The Kilmarnock Arms

Located only a 5 minute drive away from Slains Castle is The Kilmarnock Arms Hotel. It has been welcoming guests for over 120 years, and has even welcomed Bram Stoker during the time he was writing his book Dracula. You can find his signature in the hotels guest book dated back to 1894. The guest book is recently being restored by the Cruden Bay Community Association, but in its place they have a photocopied version where you can still see the famous entry. 

The Kilmarnock Arms also has a restaurant and bar where you can enjoy lunch or dinner prepared with the best seasonal & local ingredients.
