Guest Reviews

There is an indefinable quality about this part of the world that our guests notice as soon as they arrive, and that brings them back to the Udny Arms Hotel time and again. Some say this is thanks to our warm welcome, and convivial atmosphere. Others sing the praises of our famous cuisine, and the way we make guests feel as if they are visiting old friends. Flattered as we are, more than a little credit for this unique atmosphere must go to the calming influence of the River Ythan, the changing moods of the Forvie estuary, and the joy of sharing it all with eider duck and geese. Whatever the reason, and whatever the season, it seems folk simply can't help but relax here, and for nigh on one hundred years they have been coming to do just that.

Or why not participate in some of the open events in the local highland Games taking place throughout the month of August, culminating in the Royal Highland Games at Braemar on the first Saturday in September. Robin Williams, friend of Billy Connolly, put on a creditable performance in 1999 at the Lonach Games in Strathdon, running in the Hill Race. The village lies below the immense backdrop of the Coyles of Muick and Lochnagar. The air, perfumed by scented pine forest, is so clear and fresh that it is almost intoxicating - and at night the sky is lit by more stars than a man could count in a long lifetime. Long warm days in the summer - crisp clean days, perfect for walking or skiing, in the winter.
