The Dowans Hotel of Speyside, hotel in Aberlour

Set high above the village of Charlestown of Aberlour and overlooking the River Spey, this elegant country hotel is an ideal venue for shooting and fishing, and for whiskey-lovers.

This was the most exceptional stay of our entire trip to Scotland. Luxurious stay with comfortable rooms. Quiet and relaxing. The dinner was fantastic and we sincerely appreciated how they run their dinner in multiple rooms starting with cocktails in the library. The staff was so accommodating as we needed to park early since we had an all day distillery tour. Breakfast was fantastic!

Cardhu Country House, hotel in Aberlour

Welcome to Cardhu Country House which sits in the very heart of the Malt Whiskey Trail.

We loved the country location and house - it was quite convenient having a very nice whisky distillery just a five minute walk away 😊. Other distilleries, fishing spots, restaurants etc. were quite close by car. Breakfast was delicious (perfect eggs) and our hosts could not have been nicer and more helpful. Sorry, I thought I reviewed earlier but I guess it didn’t go through. Highly recommend.

Coachmans Cottage, hotel in Aberlour

Coachmans Cottage is located in Aberlour, just 23 miles from Brodie Castle and 27 miles from Grantown Museum.

An amazing cottage - with such character and all the modern amenities. Our hosts had thought of everything - so many nice touches. Sharon and Kevin have done a masterful job on the Coachman's Cottage and we had plenty of room for a family of 4 adults. There was such great communication before, during, and after the trip that I felt like we had made new friends! So many great recommendations and the cottage is wonderfully suited central location from exploring the beaches in the north to the many whisky distilleries. The only thing we didn't like was . . . leaving!

    Great butchers on the high street, amazing deli and wine...

    Great butchers on the high street, amazing deli and wine shop and a great whiskey shop as well. Decent local supermarket. The Hotel has a really nice bar that serves excellent draught beers. Plenty of local whiskey distilleries. Brilliant fish and chip shop. Beautiful walks along the river and a decent play area for children. Amazing fishing on the river spey that can be booked at The Aberlour Hotel and the cost doesn't break the bank.

    A nice little town with all the basics, Co-op, Ironmongers, Paper shop and Spey Larder with luxury foods. A good Fish & Chip Shop and Chinese Takeaway. The river walks run very close to the town centre. There are a couple of pubs, at least, but we didn't try any. A pretty Scottish Highland Town with beautiful countryside surroundings. And quite level to walk around.

    Walkers shortbread factory shop in the village.

    Walkers shortbread factory shop in the village. On the whisky distillery trail. Close to Aviemore and Grantown on spey. Not far from the coast. Some lovey walks and wild life. Only a few restaurants so be sure to book early.

    If you are a whisky lover, the place needs no introduction.

    If you are a whisky lover, the place needs no introduction. If not, still a pretty little village in a scenic setting. Lots of waking opportunities and ever more distillery visit chances. As they all close at 5 or before, we developed a habit of visiting well-appointed whisky bars, which offer you an amazing selection of a wide range of brands. They even provide fair advice on dram discoveries, I suppose less biased than at any distillery.

    The walk along the river spey is very easily accessible and an easy and beautiful walk. The chippy is good. The Dowans Hotel was excellent. The Mash Tun had good atmosphere and choice of whisky but the food was average. Public transport is good and the bus stand in the town displays electronic bus times. Parking in the town is free and plentiful. There is a beautiful delicate essence/food and sandwich shop called the Speyside Larder.

    Our first time in that neck of the woods.

    Our first time in that neck of the woods. Aberlour is positively huge in comparison to a much smaller Dufftown, where we started our trip! Both towns, and all the surrounding areas are beautiful, calm, quiet, feeling very secluded and out of the way when coming up from Edinburgh! The walks anywhere around there are amazing, but especially in Aberlour along the river Spey, which looked wild, pristine, clear and sparkling. Mash Tun hotel and whiskey bar is amazing, and the food better than anywhere we have eaten in the Highlands, and better than most places in Edinburgh.

    Unique and charming decor, very much in keeping with the locality. Michelle had really thought through everything guests would need for a comfortable stay, with lots of special touches and treats, including a sample of whisky to get us started in addition to essential provisions. Aberlour was a great base for a holiday and the information provided helped us find the best places to go. We felt very welcome and cared for, exceptional for a self-catering place and excellent value.

    The location is perfect to visit distilleries in Speyside. It is safe, private, and quiet. The hosts are nearby and they are responsive and welcoming. The room itself is more like a small house, homey and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is extraordinarily well equipped. There are thoughtful, cozy amenities all throughout. We stayed there on the coldest days of the year and there were many means to keep ourselves and the room warm.

    Just a lovely hotel, beautifully decorated. I stayed in the single room in the attic, which all kitted out perfectly. Bed and pillows were great. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Lovely breakfast selections. Don’t miss the chance to have Afternoon Tea with savory and sweet selections plus a scone with clotted cream (like whipped butter) and jam.

    Lovely little family run B&B where the hosts, Jim & Eileen, made us feel like family. Meals were great, room very comfy, located a few moments walk to the Speyside Trail for some lovely hiking. Easy drive to the many distilleries that make Speyside the center of the whisky universe, many beautiful walks/hikes in the area.

    I was taking part in a charity trek across Scotland and without asking, this hotel seen my challenge on social media and gave me an upgrade, free room & free meal for the night. Totally not expected and they went above and beyond during my stay - even sorting me out with a bucket of hot salty water for my feet!! ha

    The cottage is great, well-equipped and in a very convenient location, close enough to Aberlour to walk (and there's a walkway along the main road). The living room makes for a lovely place to chill at the end of a day exploring the area. And Michelle was a very good, responsive and at the same time discreet host.

    Good location to visit places although I was there to visit family. Parking outside the door Close to restaurants but try to book early. I arrived on the Saturday and couldn't get in anywhere in Aberlour or the next village Craigellachie. Drove quite a distance until I managed to get in somewhere.

    The tub alcove in the turret was beyond fantasy! Breakfast and dinner and location all marvelous, and the town of Aberlour with Speyside walk, woodland walks, distilleries and let's not forget the Walkers shortbread factory was a lovely stop on our tour of highlands and islands. Well done!

    I have stayed in the Mash Tun on numerous occasions and always have enjoyed my stay, due to the friendliness of staff etc. and the excellent food and room comfort. However on this recent visit, the only positive was the room comfort.
