Cottage vacation rentals in Aberdeen

The place was exactly as described. Very peaceful and a brilliant location, not too far from shops etc. Inside was beautiful, really modern with good character. Hot tub was a great addition. Easy to check in and host provided the exact coordinates which made it a smooth arrival. Would definitely stay again :)

We had the most incredible stay at Mayen Estate! From the moment we arrived, Ross and Valerie made us feel so welcome. Ross was always helpful, polite, and attentive to every detail, ensuring we had everything we needed. Their hospitality truly made the experience unforgettable. I honestly don’t think I will ever forget the house and the stay at Mayen estate. The estate itself is beyond magical. Even in the depths of winter, when outdoor activities were limited, the sheer beauty and charm of the place were more than enough. The highlight for us was the hot tub—it was such a treat to relax in after a chilly day, adding a perfect touch of luxury to our stay. Every moment spent here felt like a dream. If you’re looking for a serene, magnificent escape where you’ll be cared for by amazing hosts, Mayen Estate is the place to be. We can’t recommend it enough and look forward to returning someday!

The best Airbnb we have ever stayed in. Beautiful location, cozy, relaxing and peaceful. Property had everything we needed. Stunning views from the Hot Tub. Host recommend booking a meal at local hotel and it was fantastic. Would highly recommend Brae Cottage.

My husband and I and our 20 year old daughter had a wonderful stay at Butler Cottage. The estate grounds are amazing with a mix of woodland and farm fields scattered over the hills. We enjoyed daily walks done and along the river. If your animal lovers like we are it was extra special. The Highland cows and sheep add beauty to the scenery, but the deer, hares, pheasants and other birds of prey really add the wow factor. The cottage is full of charm with an old world feel. It’s been very smartly renovated and decorated and is in great condition. We loved the farmhouse style kitchen which is open to a comfortable living room with high ceilings. The built in beds are beautifully done and although on the small side we enjoyed the authentic touch. The wood stoves on each end of the cottage work well to add extra warmth in the evenings. Ross was a gracious host. The place was with fresh flowers and a basket of fresh goods from the farm. He even had the fire started for the hot tub.

Our extended family have just had the pleasure of staying here for a long weekend. It provided a peaceful location for us all to unwind without any disturbance. The property was lovely and it is nice to see hosts invest in their property. Having stayed in many Airbnb's around the world, they are often lacking basic implements or only buying cheap crockery. If you are after a relaxing get away for your family then place this location on your wish list.

Our stay was flawless! From great food to an amazing, helpful host we had a great time. The Cottage was clean and welcoming and the host Alan spend time giving us food recommendations. Edzell is a lovely, quiet village with amazing restaurants and friendly people. Will definitely be back!

Great location with the grounds very well presented and extremely relaxing to walk around. Thanks to tim for greeting us and assiting with any questions duirng our stay. Would highly recommend!

We were extremely happy with Lundie Gate House. It’s our second time there and everything was perfect. There was lots of crafts, games and toys to keep our two granddaughters amused. Jacqueline left lots of lovely treats for us and the girls. We had a lovely time there and look forward to going back another time.

We had a wonderful stay at Craigiedows to celebrate my mum’s birthday. Its location in the stunning scenery of the Cairngorms, off the beaten track but easy enough to get to, made for a perfect stay over the sunny Easter weekend. Ishbel was very communicative and super helpful throughout our stay and would highly recommend her cottage to anyone looking for a bit of escapism!

We had a lovely time at Lucy’s place. Plenty of space for 6 adults. Well equipped kitchen. Beautiful surroundings with walks from the doorstep. Felt remote but only a short drive to Banchory if you needed the shops. We would definitely like to return.

Station cottage looks exactly like the photos you see. it's perfect for a few nights. both the old deeside railway line and the start of the walk around loch kinnord are right on the doorstep. the cottage is on a main road but is quiet enough at night and feels safe as the large garden is fully enclosed once the driveway gate is shut. there is a bus stop right outside in either direction so it is easy to get to ballater/braemar or banchory/Aberdeen if you don't want to drive everywhere. the stunning glen tanar estate is just a few minutes by car down the road. the jets in the bathtub were a welcome bonus after a long and stunning walk to burn o'vat via the loch and back. the kitchen had everything we needed to cook a nice Easter roast as well which was great. there is a washer/dryer if, like me you get somehow end up covered in mud after a walk. thanks guys, we'll be back in the future!

This is an outstanding place for kids and furry friends. Sue and Jim could not have been more helpful or welcoming - the cottage is pristine, cosy and with all you need no matter the weather. The grounds are stunning; affording you real privacy and lots to explore and do from climbing trees to den making, and all whilst surrounded by nature. You are only 10 mins from Inverurie which has plenty of shops to meet your needs. A trip to the Old Post Office for brilliant cakes, Castle Fraser and Kemnay are worth a visit as is the Pit Stop for a great fry up and the Gordon Highlanders museum is perfect for a raining day. Easily the most pet friendly place we have ever stayed.

The Bothy is a great place from which to explore the local area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would recommend.

Lovely cosy home from home. Comfortable beds, warm under floor heating, big living room, lovely views.

Fabulous stay at Myrtle Cottage which was very well equipped for all our needs and immaculate. We especially loved the wood burning stove and both front and back gardens for views and sunshine well into the evening. The cottage is in a quaint fishing village with beautiful scenery, a well stocked local shop and friendly pub with an extensive menu of local food. Very central for touring, favourite places were St Cyrus beach, Stonehaven harbour & Dunnoter Castle with plenty nice beaches and cafes all up the east coast. Steve was the perfect host responding very quickly to any little queries.

The cottage was great, we really enjoyed our stay there. It was very homely and well equipped. The country surroundings are beautiful, thank you!

for starters, the place is double the size we have imagined after looking at pictures. it is clean, warm, well equipped, cozy (had many naps in the armchairs, i have to admit), pet friendly. we sincerely did not want to leave. we have arrived late at night and Laura and Charlie came out to greet us, which felt very nice after countless key boxes when the host is nowhere to be find in other places... i can not not describe how much it meant to me when they gave me a birthday gift... i will forever greatful. i would recommend this place for anyone who is looking to explore The Cairngorms, any season of the year.

The cottage was lovely, well appointed and very well maintained. The bedrooms were spacious and there was lots of living space that allowed the family to get together or have some space. We enjoyed playing the games in the lounge. As a host Marion was friendly, responsive and very helpful. The welcome goods were appreciated and the cake was absolutely delicious.The cottage is well located for exploring Stonehaven and the surrounding area. As a family we had a wonderful time and would recommend Clerkswell Cottage.

Utterly beautiful. Waking in the morning enjoying the stunning scenery and gardens and then evenings watching movies with the log fire blazing afterfirest walks on your doorstep - incredible. The cottage is really spacious and loads of room in the bedrooms. Everything was spotlessly clean and beds super comfy. Bathrooms were great for us (family of four women from 85 to 25) Jennifer was very welcoming and it was nice to know she was on hand if needed - but left you alone too. Would 100% book again

Stayed here with my husband and daughter, who is considering attending the university. We wanted to be close to the uni, and this cottage is literally across the street! We loved the proximity to the historic buildings, the cobblestone streets, and the proximity to the bus routes. The cottage itself is very charming and comfortable. Decor is so fun and unique, the beds were so soft and comfortable, the shower was great—overall very clean and cozy! The owners were also very attentive, kind and responsive. Highly recommend!

Another great visit to Susan’s cottage. As always everything was perfect and just what we needed for a few days. Thanks 😊

Judith and Mark were awesome communicators. They were there to welcome us and answer any questions we had. The cottage was immaculate and the amenities were very nice. Parking was super easy, which is not always the case in Scotland! The cottage was adorable and had everything we needed. They provided coffee, tea and milk, which was an added bonus. Sitting on the back porch, drinking coffee in the morning was so peaceful and quiet. What a great way to start the day. The grounds and scenery were beautiful too! The Co-op supermarket is a two minute walk and had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone. Definitely a 10/10 stay!

We had a lovely stay at Kevin's place. Everything was as described very peaceful and comfortable like a home away from home. We had a couple of teething issues with the TV and Kevin took time to call us and talk us through the issue although it wasn't resolved this didn't affect our stay as there was a wide range of dvds to choose from which the kids loved. Plenty of walks for the dog round about and a shop 5 mins away for everything you need. We will definitely be back an amazing we cottage with everything you need in an idyllic locations. We visited Stonehaven whilst here which was only half hour drive away. Thanks for everything!
