Location & Local Attractions

This really is the most idyllic spot for a dog-friendly getaway. Royal Deeside is a doggie delight with walks on the unused railway line along the Deeside Way. Also if you climb up Scolty hill you will be rewarded with wonderful views of Deeside or you can climb one of the higher peaks accessed from Cairn O'Mount road such as Clachnaben. Also, a visit to Crathes Castles and Balmoral Castle, and the Cairngorms National Park is a must.
