  Great flat as you described, beautiful place in a beautiful setting however enable us to have an extremely relaxing enjoyable stay, however I do have two negatives.

  1-During our stay we experienced cold high winds, the flat is an open living area with kitchen, dining and living area in the same space. The cold high winds caused a very strong draft to come through the extractor fan resulting in a very cold living space, boosting the heating was not sufficient enough to counteract the draft. 2-My wife and I work hard and save our money to enable us to take a holiday and get away from the stresses, strains and chores of everyday life. I received an email from you the day before our holiday was over directing that we remove all bedding, sheets, pillow cases duvet covers etc and place them in the bath. I did complete the tasks you asked (after getting grief from my wife) but I am not happy about this. Surely you employ a cleaner who comes in after guests leave to ensure the flat is clean and ready for the next guests, is that not why check out is at 10 and check in at 5? I do take a holiday expecting to do the job of a cleaner or anyone else.

  We were delighted with our stay at Aurora View.

  It's a beautifully furnished, spacious, extremely well equipped and ideally placed apartment. The views are incredible, we never tired of gazing out at the beach/sea view. You can dolphin watch with binoculars from the full length front room window! It's the ideal base for travelling to the many nearby visitor attractions and destinations and you can walk for miles along the beautiful Findhorn beach which only takes a few minutes to reach on foot. There are places to eat/drink a little walk away where you can find the most delicious, local fish and chips. The standard of the facilities in the apartment is excellent and there are lots of little, thoughtful touches that make your stay that little bit more special, they really have thought of everything. We would highly recommend a stay here and are definitely planning a return trip.

  Aurora View is a pleasant, comfortable, well-equipped flat, made spectacular by the circular living-dining area with 5 windows looking out over the Moray Firth.

  The central window is floor-to-ceiling and always causes a gasp of delight on entering the room. We were blessed with fantastic sunny weather for all of our three-day visit, but I’m sure stormy weather would be equally spectacular. The flat was warm, welcoming and everything was easy to find and use. Access was straightforward and trouble-free, as were all facilities and instructions. A walk of a few minutes took us to the amazing, huge beach, to the harbour or village, and to the cafes, pubs and shop. We had good meals of local fresh fish in both pubs, but the fresh seafood in the Crown and Anchor was really special, (particularly the Shetland scallops). The combination of easy comfort and stunning views made this a really lovely holiday.

  Arora view is a second floor apartment in a block with fantastic views out to sea.

  The little village is friendly boasting a shop and adjacent bakery which opens at 10 am each day.Findhorn is very well situated with Forres nearby where a climb up the Nelson monument is strongly advised. There is a Tesco and Lidl on the outskirts of Forres and an interesting eco village with community living on the way out of Findhorn. I had a conversation with the owner who was pleasant and helpful. The apparment has great views out of large picture windows and is well equiped.There is a lot of shipping movement in the sea which can be seen with ease. There are seals on the beach and deer came into the ground on at least 3 days of our stay. Would we return most definately. A graet stay in welcoming surroundings.
