This isnt the first time I have stayed here but wanted to share the trip. We went out for the day and decided as it was good weather to keep on going, we got here at 6pm and they were able to accomodate us. The rooms are in chalets at the back, they are big and comfortable with great beds... More

We stayed at the barrack-like building behind the actual hotel. The rooms were quite spacious, silent and clean. Few of us had a cold shower since the warm water started to run after a LONG wait. In every other way the rooms were as you'd suspect them to be. The service was really friendly and the breakfast was good, taken... More

Stayed in Feb 08. The propertiers are welcoming and helpful. Gave good information about the distileries and the cooperage. The room was large, comfortable clean and warm. Good shower. Dufftown is the capital of the malt whiskey trail.

Loved this little hotel/pub in the heart of Dufftown. Dufftown is the centre of the SpeySide Whiskey area. We stayed in the rooms behind the pub so it was quiet and parking was good. The staff were wonderful and made us feel welcome. Breakfast was superb with the chioce of Traditional English or Scottish breakfast. We will return. We hoping... More

We went on this David Urquhart Weekend Trip and to be honest was excellent value for money, the only downside was that if the weather is bad there is not much to do in Braemar, most of the tourists on coach were pensioners, therefore, entertainment (which I may add was good) finished at 10.30pm when everyone then went to bed....

The title says it all, breakfast was decent but nothing special. The rooms were small but clean. However it was very noisy (you are attached to a pub). As far as Dufftown goes it isn't bad, close to some good hikes but don't expect stellar accommodations in this tiny town.

We stayed @ the Fife Arms as part of a 5 day 4 night coach package. with David Urquhart Travel. The whole deal was very good value for the money we paid. On first look, the overall apperance was a bit worrying, it looked as if it had a hard life. Inside it was welcoming with a well worn look.... More

Stayed here for 2 nights. The room was clean and tidy with a nice bathroom and reasonably large shower. The room(which was more like a chalet) was at back of hotel and fairly quite. The actual chalet block reminded me of holiday camp chalets of old. Breakfast was served in the lounge as there was no seperate dining room. The... More

We (two senior ladies and a younger couple) stayed here for one night in mid-Sept and it was fine. Our rooms were in the back (w/parking) and very quiet. Our twin room was small and plain but clean and had all the usual amenities (coffee/tea/snacks, hair dryer, soaps/shampoos) . . . and even a huge walk-in closet with lockable gun... More
