Built over 100 years ago, the cottage offers charm and character. In 2018, it was sympathetically renovated by an award-winning architect to incorporate modern day facilities, creating a warm and cosy coastal retreat. Two double bedrooms upstairs in the property offer accommodation for 4 guests, with one double bed, and one small double bed, and ample storage. The master bedroom offers fantastic views across the waterfront to the beach. A full height walk-in shower is located in the bathroom. A modern and fully fitted kitchen provides space for cooking, with a dining area to relax and enjoy your locally sourced cuisine. The inviting and comfortable living area includes a wood burning stove. There is something special about lighting the fire and enjoying the cosy surroundings on a crisp winter’s day, or as the waves crash on the shoreline outside. WiFi and a television ensure you remain connected to the world, but just feet from the cottage is the Moray Firth Coast, which offers an outdoor escape across sandy beaches and rugged headlands, abundant with wildlife including dolphins, seals, whales and an array of birdlife. Should you need a little more space for your coastal getaway, we do have another property in the village, High Green Hall, which sleeps 8 guests across 4 bedrooms, making it ideal for get togethers with extended family or groups of friends. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - No lift - Smoke-free property ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Marina](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116230000/116222300/116222244/c60829ce.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Rosehearty house - 3 bedroom Rosehearty - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-16&endDate=2025-10-17&selected=116222244&PinnedHotelID=116222244&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Miscellaneous](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/37000000/36180000/36176000/36175923/d3ee5c6c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Acdc Glamping, Campervan , Caravan and Tent Resort Fraserburgh - Washer - Parking included - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 14 reviews £94 includes taxes & fees 9 Oct - 10 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-09&endDate=2025-10-10&selected=36175923&PinnedHotelID=36175923&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 5:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds This property does not allow children ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Beautifully decorated and appointed cottage but experience spoiled by lack of heating and poor response by manager. Man who came about heating didn't know anything about system, so couldn't fix it & couldn't show us how to use new controller. (Info for guests out of date.) Blinds didn't work properly and manager didn't fix this. No blind in small bedroom, although this had been mentioned by previous guest. No bath (as mentioned online). We've never had such a bad experience (4 freezing breakfasts) and we expect compensation. ##### Neil C.
