This superb holiday cottage in the conservation Seatown area of Gardenstown was originally a fisherman's cottage, built in the 19th century and is directly on the Moray Firth - a few metres from the sea and is ideal for a family of four, or a couple looking for an away from it all break. It is not ideally suited for two couples as it has only a single bathroom.
Lie in bed listening to the sound of the waves lapping at the sea wall directly below you. The property was modernised a few years ago and features; a lounge with three sea view windows; large eating kitchen; bathroom with bath and shower over and upstairs one double bedroom and a twin bedroom.
Features include a wood burning stove; strong signal Wi-Fi; wall mounted smart television, (normally with Netflix available;) bose bluetooth music unit; Nespresso coffee machine; full kitchen with dining table; quality cotton bedding and of course those stunning sea views. Look out for the school of dolphins in the Moray Firth, which if you are fortunate could be viewed from inside the cottage.
The kitchen has a dining table for four; washing machine; fridge/freezer; oven and hob etc. Heating is by electric wall heaters and partial underfloor heating.
Situated at the bottom of sandstone cliffs, Gardenstown was founded in 1744 and the harbour now caters for small fishing vessels and pleasure boats.
The small winding streets, picturesque harbour and old stone fisherman's cottages seem untouched by time and the spectacular views, headland and bays round the village make a haven for artists, photographers and bird watchers, while the sandy beaches and rocky coves and pools make it a location for all ages.

Summary: Beautifully appointed cottage overlooking the sea. Scary step out of bedroom onto steep stair. Very narrow road to property. However lovely spot to enjoy peace and quiet. Underfloor heating in bathroom a real treat. The welcome pack was extra special and unexpected. Thank you

Summary: The property was as described, 3 metres from the sea with views across the bay from the three lounge windows. A lovely location, a sandy beach to one side and the harbour to the other with a short walk round the bay to Crovie. We only ventured out of Gardenstown once, to Macduff, as we were more than happy to stay in the village walking on the sand, round the bay or just sitting at the arbour. We did go up to the ruins of St Johns church, an energetic climb up the valley, but wonderful views from the top. There is a "Wee Shoppie" on Main Street which is well stocked with everything we needed, the Garden Arms Hotel provided meals on three of our nights there and the fresh haddock was excellent. Our daily walk on returning home was just not the same !

Summary: What a fantastic week we have had a Gannet cottage. Looking out of the windows looking at all the different wildlife from different types of birdlife to seals bobbing up to say hello. The property was well equipped with everything we needed and very comfortable after a day of exploring the local area. Definitely we will return.

Summary: We had a great stay in Gardenstown. The cottage was clean and in order and we made ourselves at home. It has fabulous views across the Moray Firth. We found it was easy to spend time in the cottage and beach and we did not necessarily need to go too far to have a nice and relaxing time. This is important for us as one of daughters is disabled and we can't go too far from where we are staying easily. However the location is very beautiful and it was lovely looking out to sea every night. I would advise bringing sleep masks though! The bedrooms are light.... ;)

Summary: Being 5m from the beach of rock pools and sand, seeing gannets dive bombing the sea 24/7 was fantastic.

Summary: I loved the stay at Garden town . Such a lovely little cottage clean well decorated . The views and the walks were spectacular . The stairs to the bedrooms were steep but manageable. The twin beds were ok but could use an extra pad to be more comfortable. We loved the neighbourhood had fun talking to various people native to the town . Was well worth the trip. Thank you Brian
