    Dinnet is lovely, very small village with stunning countryside. A lovely place to stay particularly in summer months and to explore by walking, cycling or driving. It is very rural and use of a car advantageous to explore surrounding area, eating out etc. Access to taxis is limited although believe there are buses. Not there long enough to explore further as there for an event.

    The cheerful smiley welcome.

    The cheerful smiley welcome. The lack of rush and noise everywhere. The place simply did what it does very well - a warm, quiet, friendly place with pleasant rooms, an imaginative menu offering a variety of food which must suit most. people, superbly cooked and presented by jolly staff.

    Beautiful small village, quite and peaceful but with a hotel/bar if you need it. Within easy striking distance of shopping/restaurant facilities and close to all the natural beauty which surrounds.

    We stayed in one of the cabins, which were equipped with everything you need. And located in a quiet environment apart from the hotel, without being troubled by other guests. Beds were OK but not the best, and some facilities needed some work, but the peaceful location, very close to the beautiful nature, totally made up for this. Dinnet is very small and only has a nice hiking trail around Loch Kinord to offer; however it is close to other Cairngorms places and many castles as well.

    Lodge was comfortable, in a very pleasant position on the edge of the woods and was very conveniently located for us as visitors to Deeside Gliding Club. Although the Lodge had no washing machine, the hotel provided a good washing service at reasonable cost. The shower in the Lodge was excellent.

    The hotel has a very friendly atmosphere and our room was very comfortable and clean. The staff were always on hand and were relaxed and very welcoming. Dinner was delicious and we were hard pushed to eat an equally tasty breakfast the following mornings!

    Beautiful area and the photos don't do the hotel justice. Beautiful porches/balconies, great location for Balmoral or outdoor recreation. Breakfast was terrific and the staff was attentive to our every need. Hope to come and stay here again soon!
