The city of Aberdeen is brimming with traditional pubs and cosy cafés, which are perfect for sheltering from the chilly Scottish coast. This granite-clad city might have a grey exterior, but has plenty of colour within. With its sandy beach and vintage amusement park, you might fancy a portion of fish and chips on a sunny afternoon. Just a fifteen-minute drive from the historic centre of Union Street, this apartment takes you out of the city to enjoy some serenity, while being close enough to the perks of urban life. Between the villages of Millitimber and Bieldside, this home stands out – as a former inn, its modern design contrasts beautifully with its historic, original water wheel. And inn-like hospitality carries into the 21st-century. Your host provides a generous welcome hamper upon arrival, with local Aberdeenshire goodies to start your trip right. Inside, the furnishings are all about luxe elegance. In a nod to The Granite City, a range of stylish greys are used for the plush sofas, walls, and dining area. Chrome and metallic silver features bring another edge to this palette, and grey quilted headboards in the bedrooms will see you off for a peaceful night.

About United Kingdom

Away from the bright lights and bustling marketplaces of London, the English countryside is home to chocolate box villages, stately homes straight out of period dramas and wild hinterland in the North where travel is by vintage steam train or in hiking boots.
