  • "We’ve stayed here 3 times and really like the accommodation."

    We will definitely stay there again. There are a few basic items missing that would make the stay even better, especially if you arrive from overseas or later in the evening. A hairdryer, paper towels, hand soap and coffee and tea.

  • "We have stayed here before and will defiantly stay again, fabulous place to base yourself, just a small issue that we had was only 2 wine classes, 3 small other glasses and some crockery was missing, not great when 4 people were staying, also an extra bin liner would have been nice."

    This was not a massive problem but we were a little surprised. Hopefully these things can be sorted out before our next trip? Other than that it was excellent and we will be back.

  • "We had a fantastic stay at the clock Tower in Keith, the facilities were excellent."

    The apartment was in top condition and just perfect. We will be back and will have no hesitation in staying again.

  • "Don't expect to get any sleep on a Friday or Saturday night."

    The noise from the street (drunks) is horrific which goes on and on thanks to the kebab shop next door. The single glazing in the bedrooms only makes it worse. Friday my wife and I were up till 1:30, Saturday is was 3am! Extremely disappointing for an apartment that is very nice, comfy and clean. To improve double glaze the windows, complain about your neighbors excessive business hours, replace the sofa (almost broke my tail bone after sitting between two seat cushions) and ideally install a dishwasher.

About the location

KEITH

Dufftown 11 miles; Aberdeen 49 miles; Inverness 55 miles

The small market town of Keith in the north east of Scotland is situated about mid way between the city of Aberdeen to the east and the city of Inverness to the west. Keith is truly in the heart of the Speyside Malt Whisky Country with its many distilleries and visitor centres. The friendly town boasts good facilities with a selection of shops, hotels and restaurants and also has its own 18 hole golf course and three tennis courts! Keith is home to the original Kilt School of Scotland, the only one of its kind where traditional kilt making skills can still be seen today. The area is not only rich in distilleries but also in castles and the ruins of Balvenie Castle near Dufftown are well worth a visit as the castle has hosted guests such as Mary Queen of Scots and Edward 1.
