Sarah was wonderful. It was my first time staying in a Guest House/B&B and I was nervous about the host being overbearing. Not at all! She was so nice, helping me sort the locks on the doors, dinner, and gluten free breakfast and packed lunch! Thank you!

The general ambience and atmosphere. The food was good and the bar had a good choice of beers. The person who checked me in was helpful in that he locked my bike securely in the cellar.

Fantastic facilities, charming house, beautiful surroundings and very helpful and friendly hosts making you feel at home.
The house is charming, has two lounge areas with real fireplaces, well equipped kitchen, big dinning area and an outdoor area. Place was nice and warm despite freezing temperatures outside.
The area is perfect for hikes and only a few minutes from the Glenshee ski centre.
Tim and Helen are wonderful hosts with plenty of knowledge and tips about things to do in the area.
Lovely village with interesting shops,. We enjoyed an excellent dinner at Farquharsons which we rated as the best meaL of our holiday and there was a good lively atmosphere in the bar/restaurant, with friendly staff. Easy access to countryside rides.

Braemar is in Royal Deeside.
Braemar is in Royal Deeside. It is a small, picturesque village loved by walkers and tourists alike. Rightly proud of its history and royal connections.. it has lots to offer. It is the gateway to the Cairngorms, quaint local gift shops and lovely restaurants and bars. You can choose then to take the scenic route over the hills to Perth via Glenshee ( take a tour of the local gin distillery at Persie ) or take the coast road via Ballater, Aboyne and Banchory to the city of Aberdeen. We certainly enjoyed our visit and plan to return next year.

Clean, friendly with plenty of eateries and pubs.
Clean, friendly with plenty of eateries and pubs.
Best food and pub for me was Moorfield House Hotel. A little tucked away but worth the effort.
Loads of walking from local strolls to mammoth Munro hikes.
The countryside and wildlife is fantastic.
Cranford Guest House is perfectly placed to explore the local area, including within a very short walk into Braemar for food/shops. Sarah and Al were incredibly welcoming hosts. The bedroom, breakfasts, parking, facilities and local info were all provided to a really high standard. We'll definitely be back!
The location was ideal, just on the outstirts of Braemar, very quiet but easy walking distance of town centre.
The facilities were good, comfortable and very clean.
The breakfast was one of the best I've ever had, perfect for the morning after watching England beat Germany.
Malcolm and Stacie are great hosts. They run a set of well designed, nicely decorated, comfortable, family-friendly cabins. Their location is an easy walk from Braemar's charming center. The open design of the social area works great for a family group.
Location was superb - right in the middle of Braemar and all its amenities. We didn't have to get in the car again for 2 days as there were so many wonderful places to explore on foot and on 2 wheels. Stunning scenery and so much history.
Fabulous hotel in a beautiful setting ….
If you want a traditional Scottish Interior this is the place ….
Staff were very friendly and accommodating …
Food was outstanding … the chef’s attention to detail is on point !!
Sadly 24 hours after we left, this lovey hotel burned to the ground.
Further comments would be pointless.
Best wishes and good luck to the owner Malcom and his family.
