We enjoyed every aspect of our stay at Douneside House. The facility was spectacular, the grounds were immaculate, but most of all, the staff was ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING in all respects!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We arrived after the dining room was closed (our fault) but they still went above and beyond to provide us with a wonderful meal. We will definitely stay at Douneside House on our next trip.

Superb stay in a lovely country house hotel
My wife and I had a superb overnight stay at this lovely country house hotel. The welcome we received from the staff was like nothing we'd experienced before - it was as if we were old friends coming to visit rather than first-time customers. The grounds were beautiful and the common areas full of character. We dined in the conservatory restaurant on the Table d'hote menu and the food was fabulous throughout all three courses. If I were to make some minor criticisms, I'd point out that we only had one chair in our room, which seemed a little odd considering it was described as a "double room with seating area". Also, there was no mention of ironing facilities in the guest information book, and whilst we did next morning find the relevant details stashed in a drawer, it was too late to be of use. However, these did not detract from our overall enjoyment, and we would have no hesitation in staying here again, or recommending Douneside House to others.

Beautifu, quiet, rural luxury hotel
This is an absolutely delightful place for a quiet, peaceful luxurious stay in the most magnificent rural Scottish countryside. We would not hesitate to recommend anyone to take time out to enjoy Douneside and it's immaculate facilities. All the staff were efficient and friendly and were a credit to the MacRobert trust organisation and the memory of that amazing family.

Fantastic place!
We had an absolutely lovely time at the Douneside! We stayed in Casa 21, which was perfect for us as it had two separate bedrooms and a separate kitchenette/lounging space. The staff were wonderful to us - really made us feel at home, and gave us some nice insight into the history of the place. The meal was 5-star (but be aware that it is a leisurely dinner, not something you can rush in and out of). We would 100% pick this as our first choice if we return to the area.

We enjoyed our stay at Douneside, the hotel is lovely and staff were friendly and welcoming. We really enjoyed dinner, it was a lovely dining experience. We made use of the great range of leisure facilities too. The grounds and view from the hotel are beautiful and there are lots of walks to do around Tarland. We will visit again.

Dear Guest Many thanks for your review and the 5 star rating. We pride ourselves on the high standards that we have set ourselves and it is great to read that overall these expectations were met. We are as you have noticed a very small team and often the person in reception is helping the restaurant team. Nevertheless this is no excuse and I have shared your feedback with the team in order to rectify this point. Please contact me directly when you wish to return, I'd be delighted to assist you personally. Kind regards Marcel Wassen General Manager

Lovely country home hotel
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Douneside House. It is a facinating place with an amazing history. The hotel and grounds are spectacular and the staff are wonderful. There was a mix up with the description of our room booked on Expedia. It was described and booked as a double but I fact was 2 twins. The staff were very accommodating and moved us to a much larger unit once available. The dining experience was wonderful, from drinks in the bar pre dinner to the exceptional food served in the dining room. We were impressed every night. We had a lovely stay and would love to return and enjoy more of the facilities of the resort.

Heaven on Earth
Douneside is nothing short of amazing. Our family played croquet on the immaculate lawn whilst sipping excellent GnT's. / At the end of our stay, I jokingly asked if I could volunteer there, just so I could enjoy the grounds. Everything you could want in a country stay. Two days after we left, our 8 year old son asked "Can we go back to Douneside?" What they don't tell you is that the hotel is run by a charitable trust so that all profits go to charities for veterans. The history of Douneside is humbling.

Lovely hotel in the middle of nowhere
I stayed here for business at the Glenfiddich distillery about an hours drive north in Dufftown. I chose it mainly for access to a gym and didnt really spend much time around the hotel or the local area so can't comment on these. The gym was nice with a nice pool and spa tub as well as some free weights, treadmills and spin bikes. The room was luxurious and the food was different class!!!!
