  • Alison

    Delightful garden which will be secluded in the summer when the shrubs are in leaf but not entirely dog proof for our escape artist hounds! Beach walks closeby are a huge plus. Short, easy drive to main shops in Fraserburgh. All in all would highly recommend.

  • Alan

    Perfect cottage for a relaxing time with the family and my 2 German shepherds who were not happy that we had to go home they totally loved this place and especially the beach this cottage has everything u need for a relaxing time Tesco and lidl 6 min drive enclosed garden also and a special mention to the owners who were on hand if we needed anything itching a problem to them we will definitely be back thank you so much

  • Alma Katrina

    The cottage was cosy with a nice enclosed garden keeping kids or pets safe. Tall people need to be wary of low door frames typical of the age of the property. The kitchen was well equipped bed was comfortable. A real home from home. There is no local food shop so be prepared to drive out, although there is a chippy/Ice cream shop. We saw seals on the coast and even saw fish in the rock pools.
