Our lodges and cabins in Aberdeenshire
The range runs from compact cabins for two to large houses for groups of up to 18. Typical stays sit in the middle, sleeping 3 to 6 with two or three bedrooms. Guests rate the places highly, at about 9.2 out of 10 on average. Prices are usually lower than you might expect for a region with this much scenery, though a handful of country properties sit well above the rest. If you are after a short break, check weekends and midweek dates separately, since availability differs between them.

A family or a group of up to six will find the most room in the Deluxe Four-Bedroom Lodge, which covers 920 sq ft. It has four bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Aberdeenshire has lodges on Royal Deeside and along the coast, close to castles and whisky distilleries.
Aberdeenshire covers a lot of ground, from the Moray Firth coast around Lossiemouth to the hills and river valleys of Royal Deeside. The lodges follow that spread.
Most places are made for small groups. Stays for 3 to 6 guests make up the bulk of the choice, and they cost about the same per night as a stay for two, so a group shares the bill easily. Around four in ten have a hot tub and a similar share have a log burner. Dogs are accepted at roughly two thirds of the places, which suits walking breaks on the coast and in the glens. Larger houses for 12 or more are fewer and cost much more, though the cost per person drops back.
Where to stay in Aberdeenshire
Lossiemouth has the largest choice by far, with 31 places and usual prices below the county figure, but none has a hot tub. Stonehaven and Ballater are cheaper than the county typical too, and Ballater has hot tubs at about six in ten of its places. Turriff and Elgin lean towards hot tubs, though Elgin has few places in total. Aberlour, Dinnet and Alford are much dearer, which reflects larger or more estate-style properties rather than a standard cabin. Coldstone is a cheaper inland option.

Features
A garden is the most common feature, at nearly two thirds of places. Log burners come next at about 41%, then hot tubs at 39%. Hot tubs add a clear premium, as stays with one usually cost noticeably more than those with a garden or log burner alone. Places with a swimming pool are usually cheaper than the typical stay, which suggests holiday parks with shared facilities. Sea view stays are also slightly under the usual price. Fishing is offered at about one place in ten.

By number of guests
Stays for 2, for 3 to 4 and for 5 to 6 all cost about the same per night, so larger groups get much better value per person. A group of five or six pays roughly a third of the per-person rate that a couple pays. Prices jump for 7 to 9 guests and again for 12 to 14, where a night costs several times the usual one. Per person, these big houses still cost less than a stay for two. Only three places sleep 15 or more, so book those early.
Nightly prices stay in a narrow band from November to April. November is the cheapest of the months shown, and February and April are the dearest. December costs a little more than November, but the gap is small. Availability tells a clearer story. Fewer places are free in November and December, while March and April have more free dates. If you want a choice of cabins, spring is easier. For the lowest prices, go in November or March.

All towns in Aberdeenshire
Choose a base by what you want nearby. Deeside towns such as Ballater and Banchory suit walking and castle visits. Stonehaven and Lossiemouth put you close to the coast. Elgin, Aberlour and Dufftown are good for the whisky trail. Check how far a cabin sits from the nearest shop, since many rural places are a drive from groceries. Winter days are short, so allow for driving in daylight on minor roads.
