Glass of wine in hand, relax at The Lodge, a new kind of country retreat in the heart of Royal Deeside.  This 4-star back-to-nature bolthole is perched on the banks of the River Dee and was recently voted 3rd best restaurant view in the UK.

Kick off your shoes, get cosy by the log fire and feast on their award-winning food.  At the end of the day, fall asleep in their contemporary, newly refurbished bedrooms that are easy on the eye and soothing to the soul.
