This bed and breakfast was so beautiful and the hosts were so helpful. They gave us walking recommendations and even helped us when our rental car broke down. The rooms were so comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast was absolutely the best part of the stay. A wonderful selection of made to order breakfast set in a garden. We loved this location of Scotland. Thank you Alison and Les for the best part of our vacation!

We really enjoyed our stay at No. 45! The village of Ballater is super cute. The guest house had a wonderful host and we liked our room the best of all the places we stayed on our 10 day trip. We had a canopy bed, spacious room and face clothes! The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast delicious! We even had packed lunches made for us which we took when we checked out the next morning. They was tasty and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend this place!

Hidden Gem! Ended up in Ballater and at No 45 by default, which proved to be a blessing. We had planned to stay in Speyside for 3 nights, but our hotel only had availability for 2. We looked for somewhere in between there and St. Andrews, our next stop and happened upon Ballater and No 45. WOW! Gorgeous little town and top notch place! It's "vintage" yet with a fresh feel. In top notch shape! And breakfast was wonderful! We were so drawn to it that we're contemplating this being our "home base" for our next Scotland trip! P.S. Bonus was the river that runs through town. We arrived a bit early...before our room was ready. A walk along the river was suggested and it did not disappoint! Next time we will allow time for my husband to fish!
