1 / 24The Mill Of Ballintomb
Carron, Moray
A converted mill for eleven near Archiestown where every bedroom is en suite, with an open fire, the old mill stream in the fenced garden and two dogs welcome.
Every bedroom at The Mill of Ballintomb has its own bathroom, which for a house sleeping eleven is the detail that saves the holiday. The mill is the charm: a dog friendly Speyside conversion near Archiestown with the original millstone still in the lounge, an open fire beside it, and a fenced garden with the old mill stream running through, two dogs welcome.
The lounge runs two seating areas around that fire, the kitchen and dining space seats a full gathering, and the bedrooms spread over two upper floors, super kings to twins to an attic hideaway with its own bath that children will fight over. A four oven range cooker, two fridges and two freezers say the house expects proper catering, dogs underfoot included.
The dog terms are clear and kindly meant: dogs keep to the ground floor, and the house provides a dog bed by way of welcome. The garden is the compensation, rambling and fenced, with the stream that once turned the wheel still moving through it, and sledges in the games cupboard, optimistically.
Archiestown and its square are a woodland mile away, the Speyside Way begins at about the same remove, follow the river, and the whisky country unrolls from Craigellachie to Aberlour beyond. Eleven people will find the week fills itself; the dogs only need the stream explained to them once.

Is The Mill Of Ballintomb dog friendly?
Yes, The Mill of Ballintomb welcomes up to two dogs. The house provides a dog bed as a welcome touch, and the rambling fenced garden — with the old mill stream running through it — gives dogs plenty to explore.
Are dogs allowed at The Mill Of Ballintomb year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's worth contacting the property directly to confirm availability for your dates. Given the garden comes with sledges in the games cupboard, it's clear the house is set up for visits across the seasons.
What should I know before visiting The Mill Of Ballintomb with my dog?
Dogs are welcome but kept to the ground floor — the upper bedroom floors are off limits for them.
