We had a very enjoyable 3-night stay at Tangley House (despite rather mixed weather in the area). The location on the outskirts of Ballater is a pretty good base to explore the local area in and around the Cairngorms NP, though travel times around the region can be impacted by the twisty roads and occassional closures due to maintenance.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I am delighted that you enjoyed your stay. The closure of the Gairnshiel Bridge did have a bit of an impact on those travelling around the area but I am delighted to say that it is now fixed and open again. Although the vast majority of our guests prefer having... More

Brenda is a fabulous host, she could not do enough for us. The house is lovely, well appointed and breakfast was superb. We could not fault anything about our two night stay and would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Scotland. Ballater is truly a beautiful part of Scotland. We were also delighted to experience snow falling which added to... More

If you are planning a visit to Ballater you will not want to miss out on a stay at Tangley House. My husband and I spent a weekend at this lovely B&B. It truly is a beautiful and immaculate house.

Father and son sharing the twin room, we were highly delighted with all aspects of our all too short stay between Christmas and Hogmanay. A warm welcome, friendly assistance from the proprietors, Immaculate high-spec rooms, a wide range of delicious food and, essentially, comfortable beds. Everything you hope for in a small, family-run Scottish B&B, but do not always find... More

We stayed a couple of nights at Tangley House at beginning of October and couldn't have had a more pleasant experience. We arrived with wet gear after playing golf at the local course and everything was taken away for drying. Our room was spacious, clean, comfortable and warm and the breakfast was one of the best we've ever had -... More

We stayed here in April and it has been one of my favourite B&B's as the host, room and breakfast were all truly excellent. The owner had never done this type of business before and it was the start of her first season. I can reassure anybody who is visiting this area to stay here as you shall not find... More
