  We were contacted well ahead of scheduled arrival with instructions for key and use of cottage.

  We were party of 5 in our 70’s. Every one of us was highly impressed by the modernisation and decor of the cottage. It was spotlessly clean, beds comfortable, no noise. Plenty kitchen utensils mugs. dishes, pots etc Dishwasher, machine microwave all brand new. Bedding freshly laundered. All the home tastefully decorated. The owner was in touch a few times over the few days and proved very helpful. Especially appreciated is the en suite in every room plus one further bathroom upstairs. Just a few steps from the waterfront and harbour . Short walk to local amenities and a few excellent hotels serving delicious food and a few takeaway restaurants. Excellent and challenging 18 hole golf course yards away with lovely clubhouse and regular entertainment. Dolphin and osprey watch within 20 mile. Thoroughly recommend the cottage plus the 2 bedroom Eider Cottage attached. Thanks to the owner for making our stay so thoroughly enjoyable. We will revisit Sandpiper.

  We come every year to cullen staying in various cottages from various sites - never before have we had such a terrible experience.

  The stay itself was lovely although it was odd the owner turning up on our doorstep one day unannounced and felt like we were being checked up on. It was on our return that things turned very sour. We were blamed for multiple reports of a damage that we were not responsible for. In addition to this although we agreed to pay for repairs as we were unable to prove otherwise, the owner invoiced us for total replacement of these. Eg a few broken bed slats - invoiced for a new bed. Some biro on a cushion - invoiced for 2 new cushions. They took our entire £350 bond. We are shocked and disgusted that Sykes and the owner could be so unreasonable. Will never use either again. Avoid at all costs - Sykes offer no protection for the customer and this owner has scammed us out of £350. Nice enough cottage but just not worth it. AVOID.

  We had a fantastic week at Sandpiper cottage.

  The cottage was perfect in every way, it had everything you would need for a comfortable family stay. You can tell it has recently been recently renovated and the finish and styling really suited the location and surroundings perfectly. The owner got in touch before we arrived to ensure we had all the information we needed and to let us know they were available if required for any help, that was a really nice touch. The location of the cottage and area itself was fantastic, for us it was a last minute choice in an area we hadn't explored before, we will be back, I just hope Sandpiper cottage will be available the next time. We have been to lots of cottages over the years this was the best so far.

  The only reason I wouldn't book this cottage again is that it is so far for us to travel.

  The location is stunning and everybody is really friendly. However there are really very few places you can go in if you have dogs. There is only one pub in Findochty which only allows dogs in the public bar not the lounge where the large dining area is so if you want to eat there you either have to sit outside which is fine if the weather is good or they have one small table in the bar which is also quite a small space dominated by a pool table, the views from the outside seating are amazing though. The most dog friendly place we found locally was Portsoy where there is a small cafe where dogs are allowed both inside and outside., and in the marble shop in the 17th century harbour.
