Banff is a small and interesting market town with a rich heritage that includes palatial houses and medieval bridges. Those who enjoy being in the great outdoors should head to Banchory, where the River Dee is full of plump Scottish salmon. One of the best things to do is to plan a mini road-trip from your Aberdeenshire hotel. Stop off and explore some of the local towns such as Stonehaven, Ellon, Turrif, Fraserburgh and Huntly.
Holidays in the Aberdeenshire countryside
This is castle country and a favourite location for the Royal Family to come visit. In winter, the area is a hub for skiers at Lecht and Glenshee, whereas in summer Land Rover safaris tour Caledonian Forest for rare capercaillie-spotting. The market town of Inverurie is a great place to have a quick bite before launching yourself fully into the gorgeous Scottish countryside. The town is surrounded by rolling hills and offers numerous opportunities for fishing, birdwatching, and hiking. Arnhall Moss is Nature Reserve located near Westhill, just 8 miles west of Aberdeen. This is a fantastic place to explore the local fauna and flora or to simply follow one of the various signposted walks that will take you through the marvellous birch forests, bogs, and wetlands – a fantastic afternoon before returning to your Aberdeenshire hotel.
