The mattress was a little soft and the shower needed a shelf to put your staff.

The location is great for exploring the area, it's quiet and the rooms are comfortable and nicely decorated with everything you need. Staff are friendly and attentive and the breakfast is excellent and generous.

Lovely inn, very picturesque and cozy. The apartment is charming, well equipped and very clean. However, I’d honestly recommend staying here just to meet the guy at reception (he also served us breakfast). I don’t know his name, but he’s genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve come across in all my travels.

Probably the coffee. Food was good and breakfasts were great.

Great location to catch up with friends in Balmedie. Enjoyed the accommodation and the ability to come and go as we needed.

The beds definitely need some attention. I think they're just worn out.

We enjoyed our stay and the room really has it charms. You can notice it is an "older" building, but it is a great place to discover the area. Don't skip the seals beach 10 mins north. Really amazing! Also had one evening a perfect dinner in The Cock and Bull. Really worth it!

Nothing, I would recommend anyone to visit

Beautiful bar and restaurant, very friendly staff. Rooms and ensuites very spacious clean. Senary is beautiful, beach is near, I would love to go again in winter when the weather is stormy and the fires are roaring with a wee dram.

The only downside was there was a limited choice of vegetation options and the tomatoes at breakfast time could have been better if sliced into eighths rather than quarters.... But as previously said the food is of high quality.

The bar and restaurant were very authentic and relaxing. The staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful, especially Ben. We went for Ythan apartment definitely paying that little more as it has lots of space and an amazing view (we had to wait for the following morning due to haar - not a laughing matter) There is a nice space for enjoying a drink in the sun and the food was amazing. If you don't like DOGS don't book here, but if you do then this is an extra added bonus as it's a dog friendly establishment and the staff will ensure they get refreshment too.

We've been coming here for years! It started as a little stopover, and now its a permanent part of our vacation. The rooms are beautifully furnished and the dogs especially love the small garden. The food is fantastic, varied and so delicious! The ambience is cozy and inviting. These are more than enough reasons to keep coming back, but the biggest is the staff. Everyone is incredibly friendly, lovely and eager to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Location at main road but this is the only drawback

Friendly personell, excellent meals, nice room

The food served at dinner was not Michelin star quality. It was good pub food. Perhaps the photos on the website and the mention of Michelin star awarded food should be changed to avoid disappointed expectations.

The friendly staff could not do enough to make our stay enjoyable. Our room was spacious, clean, and quiet. The restaurant is quirky. Breakfast was ample servings.

We couldn’t have our dinner in the lounge and bar because it had been booked by others. Instead we had it in the rather stale dining hall which was empty. We just didn’t get the atmosphere and ambience we were seeking.

The quaint view of the sea across the fields and the lovely longe area with bar.

We did not book dinner reservations (on Fathers Day), so it seemed like it was an issue to squeeze us in (completely understandable). However, when we arrived at the appointed time, there were several tables open that remained open throughout our meal. It may have just been no-shows, but the effort to squeeze us in felt dramatic after the fact. Service was a tad slow for both breakfast and dinner, but very good otherwise. Our GPS had trouble getting us to the property, but I am assuming that our Europe chips do not reflect the “new” motorway and its exits.

Spacious room in the annex to the pub. Coffee/tea/hot chocolate and biscuits. Desk and power outlets on both sides of the bed. Garden view, and despite backing on to the motorway, surprisingly quiet. Good breakfast and Sunday roast dinner. They also allowed us to park our motorcycles out of sight from the road near the annex.

Beautiful pub and very comfortable rooms. Bed was really comfortable. Very clean and it allows dogs. Breakfast was amazing. We had dinner in the restaurant and it was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

There was absolutely nothing wrong about this Inn. It ticked all the boxes with no negatives I could see.

Accommodation was of a high standard. The Inn was in a lovely location close to where we needed to be. The staff were very friendly and keen to assist. We had to leave before breakfast on the Sunday, to attend a competition, however the staff provided take away coffees and hot rolls. Very considerate of them. The evening meal on the Saturday was freshly cooked, enjoyable and plentiful. Special mention to Hayley and Sam.

You do need a car as nothing is in walking distance.

Amazing food, incredibly friendly service. Grounds clean, tidy and spacious. The ythan 2 bedroom apartments was more than enough room for a family of four. Highly recommend.

It was a little difficult to figure out how to lock the door to our room. Instructions may be helpful to future guests.

Lovely accommodationa for one night mear the sea. The reataurant is cozy and the staff was very friendly. Would definitely recommend for a family of 3-4 traveling north of Aberdeen.

When it was time to leave as our stay was amazing.

The accommodation was beautifully decorated and was lovely and spacious. We were in one of the garden rooms and it was very quiet and perfect for us and the dog. The breakfast was a great start to the day and the food in the evening was excellent. We had fantastic meals every time we ate there. All the staff were welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We were within 5 minutes of the beach which was beautiful especially in the evening. A great location for exploring Aberdeen and the surrounding areas. I highly recommend it here and we can't wait to come back.
