No. 45Guest House

No. 45 Guest House occupies a Victorian granite house on Braemar Road in Ballater, built in the 1890s and set within an acre of walled garden. The family-run guest house has retained original features including a pitch pine staircase and open fires, and offers eight individually decorated en suite bedrooms alongside a self-catering garden cabin for guests wanting more independence. It sits within walking distance of Ballater's shops and the start of several Royal Deeside walking routes, making it a base for visitors exploring the area on foot. The owners manage bookings and breakfast themselves rather than through a management company, and the guest house has no sister properties elsewhere. Garden access is shared with guests staying in the main house and in the cabin alike.
