Great, well equipped cottage with a lovely garden and scenery near Portsoy. We used this as a base to explore the north east coastline. Owners very friendly and helpful. We hope to return some time in the future as we really enjoyed our stay here.

We had a wonderful week here. We used it as a base for exploring the area, which we did from Loch Ness to Fraserburgh! Absolutely stunning cottage with beautiful garden for our dog to explore. The owners were very welcoming, and we hope to be able to go back one day. Thank you
