• "My stay in Pennan was a tick off my bucket list and it didn't disappoint , The cottage has everything you need to cater for yourself."

  I stayed early October and was lucky with the weather but on the occasion I did need central heating it was very efficient and warmed the cottage in minutes. I also lit the coal fire for extra cosiness. The village pub is now open 4 night a week and worth a visit as is the costal cuppie - a small shack on the harbour selling hot drinks and cakes and its owner Shona is a mine of local information. It was all abut the location for me and didn't disappoint.

  Hello Katrina, pleased everything worked out for you in Pennan. Olivia Property Owner

• "We are just back from a week at St Magnus Haven which is in Pennan and not Gardenstown which is a little bit further along the coast."

  I have given St Magnus Haven a consistent five star rating as we found it to be a very comfortable and clean 'home from home' in a very quiet and peaceful seaside village. But it is not only us who enjoyed our stay, our little dachshund settled the very first night and had a whale of a time enjoying the sand, sea and rock pools.

  Thank you for this review and delighted that little Lily enjoyed herself. Olivia. Property Owner

• "Again a completely relaxing holiday with visits to the “coastal cuppie” and Aden country park for dog to run about."

  Only downside was previous guest left the oven trays dirty as well as the microwave so had to clean prior to any usage? But otherwise good holiday

  Dear Gary Very puzzled about your comments, I know that the cottage is prepared and checked thoroughly before guests arrive. Pleased you enjoyed the holiday. The pens at Aden park are brilliant. My greyhound past on but we loved it there. Property Owner

• "What a property!"

  We simply didn't want to leave. It's got all the creature comforts, comfortable bed, peaceful. The heating is simple but really does the job, it was used a couple of times as there was a few times where the NE weather was a bit chilly. The property soon warmed up and had to halt the heating within minutes otherwise it got too hot. The kitchen is well equipped as well and the bathroom/shower unit was amazing. 10 out of 10 lovely.

  Very comfortable, tastefully decorated and easy to heat. The kitchen had all the equipment you could possibly need and more. I loved the shower with the large head and the bed was very comfortable. The sun room/ dining room was an added bonus and was lovely and warm in the am’s. The tv and mobile phone reception were great.

• "This was a very relaxing break, just simply peace and quiet."

  Much time spent on the beach with our dog, who had a fabulous time also. Watching the waves rolling in is soporific. The road down to Pennan is steep, but the first sight of the village setting is positively stunning. The cottage is small, but all you need, comfy and cosy. An escape from the hustle and bustle of our normal life....perfect.

  Thank you Dawn. I am returning at the end of October so will also enjoy the beauty of Pennan and the peace and quiet. Olivia Property Owner

• "A true home from home, exceptionally well equipped, cosy, painlessly clean and comfortable."

  Spacious and a secure, beautiful, sun-trap courtyard garden. The views were amazing and to be able to watch sunrise and sunset was a real bonus. Lots of information about the area supplied and so many books to read. We had amazing weather and had lovely walks over the cliffs to local villages. St Magnus Haven and Pennan itself were truly once in a lifetime finds, locals were very friendly and helpful. Missing the peace and quiet and sounds of the sea on the shore already.

  We found it very comfortable and cozy. Shower is brilliant. If you want to cook whilst here the kitchen is extremely small and cramped which we did know was small before we arrived so did only cook a couple of times.

• "St. Magnus Haven was my home away from home, well equipped and really comfortable."

  Lashings of hot water and central heating kept me nice and warm. It's a lovely property and I had no problems at all in my week there. The WiFi speed was really good, my Amazon Firestick worked without a hitch on the TV. The village is quiet but I went to get away from it all and myself and my dog enjoyed the shingle beach outside the property and Aderdour Bay which is just a bit east and only a short drive away. There are no shops or facilities in the village itself, and sadly the Inn was shut during my visit. Banff and Fraserborough offer the usual supermarket and other facilities and both are just a short drive.

  A beautiful setting with only the noise of the sea and the seagulls! The well enclosed garden was perfect for our little dog and we felt happy knowing he could go out and was safe and secure. The oil fired heating was a bonus as the evenings even in June could be a little chilly but the cottage quickly warmed up with a little heating. All in all for us a perfect holiday in an amazing location, can't wait to return!

  Great spot and St Magnus Haven is perfect. Quiet, tranquil setting and literally nothing to do but enjoy. The cottage was scrupulously clean and had everything I needed for a peaceful stay. The nearby beaches and villages were lovely and it is amazing how many hours can be lost watching boats be put in the water. Quite honestly it was the best holiday I have ever had. Oh, the dog loved it too!

• "We found the kitchen area very small and cluttered."

  We both like to cook and lack of space made it very difficult for two people to be in the kitchen at the same time. The bed was very comfortable, but the duvet was not big enough to cover two people, and at the end of October it was quite cold, it requires a king size duvet. Overall this is a nice cottage in a lovely location.

• "Has to have been the most relaxing holiday We've had."

  Perhaps not everyone's taste but so quiet, tranquil and if we'd been any more relaxed, we'd have been horizontal. The view of the sea from our window kept us constantly in awe with the changes. Lovely little villages around. No noise bar the waves. Lovely Pennan Inn at end of street. Wonderful place to unwind and relax.
