The property is in a peaceful tree-lined neighborhood, a short walk from the nearest shops, bars, restaurants and the River Dee. It is a granite house built over 100 years ago and is a mix of old and new. Renovations have created a bright and open home for gathering and socializing. There are large lawns surrounding the house with wooded garden beyond. The house is accessed using the side door into the utility room/cloakroom and into the open kitchen. The kitchen leads to the living, dining room and downstairs generous double bedroom. The living and dining room is combined into one large room, the living room has a wood-burning stove. The hall features an original wooden banister and staircase winding to the upstairs bathroom fitted with a free-standing bath and separate walk-in shower. There are 3 large bedrooms upstairs, master with a super king bed, a double bedroom and a further bedroom with 3 singles. You can request a cot and high chair for your stay. The rear of the property has an annex apartment, with a separate garden and shared parking-email us to see if it's occupied. This is a wonderful place to either recharge batteries and enjoying nature with family and friends

We enjoy hosting and offering our home to others as a base to experience the beautiful and refreshing Deeside area and all it has to offer.

Aboyne is nestled in Royal Deeside, midway between Braemar and Aberdeen, at the foot of the Cairngorm National Park and the location of the Muir of Dinnet and Glen Tanar nature reserves. The village has a beautiful green at its centre and is used to host the annual Highland Games. The Deeside Activity Park is a 10 min drive away with wide variety of outdoor activities to choose from. The 'Deeside Way' (the old Deeside railway line now converted into a walking and cycling path) running from Aberdeen to Ballater, with a few points that must be crossed over the north Deeside road. Aboyne is a wonderful base for local/nearby adventures as well as walks/climbs, fishing, swimming, cycling during the spring-autumn months and in winter months a little further out at the Lecht Ski Centre (28m NW) or the Glen Shee Ski Centre (36m SW). The Deeside Gliding Club is nearby and has a purpose-built layby off the A93 to watch the activities of the club. The Aberdeen water-ski club operates out of the Aboyne Loch, just outside the village, to the North just off the A93.
