About this cottage rental

Grouse, Golden Eagles, Sea Eagles, Osprey, Red Deer, Roe Deer, Otters and much much more are found in abundance on these estates.

Wonderful cottage in a great location with which to explore the Cairngorms. The cottage itself was clean, bright, easy to find, and had everything you could need. Check in was easy and the owners were very helpful and communicative. Most everything you could need is in Ballater, a couple of miles away, including a grocery, petrol station, health center, and a number of restaurants and pubs. Walks are available right outside the door and only about a 20 minute drive to Lock Muick, which was one of the highlights of our trip. We had a terrific stay and would absolutely book again. Five stars!

A magnificent property that fully lived up to expectation. Ideally suited for visits to Ballater, Braemar, Balmoral and Deeside as a whole. The options for walking with our dog were endless….. he had a fabulous time as well. The garden was safe and extensive. Need to thank Dan for making sure that we were properly prepared for Storm Babet. We will return.

Great place to stay, great location, and lovely and friendly hostess that provided us with freshly laid eggs. We have visited Ballater many times but never stayed in the area and it was well worth the wait. Great to have the large enclosed garden for the dogs. First self catering holidays that have provided Glencairn glasses to drink my whisky out off, first class. Hope to go back again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our new year stay at Croft Mill. Great wee property half an hours walk into Ballater Town centre. We were lucky to get 6 inches of snow the night we arrived. Made our stay a little bit magical! Thank you!
