Large warm bedroom with very comfy bed and stylish decor; big powerful shower. Food, service and staff all top class. Loved my stay as did my dog!

Stopped here for food, service was good, very accommodating as we arrived earlier than our booking. Sat us with no issues. Food was good although I found the portions a little small. Perhaps we were just very hungry after a long day out hiking.

Very welcoming. Kids meals are great value and not too hot. They brought it out early for the 2 hungry kids. The adult burgers were huge and very tasty. ThanksFood & drinks: Excellent value for money for the kids menu and huge portions. Kids loved it. Burgers were huge and very tasty.

We ordered the crispy duck starter which was delicious as a light lunch, the cream of tomato soup and bread is also very satisfying as well as roasted venison and vegetables. They have a bar and restaurant in a nicer pub setting. Service was friendly and quick. Good prices.

We have been going to "The Boat Inn" for 13 years now and it never disappoints.
You really can't get a better place to stay than this! We stayed in Room 1 which seemed to have been recently renovated. The bathroom had a double sink and double shower... Luckily, no double toilet!The king bed was comfortable and cosy. It was great to have french press coffee in the room for the morning.The included breakfast was great and had a good choice that would keep anyone happy.

The location was near where we were staying in easy reach, the food was good . We were welcomed with a smile and friendliness but unfortunately we felt like we were forgotten about, slow service and on our second visit we were waiting for our main course more than 25 minutes and I had to ask what was taking so long...little bit disappointed ?

We live about 25 minutes away from Aboyne and have been to the Boat a number of times for Breakfast and Lunch. The food is always excellent and the staff are always friendly and helpful. Our dogs love the treat tin also!I wish we had somewhere like the Boat in our village.
