On arrival the overall impression was of a very high standard, the staff were excellent, as was the room, and facilities. The food could not be better, very high quality and service, a credit to the chef. In all I can not say anything that is praise enough for the service and accommodation we were provided. As far as my wife and I are concerned, we will always be staying at the Harbour Springs Hotel when visiting Peterhead.

This was a fantastic place to relax, although a little dated the room was spotless and comfortable.
The staff were marvellous and nothing was too much trouble.
We didn’t have breakfast but had lunch and dinner a few times, the food was delicious, especially the fish specials, they are definitely worth a try.
You can sit outside in the evening and really enjoy the sea air, love this part of the world and the seal beach which is a short distance from the hotel.

3 of us had 3 separate rooms during our 2 night stay, the reception staff were very welcoming, rooms were immaculately clean and very well maintained as was the full hotel top to bottom, beds super comfy, bathrooms sparkling & spotlessly clean & overall room size was large with adequate storage for clothes etc.
In the morning guests are welcomed in to a really pleasant dining room by a lovely bright & bubbly lady member of the hotel staff.

A first class, really different B&B. Lovely old building filled with amazing furniture and a lovely collection of quirky items, both inside and outside the house.
Beautiful spread of continental breakfast items, plus a hard to beat cooked Scottish breakfast, the plates full of good quality local produce.
Karolyn and Chris were the perfect hosts, who made every effort to make our stay comfortable, with some nice touches.
Due to the rural location, the honesty bar is a great idea for those who...

An absolutely stunning house and great service. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here and will be back. Durham is a beautiful city and our stay here was the icing on the cake. We are both carnivores and the staff were very considerate, giving us a packed breakfast to take with us as we had to leave very early on the morning of our departure. Thank you so much for an incredible break. We will be back in the spring. James and Lydia.

Cute accommodation, clean and comfortable with a great place for breakfast and lunch close by. Easily walkable into Inverurie and somewhere I’d definitely recommend for a short break.

Cottage had everything you may need. Small welcome pack with tea/coffee/sugar/milk and shortbread for your arrival. Off road parking was a bonus. Chip shop within walking distance which was also an ice cream shop, post office and sold some groceries. Wonderful beach within walking distance too.
