  • "Perfect in every way."

    Cottage looked out over the sea. It was clean, comfortable and supplied with everything we needed to have a wonderful holiday. Village was so quiet and peaceful with a fabulous variety of walks available from the property. Also lots to do in the area. Good bus service and village has a shop, hotel/pub and takeaways just a short walk away. Locals were also friendly and welcoming . Have already booked to go back to Portknockie next year.

    As a tall couple we found the double bed a little short and narrow. Perhaps an investment in a King-size bed would provide greater comfort for guests.

    The cottage was very warm, clean, spacious and so well kitted out. The photos do not do it justice. We enjoyed walks along the beautiful coast on sunny days and drives to Inverness and many pretty coastal villages when it was not so dry! Fort George was very interesting and from here we got a glimpse of some dolphins. To top it all we managed to get pictures of the aurora. A great place to visit.
