Our places in Dinnet

Almost all of the places here follow the same pattern: two bedrooms, room for four and a dog-friendly policy. That makes choosing simple, but it also means little variety in layout or size. Only one place is built for two people, and one sleeps six in three bedrooms. Because so many places are alike, usual nightly prices are close to identical across most of them. The one-bedroom stay is the clear exception and costs far less. Couples on a smaller budget should start there, while families and friends travelling in fours have the widest choice.

Check dates

Dinnet sits on Royal Deeside, in Aberdeenshire, and the stays here suit couples and small families who want a base for walking and a dog by their side. Most places sleep four in two bedrooms, and almost nine in ten accept pets. Guests rate them very highly, at about 9.6 out of 10.

Prices sit at the dearer end for a village this size. A typical night costs well over what you would pay in nearby Ballater or Strachan, where the starting prices are far lower. Hot tubs are rare, with only one of the eight places having one, and that same place is also the cheapest night found. If a hot tub matters to you, the choice is narrow, so it is worth checking dates early. Larger groups have almost nothing to pick from, since the biggest place sleeps six.

Features

A barbecue is the most common feature, found at seven of the eight places. Hot tubs and gardens each appear only once, and they belong to the same one-bedroom place. That place is also the cheapest in the village, so a hot tub here does not push the price up the way it often does elsewhere. The barbecue places are the dearer ones, because they are the larger two-bedroom stays. If a hot tub is a must for you, there is effectively one option, and it is for two guests only. Groups wanting a tub will need to look in nearby villages.

By number of guests

Stays sleeping three to four make up six of the eight places, and they all have two bedrooms. Sharing is therefore the way to keep costs down in Dinnet. A couple booking a two-bedroom place pays the same total and gets more space, yet spends far more per person than a full group of four. The single six-guest place has no usual price shown, so check its dates directly before planning around it.

Prices month by month

Late autumn and early winter are the cheapest months, with November and December close together and January only slightly higher. Prices then climb clearly in February and again in April, which is the dearest month on the list. March sits between the two. Availability follows the same pattern: November has most dates open, December fewer, and from February onwards almost every date is free. A week costs a little more outside winter than inside it, but the difference is small. If you want the lowest price and a choice of dates, the early winter months give the best mix.

Around Dinnet

Several nearby villages have more places and lower starting prices. Ballater has the most, with ten, and Banchory follows with nine. Strachan has the lowest starting price of the group, and Insch and Ballater are also well below what a typical night costs in Dinnet. Coldstone and Brechin start somewhat higher, though still cheaper than Dinnet. These villages are useful if Dinnet is fully booked, if you want a hot tub or if you need space for a bigger group. Check the distances to the walks and places you plan to visit before you choose.
