Knowing which car hire companies offer the best value for money can be difficult — that’s why we show ratings and reviews from previous customers next to each listing. We ask customers to rate the supplier in seven key areas, including the condition of the car and the speed of pick-up and drop-off. We are impartial, and we want you to have the best rental experience possible. If you want to avoid hidden fuel charges, we recommend choosing a car with a full-to-full fuel policy (just refill the tank before dropping the car off and you won’t pay any extra fuel fees).

Craigievar Castle: Owned by the National Trust for Scotland, Craigievar Castle is a fairy-tale-like, baronial castle. One of the best preserved castles in Scotland, this 17th-century structure has a fine collection of Jacobean woodwork, family portraits and beautiful furniture. Surrounding the castle are landscaped grounds that include a Victorian kitchen garden and a Scottish glen garden.

Cairngorms National Park: The Cairngorms National Park is a haven for those who love the outdoors. You can hike, mountain bike, ski or snowboard in this wild landscape. Walkers will enjoy ‘bagging a Munro’ (climbing a peak that’s more than 3000 feet tall) on the high Cairngorm plateau, families can have a go at dog-sledding at the Cairngorm Sleddog Centre and in winter you can try your hand at snow sports at one of the three ski areas.

Balmedie Country Park: Located in the town of Balmedie, just over a 20-minute drive from Aberdeen, the Balmedie Country Park boasts a long, windswept sandy beach — with a beautiful dune system that stretches for 14 miles. Look out for World War Two pill boxes on your way back to the car park, where there is also a good children’s playground. The beach is home to a number of barbecue fire stands.
