Cosy, comfortable lodge sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms. Pet friendly!

Comfortable, three bedroomed dog friendly lodge in a peaceful location in rural Scotland.
Just five minutes drive from the bustling town of Banchory - and even closer to the village of Torphins in Aberdeenshire.
Clachnaben is large, comfortable and open plan, with patio doors onto a covered deck, three bedrooms (one ensuite) and a second full bathroom.
Fully equipped for family holidays.
Perfect base to explore the beautiful north east of Scotland with castles galore (including the Royal residence at Balmoral), majestic mountains, the River Dee, plentiful wildlife, mountain biking, hiking, plus skiing and boarding in winter.
Something for every season!

Great stay

We had a great stay in Clachnaben at Woodend of Glassel. We really liked the lodge and found so much do in the local area. The lodge itself was really clean, well appointed and felt nice and spacious for our holiday.

Well located, clean and good value.

This is a lovely lodge, clean and well located for the area. The only downside with a family of four was patchy wifi (something working off the mobile signal rather than a landline might be better).

This was an excellent stay for two couple and two children. Plenty of space and a huge wraparound deck. Very secluded and not overlooked or overlooking neighbours, although the other cabin was close enough to share with other friends or family. There are lots to do in the area with lovely walks, both challenging and easy along the river Dee. The property was spotless with everything you would need. I would recommend this for anyone wanting a wee break. We took the dog and he loved it.

Lovely stay in a lovely location

Thank you for a lovely stay. 6 of us stayed at the lodge and it worked really well for us. The lodge was spotless and a great base to visit our family across Aberdeenshire. Lots of birds and we even spotted a dear out of the window too. One word of warning, our satnav took us across the Cairn O Mount to get there. This is a very twisty, high mountain road. It would be a beautiful drive if this is your thing, but we found it a bit too much for us in our van so we had to turn around and came via Stonehaven instead. Not a problem at all, just worth knowing if you don't have a head for heights or are travelling in the winter . Thank you to Ursula for a lovely stay, we'd definitely stay again if we are in the area.
