The property was extremely comfortable and immaculately clean. Theresa our host was so friendly and made sure our stay was enjoyable. She even let us bring in a Chinese takeaway and eat it in her dining room which was over and above anything we would have expected. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the bed extremely comfortable. Toiletries were provided and there was also a nice choice of tea and coffee with kettle, coffee machine and fridge provided. There was even a wee dram of whisky waiting for us. The breakfast was the best we’ve ever had in a B&B with the best of produce including homemade jams. We enjoyed our stay so much and would not hesitate to visit again and would definitely recommend to others. Thank you again Theresa

I have stayed in the Mash Tun on numerous occasions and always have enjoyed my stay, due to the friendliness of staff etc. and the excellent food and room comfort.
However on this recent visit, the only positive was the room comfort.
Set in the small, quiet village of Craigellachie, the Highlander Inn offers a restaurant, free WiFi access and free parking.

There is only 1 Bar in Dufftown and it’s basic but has a dart board but that’s your lot.now as others lost business to Covid. There’s an Indian which is average and take away which is basic. Advise to book places to eat in Aberlour to avoid disappointment. Whisky tours only accept online bookings.

The people were friendly.
The people were friendly. Unfortunately the tourist information office had been shut down. There were plenty of distilleries nearby if you had a car. There were good walking tracts if you had a medium level of fitness. There is only one pub as far as I know but I would recommend the restaurant as the food which was excellent.

Charming little town in the heart of whisky country!
Charming little town in the heart of whisky country! Glenfiddich Distillery with its excellent visitor facilities situated in the town and several other distilleries open to view in the locality. An interesting ruin, Balvenie Castle, to explore on the outskirts of the town. Dufftown also boasts its own heritage railway which is definitely worth a visit. Beautiful walks and lovely scenery around the town.

Only a few restaurants in and around town make sure you reserve ahead. If you plan on going to the distillery's or the Speyside cooperage also make sure you book ahead. Dufftown golf course is public and is nearby and will rent you decent clubs. Great course. ACE taxis if you had too much good Whisky.

We stayed for 8 nights during the Spirit of Speyside Whisky...
We stayed for 8 nights during the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival and the location was pretty central for many of the events. Lots of lovely places to visit during the day in the surrounding area.
Loved the Dufftown Glassworks, a little coffeeshop come art gallery, and the Seven Stills restaurant was extremely good for a special meal.
There are only three places left in Dufftown serving hot food in the evening - even the local chippie has closed down. The only cafe, The Coffee Pot, opens at 9am (10am at the weekend), which was too late for us for breakfast, and closes at 3pm, so we didn't use it during our visit. Everything else has closed down and there are no signs of any other businesses moving in to take their place. The only other option for an evening meal is to go further afield, and the buses stop running very early evening, so you have to either drive or take a cab. We were there for the whisky festival, so driving was obviously out of the question, and the taxi cabs were totally booked up (because it was the whisky festival...). We were fortunate that we had cooking facilities at our accommodation and could make do.
Pretty disappointed with the public transport. I believe that they put on extra services in previous years for the festival, but not this year. Even one single late bus would have been useful - on the biggest week of the year for tourism the last bus leaving Elgin for Dufftown was 6.35pm!

The town is beautiful and clean, but we couldn’t find a restaurant which was open at around 14:30 on a Tuesday after we finished our whiskey tour. None of the nearby castles were open. I’d avoid being there on a Monday or Tuesday as most restaurants only open on Wednesdays.
The location of the cottage is great - right out of Dufftown in the center of main highlands' distilleries with easy excess to all of them (theoretically), so in case if you want some activities you can easily reach the town and in case if you just want to have your own time in calm surrounding you can stay in and around cottage. Cottage has a nice small fireplace and one basket of logs offered free of charge.
Andy & Laura have gone above and beyond to create such a beautiful, welcoming and special space. The furnishings and design are exquisite. I wish we had stayed longer!
Breakfast was delicious and thoughtfully prepared.
Quiet town, but the location was perfect for exploring the distilleries in Speyside. There was a great Indian restaurant around the corner.
Very comfortable and clean house almost in the heart of Dufftown. Everything is new and perfectly equipped. Communication with the owners was perfect. There were two of us, but the house will be comfortable for four thanks to the large dining room and living room. The photos fully correspond.
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel really welcome. Host is very friendly. Loved the b&b facility and the small fridge in the accommodation was very useful. We would book again if in the area and happily recommend to others. Very good location if you’re doing the whisky trail.
A delightful B&B in Dufftown. Kira and Tom are excellent hosts and have created a lovely guesthouse. This is an excellent place from which to explore the distilleries and everything this area has to offer. I would recommend it to anyone.
We were blown away upon arrival. Spacious, clean, great amenities, location. We are honestly thinking of a return to Speyside and staying here for a number of days, making this our basis of operation.
Hotel, restaurant and hotel pub was a highlight of staying in Dufftown. Staff and locals were very friendly. Pretty much one of a handful of businesses open while I was there for one day & night.
Welcoming, clean, very comfortable bed, tastefully decorated, great breakfast with plenty of choice, easy parking on the street and right in the middle of Dufftown, the whisky capital of Scotland.
The whole house was fantastic and seemed a perfect location for a little vacation in the Speyside region. Walking distance to Dufftown. The hot tub worked perfect and we'd love to stay here again.
We came up for Dufftown Games, location was fantastic, apartment was clean & tidy. Could do with labels on immersion heaters in kitchen as it was day 2 before we had hot water from the taps!!
Excellent breakfast, perfect location, superb owners. We feel very lucky to have found Gowanbrae for our stay in Dufftown. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing trip to the area.
Lovely period property, walking distance to everywhere in Dufftown. Spotlessly clean. Fantastic breakfast & selection. Friendly & helpful host Linda made us feel very welcome.
