Set in the heart of Royal Deeside, The Auld Kirk is a superb small hotel housed in a former Victorian "kirk" - or church - the oldest such building in Ballater. It has recently been refurbished to an extremely high standard, and boasts six en suite rooms, each individually furnished and decorated, making them stylish and comfortable. The interior blends contemporary styling with the many period features that have been retained, such as high, timbered ceilings and leaded windows, creating an atmosphere of informal elegance.

Food is the focus of attention at The Auld Kirk, and dining is a real pleasure in the restaurant, where all the produce used in the kitchen is fresh and locally sourced.

This small hotel is the ideal base from which to explore an area where history, heritage and sport combine to give the holiday of a lifetime. Being situated within the Cairngorms National Park, golf, shooting, angling, walking and a host of other outdoor activities are on the doorstep. Whilst set in the beauty of the Grampian Highlands, near to the royal residence of Balmoral, the Auld Kirk is less than an hours drive from the bustling city of Aberdeen.

The Auld Kirk offers Highland hospitality at its very best. The service is efficient, courteous and friendly, and the food - naturally enough - is out of this world!
