"Centrally located. Beautiful hotel with old-world charm. Lovely staff. Cute pub, finally found non-fried fish! Dog friendly. Even had boots to borrow to keep our shoes clean! Fabulous walking area, sweet little town. Close to many sights."

"Beautiful hotel our bedroom could be bigger but comfortable enough. Staff friendly and helpful. Everything spotless. Food nice and cooked well."

"lovely location, room was small but well decorated and clean, very comfy bed and pillows and good shower. Room was very warm even with windows open and unfortunately I didn’t sleep well because of this. We were really disappointed that the TV in our room wasn’t working - spoke to a staff member who said they would come and have a look but they didn’t show up. Called reception at least 4 times but no answer. The TV wouldn’t turn back off either so was left with the light of that through the night. Dinner was delicious although starters and deserts slightly pricey, nice cocktails and breakfast was very tasty too, plenty of options. Service was great in the restaurants, plenty of staff and very attentive."

"Lovely Village Hotel full of character and log fire's. The Bar has a good feel to it. The food was excellent and so was the breakfast. Will recommend to my friends and family. "

"On accommodation alone, 5 stars. Staff were lovely and accommodating. Restaurant was good but just that. Service excellent but food unexceptional. Okay but I've had better. A lot of it felt bought in rather than developed and cooked on site."

"Fantastic stay. Lovely room decor, food in restaurant was first class and the service from the staff was also superb. Enjoyed a wonderful evening with some whisky in the snug to finish with. Highly recommended."

"Had great service from Oliva during dinner and was very accommodating and helpful . "

"People are really Great. We ate at the pub inside the hotel and food was good and service was quick. Rooms were warm and big. Full size tub was cool"

"If you are looking for peace, quiet and the experience of remote living in Scotland the White House is just perfect. Car necessary as it’s a 25 min drive to nearest town with facilities. We had hired cars which was just as well as there was no way our own cars could have coped with the terrain and the snowy weather. We arrived at 5pm - really dark outside so we couldn’t find house at first. Host answered phone immediately and gave us instructions. The house is at the end of a track which is quite bumpy and pot holed. The house is large and comfortable. It is quite old fashioned. It has lovely grounds and the views from the windows are gorgeous. There were 7 in our family staying but plenty of space for us all. The 4 bedrooms were basic but comfy beds. You cannot use the central heating but the host had left some portable radiators for each of the rooms. We were a bit a cold at times especially at this time of year (January). The kitchen is excellent - very well stocked with utensils etc so we had some great dinners cooked. There is no WiFi and the TV only works if you have data yourself. To be honest we did not miss watching TV and just played music through the Bluetooth speaker the host had left. There were lots of games too so we had fun going through these too. We went out for dinner the first night to Ballater and the drive back was a bit scary going up the hills in the dark. Many lovely places to explore in surrounding area on foot or by car. "
