The Fife Arms
Braemar, Aberdeenshire 5.78 miles
Swiss gallerists Iwan and Manuela Wirth have had a Highland fling at this 19th-century coaching inn, where you can sip cocktails in a bar inspired by Elsa Schiaparelli, eat pub grub in the Flying Stag, opt for fine dining under the chandeliers in the restaurant, sleep in a suite adorned with Victoriana, relax under a Picasso, and gaze at Bruegel over your breakfast porridge.

Douneside House
Tarland, Aberdeenshire 16.86 miles
Eligible military guests receive a discount at this Edwardian gem of a Scottish revival country house in beautifully maintained gardens, owned by a charitable trust and filled with family mementoes, where bedrooms blend classic and contemporary style and tasting menus feature produce from the walled kitchen garden.
