Perfect stay!

Our stay at The Gordon Guest House was perfect! We got an upgrade to suite room which offered us an amazing view of the mountain in the morning. The suite room had luxurious jacuzzi and a very big bathroom. The bed was very comfortable and the room was set at a cozy temperature. We felt very welcome. The breakfast was made as per choice. It was prepared by the hosts themselves. The delicious breakfast made our morning and we had a very good start of the day, enroute to starting our NC500 journey. Beth and Steve are great hosts and we had a very engaging conversation on topics such as Indian music, Scottish Highland life. We would definitely come back again if we visit Ballater. Highly recommended!

Friendly, comfortable, quiet - couldn't ask for more

Gorgeous guest house, lovely rooms, most comfortable bed of our entire 1-week holiday! Hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, and breakfast was just superb. Rooms were quiet, and I loved the eco-friendly approach - even a recycling bin in the room, and the option of a little flask of milk for your tea, instead of little plastic pots. Lovely views of the hills around and of Ballater. I would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful stay at The Gordon Guest House

Wow, where to start. We had an amazing stay at The Gordon Guest House. Just wonderful. The room was large with a massive bathroom, and the bed was incredibly comfy. It's also so quiet, so a great nights sleep. The breakfast was superb and Beth and Steve have such high attention to detail on everything in the property; they have USB charging ports in the bedroom, lots of lovely snacks, weather forecast for the day laid out, endless maps of places to visit and restaurant options available. Both Beth and Steve are super knowledgeable on the area and provided really interesting and great insight on where to go and what to visit. There is also free parking out the front of the guest house as well. The wifi was also great throughout the property so if you do need to do some work this is possible. The property was very clean, and it's in a great location as well. The property is close to the end of the old railway line, which provides walks and cycle routes, it's next to a number of restaurants and Coop, and it's super quick to get out to Braemar and Balmoral Castle.

Absolutely incredible!

My husband and I stayed here for a couple nights before our wedding day as a little pre-honeymoon and it truly exceeded our expectations. Steve and Beth are absolutely amazing hosts who go above and beyond at every opportunity. From giving directions to the property, recommending activities every morning during (delicious) breakfast, offering plates and cutlery when we ordered take away, etc.. They even made sure we had their contact info in case we needed anything after we checked out, and gave us a congratulations card for our wedding! We will definitely be back here to celebrate our anniversaries in the future.
