  Learig is easy to find in Buckie.

  I used google maps and followed the owners directions to the property before we arrived so that I could see the route exactly. The cottage is warm, clean and beautifully furnished with the most spectacular views over the Moray Firth. There is a well set out instruction folder with details regarding the property and appliances. The owners provided a lovely welcome basket with some Scottish treats which we thoroughly enjoyed. And the provision of binoculars was great for scanning the horizon. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could need to prepare meals. There are also washing up liquid, dishwasher pods, tea towels, hand wash and cleaning products provded. The sitting room has comfortable sofas upholstered with Harris tweed, which are very cosy on cool evenings. The instructions for the tv were easy to follow and we watched some great films. The beds are quite firm but comfortable and we slept well. The bedding is high quality and the towels soft. The shower we used, on the ground floor, was excellent with plenty of hot water, but a little snug. I used the washing machine and tumble dryer whilst there, both were very easy to use and efficient. The tumble dryer water tank and fluff filters had not been cleaned out by a previous guest even though there are instructions to do this, so I did it, and left them cleaned after use. I was unfortunately unable to clean out the condenser as it is recessed and my ancient knees wouldn’t allow me to get down low enough to retrieve it! Perhaps the owner could consider that the tumble dryer be checked by the cleaning team on change over day. The bins are the four nearest the house at the side of the parking space. We found the general waste bin quite full already when we arrived but managed to squeeze in our bag of rubbish at the end of our stay. Fortunately the bin lorry was in the locality on the day we left, so hopefully it was emptied. The brown bin seemed to have a mixture of various sorts of rubbish and was very smelly, this may need attention. As it was unclear which bin the food waste bag went in, we unfortunately ended up putting it in the general rubbish bin. Perhaps the owners could consider adding a note to the instruction folder regarding the correct bins for particular types of rubbish. Despite the bin niggles, we had a lovely week in Buckie and enjoyed staying in this super property and would recommend it to anyone wanting a comfortable place to stay in this beautiful area of Scotland. We would also recommend a visit to Lily’s Kitchen Cafe in Cullen for the most delicious Cullen Skink, sheer heaven in a soup bowl!

  It was an amazing stay at Corner Cottage in Port Gordon.

  The cottage was definitely a home from home and so comfortable to stay in. Port Gordon itself does not have very much in it, a community café that runs a few days a week by volunteers and they were all just lovely. There is a Spar no pub, however Buckie is 2 mins in the car up the Road with a large Tesco and lots of stuff there. Beach is great and harbor for walks and enjoyed seeing the family of seals there. Great Access to all the Towns around spent time in Lossiemouth watching the jets which my son just loved. There is even a Car Charger out at the back of the house and we had an electric car so that was amazing. Thank you Tina the host who even returned my jumper I had left! HIGHLY RECROMMEND and we will definitely be back.

  A real Gem.

  Tastefully modernised, decorated and furnished. Extremely well equipped. Comfortable. Good location. Dog friendly and with sea-side walks, a few metres from front door. Excellent communications and instructions from owners. WiFi, Television and heating systems are very good. We have booked a lot of self catering accommodation over many years - this ranks amongst the best. Owners have obviously put a lot of thought and effort into bringing this high quality cottage to the rental market. I would highly recommend, and book again. We were just a couple, and puppy. So had no need to even venture upstairs. Would be very comfortable for 4 and even six. You could book this property safely and not be disappointed.

  As soon as we walked in we could see how clean and well decorated it is.

  Then walking into the living room and seeing the beautiful view through the double doors out to the kitchen was breath-taking. Stunning views everyday no matter the weather, Everything about the home signals quality, from furniture, to bedding to bathrooms to kitchen set up. Everything. It is in a great position for town, cafe's, walking, driving distance to beautiful Cullen and Findhorn. Despite being so close to the sea, it was very quiet too, gull wise. Having stayed coastal for the past few years in Scotland, this was very welcome. Safe to say this is one of the best accommodations we ever stayed in.

  On arrival, notice it looked like the place had not been hovered very well and dust over picture frames, mould in the bathroom and the kettle was black inside.

  Had to go and buy another kettle to have a cup of tea. And on the morning of departure had the cleaner around just before 9am asking what beds have been slept in. Even tho check out time was 10am 2nd cottage I have book though Skype cottages in the past 6 months that's not cleaned very well and having black mould within the building. 100% will not recommend anyone to Skype cottages and will never book with them again. As for nearly £700 for a week's stay and having to Hoover and clean then getting a kettle before even enjoying the holiday. Really let's down a lovely cottage once again
