Luxury Lodges on the Stonehaven Coast

Sea Views, Coastal Calm & a unique Fairway Setting

Dalriada Lodges is a collection of eight luxury self‑catering lodges, set between the 9th green and 10th tee of Stonehaven Golf Club, with sweeping views across Stonehaven Bay and towards Dunnottar Castle. The coastal setting is peaceful, scenic, and perfectly placed for exploring Aberdeenshire, with the added bonus of the golf course right beside the lodges for those who want to play.

Purpose‑built for comfort and convenience, Dalriada appeals to couples, families, walkers, cyclists, golfers, and anyone seeking a relaxed coastal escape.

How Many Lodges & How Many They Sleep

Dalriada consists of eight individual luxury lodges, all designed to the same high standard.

  • 8 lodges in total

  • Each lodge sleeps up to 4 guests

  • Two double bedrooms, each with its own en‑suite bathroom

  • Beds can be arranged as super‑king or twin, offering flexibility for families or groups

  • All lodges are on one level, making access easy and practical

Inside the Lodges

Each lodge is designed with comfort and longer stays in mind:

  • Open‑plan living, dining and kitchen area with large windows facing the sea

  • Fully equipped modern kitchen with dishwasher, washer/dryer, induction hob, large fridge/freezer and microwave

  • Comfortable lounge seating and smart TV

  • Private decked area with outdoor furniture - perfect for sunsets over the coast

  • Lockable external kit house for golf clubs, bikes or outdoor gear

Everything is set up to make your stay effortless

Pet-Friendly Stays

Six of the eight lodges are dog‑friendly, with two kept pet‑free for guests with allergies.

  • Well‑behaved dogs welcome

  • Excellent coastal walks and green space nearby

Sustainability

Dalriada is committed to thoughtful, low‑impact hospitality. Each lodge has its own EV charger and a sedum eco‑roof, and the buildings are designed with high‑insulation materials, air filtration system and LED lighting to reduce energy use. Eco‑friendly toiletries and cleaning products are used throughout, and guests will find recycling facilities and locally sourced touches wherever possible.

Location: Stonehaven & Aberdeenshire Coast

The lodges sit above Stonehaven Harbour and beside the golf course, placing guests close to:

  • Stonehaven town centre - cafés, pubs, bakeries and seafood spots

  • Dunnottar Castle

  • Scenic coastal walking routes and beaches

Dalriada is also a fantastic base for exploring the wider region:
20 minutes to Aberdeen, 30 minutes to Banchory, 30 minutes to Angus.

Who Dalriada Lodges Are Perfect For

  • Couples seeking coastal calm and scenic walks

  • Families wanting space, comfort and sea views

  • Golfers looking for accommodation beside the course

  • Small groups planning short breaks

  • Cyclists exploring local routes

  • Guests wanting luxury lodges with easy access to town

Why Dalriada Lodges Stand Out

  • Eight luxury lodges with panoramic sea views

  • Unique setting beside the 9th green and 10th tee

  • Flexible sleeping arrangements

  • Pet‑friendly options

  • EV chargers for every lodge

  • Exterior storage for bikes and golf clubs
