Raemoir House Hotel, is
a beautiful, privately owned and
run Scottish country house hotel close to Aberdeen,
in the glorious landscape of Royal Deeside. The
Georgian mansion house sits in wide parkland,
a mile to the north of Banchory in easy reach
of all the famous Victorian Aberdeenshire tourist
attractions.
The main house, was built in 1817 but extensively
developed in the Victorian age, when Balmoral
was first becoming known as the favourite retreat
of the Royal Family. It is still popular with
them today. HRH
Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall
and Rothsay regularly
escape the limelight to enjoy the fresh air
and countryside of Aberdeenshire. Raemoir
House
is constructed from the traditional and typical
Aberdeenshire granite that is so famously bright
in the sunlight that Aberdeen is known as the
silver city. (The Area)
Additional to the 14
bedrooms in the main house,
there are a further 6 located in the even older building
known as the Ha’ Hoose. This grade 1
listed building dates to 1715. This name derives
from the term Hall House, it was in fact the main Raemoir
house until the larger one was built directly
in front of it 100 years later - before the days
of planning permission.
The tree lined drive opens out to reveal 10
acres of lawn and parkland, making the
hotel an ideal retreat for guests holidaying
with dogs.
We welcome well behaved dogs at Raemoir and only
exclude them from the dining areas.
A permanent white ‘H’ is also clearly
marked on the lawn to guide private helicopters in to land.
With Aberdeen having the busiest civilian heliport
in the world, this is well used and always exciting
to see.
If you are interested in using this beautiful
building with its majestic rooms for a
private
event, be it corporate or
personal, you will find it very adaptable to
most requirements. Numbers are generally best
kept under 60 as this suits the rooms and the
ground floor layout, but there are
further possibilities if the front lawn is
considered as well.
