About Driving Instructors

A driving instructor teaches you to drive - from your first lesson through to passing your test, building confidence and safe habits behind the wheel.

A good local instructor who knows the test routes and the roads in your area gives you a real advantage on test day.

Check they hold a green ADI badge (not a pink trainee badge) and ask about pass rates - a reputable instructor will be happy to share theirs.

About Aboyne

Aboyne is a village on the south bank of the River Dee in upper Deeside, roughly thirty miles west of Aberdeen. It is centred on a large and handsome village green, around which the settlement was planned in the nineteenth century. The annual Aboyne Highland Games, held on the green each August, are among the most respected in Scotland.

The village has a good range of amenities for its size, including a primary school, a secondary school serving the wider mid-Deeside area, shops, a medical practice and a golf course. Aboyne Loch is a popular spot for water sports and birdwatching.

Housing in Aboyne includes traditional granite cottages, Victorian villas and modern family homes. The village attracts residents who value the quality of life offered by its rural Deeside setting while still needing reasonable access to Aberdeen.

About Aberdeenshire

(opens in new tab)

Aberdeenshire is one of the largest council areas in Scotland, wrapping around the city of Aberdeen in a broad arc that stretches from the Cairngorms in the west to the North Sea coast in the east and from the Angus border in the south to the Moray Firth in the north.

The region is extraordinarily varied: Royal Deeside - the valley of the River Dee running west from Aberdeen through Banchory, Aboyne, Ballater and Braemar - is one of Scotland's most celebrated landscapes, closely associated with the royal family through Balmoral Castle. The Donside valley to the north offers a quieter, equally attractive alternative.

The north-east coast has a distinctive character shaped by centuries of fishing, with harbours at Peterhead, Fraserburgh, Macduff and a string of smaller ports that once landed vast quantities of herring and white fish. Peterhead remains one of the busiest fishing ports in Europe and the coastal towns retain a strong working identity.

Inland, the rolling farmland of Buchan, the Garioch and the Mearns supports a productive agricultural economy. Market towns like Inverurie, Ellon, Huntly and Turriff serve as local centres for their surrounding districts and many have grown significantly as commuter settlements for Aberdeen.

The North Sea oil and gas industry transformed the region's economy from the 1970s onward, bringing prosperity and population growth to towns within commuting distance of Aberdeen. That legacy continues in the energy transition, with Aberdeenshire positioning itself at the centre of Scotland's renewable energy future.
