Quiet, very clean and cosy warm. Had everything we needed for our holiday. Enjoyed the welcome pack of home made bread and jam. Excellent area to explore and stunning views from the garden looking out towards Buckie and the sea. Definitely will return for another holiday.

Plenty of room, clean and very well equipped. Lovely owner who left goodies including home made bread and husband who came to our aid with car issue. Unexpected view of sea in distance. A quiet, top of hill venue. Only wish we still had the dog to enjoy the break with us.

All aspects of the cottage are high quality from the comfy sofas to the kitchen equipment. With the shower room and bathroom being of equal quality this is ideal option for a family of 4 or two couples. Excellent generous parking area close to entrance porch and a garden with wonderful long distance views to the sea we had a special holiday here.
