About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cottage to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

3 bedroom cottage, with far reaching views of the garden and open countryside.

** April to October - Saturday to Saturday bookings accepted only, unless prior approved with owners **

This truly is a hidden corner of Scotland where the pace of life is slow, air refreshing and food delicious, with a good nights sleep assured, these historic self-catering cottages make for the perfect holiday recipe.

Garden Cottage is suitable for disabled access with one step in at the front and back entrance, all rooms are on one level, however the shower is over the bath.
During the colder months guests can enjoy the added benefit of a wonderful woodburning stove.

Each self-catering cottage has central heating and double glazing with wood burning stoves. The well-tended grounds and gardens are superb with wonderful views over the valley and ample private parking surrounded by mature trees. The setting is rural yet 1 mile inland from the quaint traditional Scottish fishing village of Whitehills and 3 miles from Banff, a town with some of Scotland's finest examples of 16th and 17th century architecture, which includes Duff House built in 1743 by Robert Adams and now an outstation of The National Galleries of Scotland.

The garden and surrounding area was a much needed tonic - and kept the youngsters off their screens a lot!! The property is simple but very nicely presented and had everything we needed. We felt welcome by the hosts and will definitely book to stay there again.

So peaceful!
We absolutely loved our stay in garden cottage, so many extra details thought of within the cottage facilities, fantastic tips from the owners on the local area, beautiful views all around with the most beautiful countryside and sea views within just a short walk. Great tea rooms next door and our children felt incredibly free and safe playing in the garden.

Beautiful house in such a beautiful area
Everything about this house and the stay we had was perfect. From the moment we were kindly welcomed by Tracey and Ramsey, to the cleanliness of the house, the comfort of all of the beds to the beautiful big garden that our children loved running around from dawn till dusk. The area the house is located in is perfect with many stunning and accessible beaches a short drive away. Thank you for our stay we all enjoyed it very much and hope one day to return.

A perfect getaway!
A beautiful cottage located in a rural setting but only a short drive to Banff and within easy walking distance down a country lane to Whitehills. The best thing about this property is the large well maintained walled garden. Our dog had the time of his life! We had a couple small issues with the WiFi and TV but they were sorted very promptly by the owners who live right next door. Ramsay and Tracy were wonderful attentive hosts.

Absolutely perfect trip
Simply cannot fault the cottage or hosts. We were made to feel so incredibly welcome by Tracey and Ramsey from arrival who were extraordinarily kind and generous. The cottage and grounds are impeccably maintained and there are an abundance of great walks just on the doorstep. We will for sure be back as soon as we can and would highly recommend a visit to anyone.
