Castleview is all that you could ask and wish for from a B&B, and in fact, it doesn't feel like a B&B at all, but more like a home away from home. Betty and Ian are wonderful people, great cooks and amazing hosts, and made our stay truly memorable. Kasia and Robin More

We were travelling through Scotland from Australia and we stayed at Castleview in August - pity only for one night. From the beginning service was a first class. I found the place on TripAdvisor and when I send an email I got email back from Ian very quickly. On arriving Ian was very friendly and helpful. He showed us around... More

We were warmly greeted by Ian and Bow (one of the lovely tuxedo cats in residence), who showed us to our room and directed us to the Highlander Inn, which, incidentally, had wonderful food (grilled veggies, local goat cheese and couscous with a balsamic syrup...

Our 3 night stay at Castleview was a highlight of our first visit to Scotland. Excellent rooms, breakfasts and a dinner unequaled. The dinner was topped off with a Glenfiddich tasting. Ian and Betty are warm, welcoming and charming hosts. When we come back to Scotland, Dufftown and Castleview will be tops on our list of not to be missed... More

The last thing we expected when we stayed here was the fantastic dinner Ian cooked for us. He had gone fishing and caught a salmon and then by our request bought some venison and made a fantastic dinner. Breakfast was always hearty, healthy and ample. He helped us decide what local sights were worth visiting. Our room was upstairs and... More
