We chose this property for its proximity to the Highland Games we were attending. The property looked nice on the website, and we saw that it had a restaurant, but everything about it exceeded our expectations! The room was beautiful (our compliments to the decorator) and we loved the Victorian high tank toilet. Each course of the meal was more amazing than the last, and from the awards on the wall I suppose we should not have been surprised. Our hosts were exceptional and we loved learning about the whiskey lockers!

Wonderful Experience.

Fantastic stay. Lovely room decor, food in restaurant was first class and the service from the staff was also superb. Enjoyed a wonderful evening with some whisky in the snug to finish with. Highly recommended.

Fabulous stay at Kildrummy Inn

Everything about our stay was perfect, the food was delicious, the room was beautiful and our hosts looked after us from the moment we arrived. The whisky snug was a great way to finish our evening after a fantastic meal. The refurbishment of the inn has been done to such a high standard - it was really stunning. Would thoroughly recommend.

Et super skønt sted, i udkanten af cairngorm nationalpark. Service helt i top, og meget lækker mad. Et sted vi vil vende tilbage til med stor glæde. Selvom vi kom lidt sent var værtinden meget venlig og gav os den bedste service.

Unique country inn in Aberdeenshire hills

A most comfortable and hospitable unique country inn - there are very few now left in the area-with excellent food, staff and service representing good value for money. The inn has received many deserved accolades for its cuisine and service. There are also 4 miles of trout and salmon fishing on the Upper Don making an ideal fishing break.

Excellent place to stay and eat.

This was an amazing place to stay out away from any real close towns. The food was excellent- not cheap but well worth the cost! The service was outstanding! I can not say enough good things!

Super service og fantastisk morgenmad. Desværre havde vi spist aftensmad inden vi ankom, da det ellers så ud til være rigtig lækker mad. Hyggelig barstue med god betjening.

Top-Hotel im Nirgendwo!

Unglaublich...da fährt man durch die Weiten Schottlands und irgendwann ist man dann in Kildrummy. Ein Nest. Aaaaaber...dieses Hotel sollte man sich nicht entgehen lassen! Die Zimmer sind unglaublich nett eingerichtet, sehr sauber und erfüllen jeden Anspruch. Auch die Wirtsleute sind extrem bemüht und nett. Das Hotel hat einen zusätzlichen Aufenthaltsraum, bei dem man unweigerlich an "Herren-Clubs" in England erinnert wird...mit Leder-Ohren-Sessel und allerlei Ramsch etc...TOTAL gemütlich für einen abendlichen Drink. Das Essen im Hotel (wo anders geht es kaum, da der Ort "Kildrummy" quasi gar nicht existiert!) ist sensationell gut (aber nicht gerade preiswert!), wie auch das Frühstück! Alles in Allem-SUPER!
