome pack or any info about the cabin, like who to call if something went wrong, or where the bins were. No wifi either, so no internet, which was actually quite nice for a break. Wed definitely come back if we wanted a peaceful escape from everything. Its ideal for some proper chill time!"

"We stayed at the lodge recently and honestly, it was a lovely spot. The heating kicked in quickly, which was a relief and everything was spotless. The hot tub was ready when we arrived - such a bonus! My only tiny gripe is that it wouldve been better if there was paving leading to the hot tub, since walking on the grass or stones in bare feet isnt ideal. The views were stunning, really peaceful and exactly what we needed. Were already planning our next visit!"

"Really enjoyed our stay! The lodge was spotless and had everything we needed, including towels. The hot tub was definitely a highlight. Would come back for sure!"

"We had a lovely stay in a beautiful lodge overlooking stunning countryside. At this time, the park is smaller and quieter which was perfect for us, however there are plans to extend the park and include a restaurant.
I would certainly recommend this place fir a quiet retreat."

"Lovely clean cabin. Great base to travel around the area. Quiet and peaceful. Cabin had everything you could need for cooking or the local Ramsey Arms food is amazing if you don't want to cook."

"What a great find!
Beautiful park in a gorgeous location.
Quiet and relaxing.
Lodge was spotlessly clean..and I mean spotless!
Hot tub was fantastic!
Will definitely be back and the plans they have for a restaurant/shops etc looks amazing!!
Beds were so comfy!
My only critique would have been 1 rooms bedding, purely the aesthetic side, didn't match and looked a little out of place/wrinkly but did not make a difference to our holiday at all. A few little wallpaper tears under Windows but again, purely aesthetic.
We can't wait to go back!"

"Great wee caravan for a get away with family or friends! Really spacious and has all amenties. 20 minutes to stonehaven so we visited dunnoter castle and then we also went to st cyrus, if you are looking for a chilled weekend then this is the perfect place. In the middle of the country side so not a lot to do! But still really
enjoyed our stay :)"
