Dog Friendly Braemar Holiday Cottages

Braemar is a spectacular, small village in the North East of Scotland. This is a perfect destination with castles, deer, rugged sweeping mountain views, ancient woodlands, rivers, fishing, and whisky. Just a few miles away from Morrone Birkwood Nature Reserve, Glenshee Skiing Centre and, with its own golf course, it's no wonder that this area outdoor leisure enthusiasts have enjoyed the area for centuries.

At Dog Friendly Cottages we know that your holidays aren't complete without your furry friend. That's why we specialise in dog-friendly cottages in Braemar. Whether you want an old-fashioned cottage to relax in after a long day of walking, others like the charm of a glamping pod or a renovated castle. Whatever your style, we have something to suit.

Braemar is situated next to the world-famous Cairngorm National Park, which boasts an impressive 24 Munros! Mountain climbers and hill walkers are exceptionally well-catered for. There's salmon fishing at the River Dee, and the beautiful Braemar Castle to explore. Every September Braemar hosts the much beloved Highland Games - with its pipe bands and highland dancing competitions, the games are hugely popular with locals and tourists alike, and are often visited by Royals. So book now for your chance to stay in this stunning and historic part of the Scottish Highlands.

What our customers say about their holidays

  • Keith Hammersley - Verified booking

    I've just returned from spending a great week with friends at Drumrunie and would have no hesitation at all in recommending it as somewhere to stay in the area.

    We were a party of seven and were easily accommodated in the house, which is bigger than the photos might suggest, and which is very well laid-out - we didn't fully appreciate that until we'd been there for a short while, but it soon became apparent. Our trips to Scotland are an annual event, and we've stayed in some beautiful houses, but in many of them the kitchen has been separated from the lounge areas, sometimes by several other rooms; in Drumrunie the galley kitchen joins the main lounge (which comfortably seated all seven of us) to the conservatory, meaning that those involved in preparing and cooking meals were still part of the group, a big plus and there was a second, equally-comfortable, lounge where those looking for peace and quiet could read undisturbed. The kitchen was extremely well-stocked with utensils, crockery and cutlery, we could easily have eaten a number of meals without using the same items twice - although the two dishwashers meant that wasn't necessary and made it easy to keep up with the chores! The house was not only well-stocked but well-prepared, a good deal of effort had clearly gone into making sure we'd be happy as soon as we walked in the door and the owner, Patrick, even phoned us on our first morning to make sure we'd settled in OK and had everything we needed! Outside, the house is set in beautiful, well-maintained gardens and there are fantastic views in just about every direction. The house is a couple of minutes walk from the centre of Braemar, which boasts a variety of shops, a number of lunch venues and a bistro and a couple of hotels for evening meals (conveniently, a side road halfway down to the village led to an hotel which offered several excellent real ales, the only ones to be had in Braemar, we were told). There was a variety of good walks in the area, ranging from short, relatively flat, strolls to longer, more-demanding hikes. I particularly enjoyed the 'Cairns' walk, on the nearby Balmoral estate (see www.walkhighlands.co.uk) while my Monro-bagging friends had plenty to keep them happy. All in all, a great week in a great place, thanks to all concerned, I'd be very happy to return one day!

    The house is in a beautiful setting but is also incredibly convenient for being able to walk in to the shops and cafes/restaurants on Braemar.

    You feel very welcome and the house is well equipped, with all the touches of a home from home. A great information pack was provided prior to our visit and we found everything we needed and more! It is close to many Munro walks and a Corbett walk direct from the house. The views over the mountains are stunning and it is a very short walk to the river path which eventually leads to Braemar. The garden is beautiful and very well-kept with a lot of garden furniture in different areas if you want to sit outside. The conservatory was a favourite place of the whole family to gather as we all returned from whatever activity we did in the day. We loved the fact that the garden was deer proof so had no worries about the dog escaping and he had the run of the whole garden. In particular we enjoyed watching the birds and red squirrels flock around the feeders, we even saw a Tree Creeper from the conservatory. The downstairs bedroom with easy access en-suite shower room was a real boon for my mother. Beds were comfortable and rooms spacious. Overall a very enjoyable extended family holiday. Thank you!

    Drumrunie is a most attractive and comfortable house with a stunning garden in a very quiet location.

    We loved the fact that the garden was deer proof so had no worries about the dogs escaping and the children had plenty of toys to entertain themselves - and also couldn't escape! In particular we enjoyed feeding the birds and watching them flock around the feeders from the wonderful conservatory. A real bonus was the downstairs bedroom with fantastic en-suite shower room - perfect for the more elderly members of our family - and the nearby drawing room provided a welcome sanctuary for those who wanted some quiet time. Our family regularly rent a large house in Scotland and we feel that Drumrunie is probably the best house we have stayed in. On reading the Visitors Book we discovered that some relatives had stayed at the house on two occasions, quite a coincidence! We chose Drumrunie as we were looking for somewhere in the Aberdeen area which would accommodate our number of guests. We also liked the idea that it was within walking distance of the village of Braemar, which we subsequently found to be extremely friendly. We will be back!

    Our holiday was excellent and the house fantastic.

    We chose the house because we love Deeside and wanted to stay in Braemar. I then simply went on the LHH website as we have used them several times now and always been very pleased with what we have received. The arrival arrangements worked perfectly . The keys easily got, the house clean and tidy and everything presented well. Top marks for your housekeeping staff. There was more than enough equipment and everything we needed from day one was present. We love the garden. We are wildlife lovers so don't really like formal gardens, but yours was a great mix. Our children are all adults but had they been smaller then they would have loved the garden and we would have felt happy that it was so safe and secure for them. Over all we felt the house was the best we have had in the many years our families have spent on holiday together - about 18 years so 18 houses! Thankyou for the privilege of staying in your house.

    Wow, what a stunning house in an amazing setting.

    Comfortably slept 4 kids/4 adults and 2 dogs and we still had a room spare. The house was extremely well equipped and garden was big and secure so kids and dogs could pretty much roam free. It was also visited by red squirrels and plenty of bird life. The views of the Cairngorms are great and it's only a half mile from Braemar centre which has a well stocked co-op and plenty of tea/coffee shops and restaurants/bars as well as a microbrewery. We enjoyed many walks in the hills and along the rivers, it didn't seem to matter which direction you set off in there was always an interesting trek that even the kids enjoyed. We stayed for a week and I honestly wish we'd done longer. Could see us returning again as everyone had a great time.
