Needle Cottage is a delightful cottage set amidst the lovely conservation area of Seatown. A traditional former fisherman’s residence, it has charm, character and a perfect coastal setting, with plenty of space to suit couples, families, or a small walking party. To the ground floor there is a main sitting room, an additional snug room to the rear, dining room and kitchen. On the first floor there is a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, both of which enjoy views over to the magnificent viaduct, and they share the family bathroom which has a sea view. The cottage benefits from an outbuilding to the rear which houses a washing machine, tumble dryer and space for bike or sports equipment storage. There is a south-facing seating area at the front of cottage, which is sheltered and gets the sun most of the day.

Just less than a minute’s walk is Cullen Beach, a wide expanse of golden sand which sits behind the large rocks named the ‘Three Kings’. The beach lies in front of Cullen Golf Course and there are plenty of coastal walks and trails to follow. Cullen Bay is well sheltered by the surrounding cliffs and moray dolphins are often spotted from the beach and bay. Take a wander around Seatown and the brightly coloured cottages - a delightful, irregular clutter of homes built gable-end to the sea and with colourful painted pointing between the bricks. Explore the dramatic landscapes, cycle along the Moray Coast Cycle Trail which runs from Cullen to Burghead. Golf enthusiasts have a lovely links course practically on the doorstep, which has stunning views over the bay. Be sure to try the local dishes including Cullen skink, a hearty chowder-like fish soup. The clear waters here are the base for a resident colony of bottlenose dolphins, and there are several companies in the vicinity running wildlife cruises, when you could also spot seals, many seabirds and even whales. Cullen is a wonderful little village, a real treasure trove of cute shops and cafés, and a perfect place to spend some time.
