Aberdeenshire & Morayshire
This area stretches north and west from the ‘granite city’ of Aberdeen, up along the north sea coast, with its long stretches of sandy beach, to Fraserburgh, or ‘The Broch’ as it is locally known. You then turn the corner to find a string of charming fishing villages such as Pennan, Crovie, Cullen and Gardenstown and more superb beaches. Inland from Aberdeen there is a hugely scenic drive along the river Dee into the heart of Royal Deeside.

Plenty to Explore
There are many whisky distilleries in Speyside and Aberdeen, a bustling city with good transport connections with the rest of the UK, has a charming old university and a distinct architecture, many of the buildings being built from granite. Aberdeen is a convenient base for exploring the wider region.
The countryside to the north and west of Aberdeen is often unfairly overlooked as a holiday destination. It is actually full of interest, with attractive and peaceful countryside, beautiful gardens, good walking, cycling, fishing, golfing and on its edge some magnificent beaches.
There are many historic, archaeological and other attractions, the most famous being Balmoral, the Royal Family's holiday residence on Deeside. The area thus offers the visitor a wide variety of activities from which to choose.

"PLEASE LEAVE. WE DO NOT WANT YOU IN OUR BUG FREE VILLAGE" This message was left on our car on the night we arrived in the week before the Covid 19 lock down. . We tried to persevere and stay as we had booked an extended stay. However we were subjected to continuous abuse and intimidation throughout our stay. We eventually left before our booking finished, and Unique Cottages refused to refund us for the time we did not stay. I will never go to Ord or Skye again. | |

Lovely, well equipped and cosy cottage. Perfect for a get away from it all break. The two bedrooms are comfortable and airy. A great living room with stays toasty warm with the wood burning stove - we had it on almost the whole time. Great views down the valley towards the River Tay. A little bit of a shame that quite a lot of forestry work has gone on but still a beautiful vista. Forestry work limits some of the walks, but there’s still a good hike up the farm tracks. | |
