Scardroy Aberdeen Aberdeen

Scardroy Aberdeen is an apartment in the middle of the city centre. It's part of the old main post office building, converted into flats. This one was the show flat when they were selling them off. You can use the gym and sauna in the building if you want.

It's for four people, but it's one bedroom and one bathroom. There's a proper double bed in the bedroom and a double sofa bed in the living room for the other two. The kitchen's got everything you'd need. There's a shower in the bathroom. You get a private parking space, which is useful.

Location is the main thing. You're about five minutes from the train station and Union Square. The Music Hall on Union Street is literally round the corner. All the shops, cafes, and restaurants are right there. You can walk to everything.

The beach is about a twenty-five minute walk. It's a long, sandy beach. There's Codona's amusement park there if you've got kids. The old part of the city, with the cobbled streets and older buildings, is worth a walk around too.

If you drive out, you're in the countryside in no time. The Cairngorms National Park is under an hour away for walking. Royal Deeside and Balmoral are about the same. Castle Fraser is about half an hour west.

For facilities: it's got WiFi, a TV, a washing machine, and a dishwasher. Bedding and towels are included. No pets allowed.
