My favorite place that I have visited so far is Stonehaven. It is a nice fishing town that can be reached by a 20 min train ride from Aberdeen. The main attraction is Dunnotar Castle, which sits on the cliffs at the edge of the town. It is a long walk from the train station to the castle, and from the castle back to town, so good walking shoes are a must! The views are beautiful and unmatched anywhere closer. I would also recommend walking the trail from the castle into town along the ocean. It leads you to a fantastic fish and chip shop, and the most amazing ice cream shop next door. For anyone going to Aberdeen, you absolutely must go here!
