This is a real treat place. Very high class hotel in Braemar. Owned by a Swiss art dealing couple so you can have afternoon tea under a Picasso and there’s a Lucien Freud in the lobby. Worth a visit for the art alone.

Over 20 tows and lifts - if the snow is here and the roads open, there is some (perhaps surprisingly) great ski-ing to be had just 45 minutes north of Rosebank.
