Description
St Kilda is a charming cottage set in Ballater, Aberdeenshire, offering roadside parking, countryside views, and an enclosed multi-level garden that makes the most of its scenic surroundings.
Well-suited to families or groups of friends, this inviting retreat combines flexible accommodation with spaces designed for gathering together after days spent exploring the Cairngorms.
Step inside, and the open-plan living space creates a natural focal point, where the kitchen, dining area, and sitting space flow together.
The woodburning stove adds character to evenings in, while the Smart TV offers a simple way to wind down after a day outdoors.
The kitchen is arranged for easy mealtimes, whether preparing breakfast before heading out or sharing an evening meal at the dining table.
The ground-floor king-size bedroom provides a practical and private option, complete with its own en-suite bathroom featuring a bath with a shower over.
Upstairs, a double bedroom and a twin room offer further flexibility, making the cottage suited to a range of group arrangements.
A separate shower room ensures mornings run smoothly, with space for everyone to prepare for the day ahead.
Outside, the enclosed garden with patio and lawn provides room to sit, dine, or simply take in the surrounding views.
In Ballater, discover the charm of this well-known Royal Deeside village, with attractions such as the Ballater Railway Station Visitor Centre and nearby Balmoral Castle, set within expansive grounds.
Venture into the Cairngorms National Park for walking routes, wildlife spotting, and dramatic scenery, or explore Braemar, home to Braemar Castle and the Highland Games Centre.
In nearby Aboyne, visit the Deeside Activity Park for outdoor pursuits or enjoy walks around Loch of Aboyne.
For days filled with discovery and scenery, St Kilda offers a delightful base in Aberdeenshire.

What guests are saying
A little gem of a cottage.
Perfectly placed in the centre of Ballater with walks / shops and cafes right on the doorstep. We also took trips to Balmoral / Braemar which are easy travelling distance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will certainly return . We would add that the 'on road' parking was not a problem and there was always plenty of space. Thanks indeed to Susan ( the owner ) for making us feel so welcome.
We had a lovely stay at St Kilda!
The location in Ballater was perfect, just a short walk to the Co-op and cafés/restaurants. Street parking was always easy and convenient. The cottage was spotless, comfortable and so relaxing. We especially loved the wood-burning stove, which made the evenings extra cosy, and the beautiful garden was a bonus. Would happily stay again! Was a perfect getaway!
Lovely cottage, excellent facilities, everything you need is provided for you and the woodburning stove is brilliant.
Great location for both local and wider areas you may wish to visit.
