On arrival we were greeted by the landlord, who made us feel extremely welcome. He showed us around the restaurant and communal lounge areas and then on to our room. You can see as soon as you walk in that the place is kept spotlessly clean and has been decorated to a very high standard indeed. Our room was spacious, immaculately clean with a lovely en suit, equipped with a very powerful shower. The bed was also very comfy. What made the stay so special (besides the hospitality of the landlord) was undoubtedly the breakfast. This was requested each day by ticking the items you want on the request sheet provided, which has a large selection of items available. It’s then left for the landlord and a perfectly cooked breakfast is set down for you next morning. He claims he has never worked as a chef, but I’m not so sure, I’ve never had eggs so perfectly presented. Anyone who wanted something not listed, never seemed a problem either, as he went out of his way to try and provide it. Our first time in Ballater and it is filled with very friendly people, a few of which we met in one or two of the bar/restaurants we visited during our stay. Without question, the best B&B we have ever stayed in and I would highly recommend.
