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

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.

|
Absolutely brilliant, the cottage we originally booked was taken off the market and they swapped us to an even better one with no extra charge. They kept us informed at all stages of the booking right through to the return of our deposit at the end. | |

The welcome with the flowers and wine..the caretaker was so welcoming even in these uncertain times. The cottage its self was so brilliant and words can't really reflect how wonderful the whole experience was...such a bright note in an otherwise very grim year. | |

We have stayed here before and would happily stay there again. It was very clean and logs were provided for log burner (which was well used by us). Great garden for our dog too. Everything we needed for our stay was provided. | |

No problems - easy process | |
| 22-Nov-2020 | Swan Cottage DR4 (overall) |
|
The service was good as usual. The only improvement would be the time frame from when a booking is placed and confirmed (I realise they need to check with the owners, but at times it can take a few days). | |
