Ultimate 5 star luxury in Royal Deeside

Royal Deeside

A self-catering home in Royal Deeside has been awarded 5-stars from Visit Scotland before the first guest has even set foot in the cottage. 

The Invergarry, Aboyne has just launched to the market for the summer season.  Converted from an Edwardian gardener’s cottage, it is surrounded by the hills and close to the River Dee in the heart of Royal Deeside.

The owners have lovingly restored and extended The Invergarry over the last year.  This luxurious bespoke self-catering home is the perfect retreat for the ultimate romantic break.  Every detail for your comfort and enjoyment has been carefully considered.
