Upper Lochton

Scotland

Upper Lochton sits just outside Banchory in Royal Deeside, reached via the A93 from Aberdeen (30km) or the A980 from Alford. The settlement overlooks the Dee valley with views across Aberdeenshire farmland. Electric vehicle drivers will find around 14 fast charging points locally. The area's notable feature is Red Beard's Well, a historic spring that served travellers on the old drove roads.
