Shines Like Silver

Shines Like Silver: Aberdeen City and Shire

Plush in every sense of the word, this apartment is all smooth finishes and lavish style. Whether you're lounging on the soft suede sofa with a glass of scotch, tucking into dinner around the six-seater dining table or cooking up a storm in the glossy kitchen, you'll feel right at home in this contemporary pad. Sumptuous bedrooms, sleek bathrooms, a study for at-home working – it's got it all. Our favourite part is the balcony, where you can savour a morning coffee or catch the last of the evening sun while admiring the view over the wooded grounds.

And speaking of grounds, this apartment is set in a gated complex in the small village of Cults, just a fifteen-minute drive from central Aberdeen. Peaceful and petite, we love how quiet this spot is, yet it's just a stone's throw from gourmet restaurants, lively pubs and boutique shops in the city. When you're not out and about in Aberdeen, try the delicious treats at the 100-year old bakery in the village, play a round of golf at the nearby course or treat yourself to a day at the award-winning spa nearby.
