Brilliant base for walking The (41 mile) Deeside Way from Aberdeen to Ballater.The route actually goes right passed the front door.Apartment is very comfortable and for the most part quiet....road a little noisy/busy so used the main bedroom rather than the twin.Neighbour had TV on loudly after midnight on the Saturday night which was irritating!The facilities excellent, great bathroom and kitchen and huge Smart TV. Really useful dishwasher and washing machine.High Street just a short walk away (slightly uphill). Yeadons bookshop worth a visit on the way....also local castles, Crathes and Craigievar superb, NT membership helpful. Good superstore at Hill of Banchory with another one slightly closer on the main road towards Aberdeen, both national chains.Smaller chain supermarket in main Banchory High Street.Would highly recommend the apartment!
