The Lower Dess estate lies in Royal Deeside on the north side of the river Dee with uninterrupted views over the valley to the Forest of Birse. The estate enjoys a very private and secluded position in a totally unspoilt rural setting and yet is close to Aberdeen. Perfect for groups of friends or family, special celebrations, small gatherings and weddings for up to twenty people.

Small Celebrations & Gatherings
Lower Dess Estate is the perfect Exclusive Use venue for small and unique celebrations in the Aberdeenshire countryside.
With accommodation at Mill of Dess Lodge for up to 20 overnight guests, there’s plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
I have stayed in many Scottish lodges (and country hotels in Scotland) over the years. Dess has to be the best thought out and most comfortable of them all. A triumph!
Thank you for a most wonderful stay. Great food, great welcome and lovely to be looked after so well.
A wonderfully relaxing stay in great comfort. The food and hospitality were excellent, we can't wait to return.
