Inn and steading, in use as a hotel, built in the late 18th century with later additions, and is named 'Aberdeen Hotel' on the 2nd edition OS map. It is a 2-storey, 3-bay, rectangular-plan inn, with a symmetrical main elevation and twin 2-storey, 3-bay wings to the rear. The building is constructed from squared and snecked yellow sandstone that is harled to the sides, and has a grey slate roof with lead flashing, coped skews with scrolled skew putts and coped gable stacks. Forming a courtyard to the rear is the single-storey, five-bay, rectangular-plan, gabled steading. The principal west elevation is broad and symmetrical with regular fenestration, a two-leaf timber panelled door to the centre and a plain slightly projecting margin framing the entrance. The rear east elevation has the twin gable ends of rear wings obscured by later flat-roofed additions to the ground floor. The north gable end has a single-storey pavilion wing with a piended roof. The south elevation has the gable end of the main building to the west, the two-storey, three-bay symmetrical house front with a door to the centre abutting to the east forming a bar entrance of the rear wing. To the outer east is a single-storey later addition to outer right. The interior retains its original layout. The steading to the rear has irregular fenestration with a gabled goods door breaking the eaves to and a corrugated iron addition. The gable ends terminate in ball finials. The inn has similar scrolled skewputts to the old parish church (NJ40SE0012) and nearby Tillychardoch House (NJ50NW0084), suggesting the work of the same masons.
