“room with a view!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Our room in Stonehaven was at the top of the B&B so there were a lot of stairs to climb - kinda tough on the knees! But the view was worth the climb! Our room was roomy, clean and comfortable. The bathroom was really nice and big - which can be unusual for bathrooms in the UK. Most all I have been in have been clean and fine but tend to be on the small side - this one was very large! From our room we could see over most of the rooftops of the other houses all the way to the sea! It was really beautiful. The walk into town was only a few blocks. We also walked to the harbor where some of the nicer restaurants were located. It is a bit of a walk but worth it. The walk is along the beach and once you get to the harbor it is very picturesque. Breakfast was served in the sun room right off the art gallery room. The food was yummy and lots of it! All the toast and tea you could handle. You will enjoy your stay at Arduthie House.

“Bed and Breakfast in an Art Gallery!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 July 2011

There is not enough space in this review box to tell you all of the great things about the Arduthie House. Bed and Breakfast in an Art Gallery!!!
Dennis is a most excellent host and prepares a truly great breakfast. His restaurant recommendations were outstanding. The rooms were some of the most tastefully appointed in my two week stay in Scotland. Thanks for the excellent accommodations!!

“A perfect start of our holiday!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2010

We started our holiday in Stonehaven, which was definitely a perfect town to spend a couple of days (great harbour, lovely restaurants and great sea views). Really happy we decided to book a room in Arduthie house! A lovely room, great breakfasts, a nice gallery inside the B&B, and a welcoming host. Great stay!

“wonderful place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2010

One night stay only, but we have really appreciated the place. Near the sea, view on the water, wonderful bathroom, excellent breakfast, welcoming host (we only met him, not the wife). Definitely among the best places I've stayed in.

“Superb Accommodation”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 March 2010

This is a lovely guesthouse, right in the centre of Stonehaven, but set far enough back so that traffic noise never intrudes. Our room, a little small for a double (acknowleged by owner, to be fair) was delightful, well-appointed and an exceptional en-suite shower room provided a welcome conclusion to our busy day. We appreciated the free Wi-Fi access - not something that can be taken as read, even in quite big hotels.
Breakfast was a delight, sitting in the conservatory dining room.
Car parking could be a problem. We were lucky and found a space immediately across the road.
Overall, great value for money in a lovely house with a most welcoming host. Highly recommended.
