"The property is lovely."
The only thing we found wrong with it was that the sofa bed is really uncomfortable to sit on. I would not like to think that 4 people could stay there It's ideal for 2 but that's it apart from that it was perfect. The village is lovely and surrounding area too. Facilities within Buckie are super everything you need is in buckie otherwise Elgin is only half hour or so away which is also a lovely place. The neighbours are very nice and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay and will hopefully be back in the area again

"Lovely clean and cosy cottage, ideally situated for walks by the shore."
Very well equipped, home from home
-
"The Seaspray cottage is very good and I enjoyed everyday at there."
-
"The cottage was very comfortable and cosy and was the perfect base for a short break."
We enjoyed lots of beautiful coastal walks as well as some yummy lunches in Cullen and Portsoy. We will definitely be back to this beautiful part of Scotland and would happily recommend this cottage.

"The booking process itself through Sykes was extremely easy, quick and user-friendly."
A comprehensive confirmation was sent to us including several details from the owners. Details of location, parking and key pickups was also provided making the arrival at the cottage very straightforward. The cottage itself was immaculate and the welcome basket was indeed very welcoming! It even included treats for our dogs! Beds were comfortable and warm with lots of wardrobe and drawer space if required. Kitchen and bathroom were both spotless and had plenty of storage. Our only niggle was the shower. The pressure was very poor and we both had to use it as a hand spray. The temperature was good though and I don’t know if perhaps we didn’t use it properly. Would suggest perhaps that it is checked out anyway. I have chosen not to mark the cottage down because of the shower though because in every other way it was perfect and I highly recommend. Thank you very much ❤️

"Lovely warm and cosy cottage in a peaceful location yet easy distances to rest of the West and East coast trails ."
Helpful owners and good directions to property . We thoroughly enjoyed exploring this area from Buckie and its proximity to the many historic fishing villages .

"Enjoyed our 1 week stay at Seaspray cottage."
Very clean and well equipped. As others have commented neighbours are very friendly and cottage just about 50 yards from the promenade at the sea. Yardie conservation area is close to Buckie’s shopping amenities and only 10-12 minutes walk to a fast EV charging facility. Only minor critisms, namely only 1 toilet roll in property on arrival and salt/ pepper grinders were empty but otherwise all good and bed very comfortable.
Thank you for your great review David, we as so glad you enjoyed your stay at Seaspray Cottage. We will add an extra loo roll. Salt and pepper grinders in the kitchen topped up. We have just fitted a doggie gate in the rear yard. Hope to have you back again. Property Owner

"This is a lovely modern cottage."
The furniture is modern with clean lines and has been thoughtfully decorated. However , is only big enough for 2 even though it states in the description that it’s big enough for 4. The bed was a bit uncomfortable, this could really do with replacing. The description is a bit misleading- the cottage is very close to the sea, but you are not able to walk on the beach because it is mainly rocks. However, a 10 minute walk brings you to a sandy/rocky beach you can walk on. I you can easily get to other areas by car. We went to Loch Ness but unfortunately didn’t see Nessy. Although parking is on a first come first served basis, we didn’t have any problems finding a space. It is on a narrow street, and you do tend to bump into the neighbours as you are coming and going, but they are very friendly (and love dogs). The welcome hamper was lovely, and appreciated by both humans and dogs ❤️
Thanks for the comments Valerie, we really appreciate guest's feedback and are always looking to improve anything we can that is within our control. We have replaced the mattress. So gald your dog had a lovely time as well x Property Owner

"Beautiful clean & comfy cottage with all home comforts not far from waterfront."
Small courtyard which was bonus to have in a fisherman's cottage, only downside is neighbouring cottages windows overlook seating area though there's nothing can be done about that. We loved our stay here and would certainly recommend it
Hello Margaret, Thank you for your lovely feedback. Very Kkind of you. We are so happy that you enjoyed your say at Seaspray. We will have a look into your window comment as I am sure we could come up with a solution to that as generally othing is impossible. Hope you come back to stay again. Thanks again. Property Owner

"Wonderful holiday cottage, a credit to Jake & Louise and located in a perfect position for exploring the beautiful moray firth coastline."
Hello Paul, We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Seaspray. Thank you for the lovely feedback, it is really appreciated. We are lucky with the Moray coast line, so much to see here, and then there is the Spey valley as well and all it offers as well. Hope you come and stay again. Thanks Jake & Louise Property Owner

"Amazing little property."
We managed to see and do lots nearby and even a trip up to John o groats! We were treated to the northern lights on our stay in November, such a treat. Property in great condition with perfect facilities and a lovely welcome basket for us and our four legged friend. Thank you and highly recommended
Hello Ruth, Delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay, and your four legged friend! Wow just brilliant that you saw the northern lights! Thank you for the lovely feedback, so good of you. Hope you come again. Thanks Jake & Louise Property Owner

"Fantastic wee cottage with everything you need for a cosy holiday."
The description states an inclosed garden which isn't strictly true as it is the bins that act as a fence at one end with plenty of room for a dog to get through. Perhaps an extensible stair gate across the front of the bins would work? Buckie is a great base to explore along the Moray coast with short drives to Cullen, Portsoy etc There are plenty of places close by to walk the dog. We had a fantastic time.
Hello Dorothy , thank you for your great comments, really appreciated. So glad you enjoyed your stay at the cottage. We are looking into a small gate for the rear yard as we are always looking to improve guests stay in anyway we can. Haste ye back! Thanks Jake & Louise Property Owner

"Our cosy cottage which was a mere 250 metres from the sea was beautiful, on a narrow street with friendly warm neighbours that are chatty and informative, the cottage is perfect for a couple with good size rooms throughout."
Buckie is a small but lovely place with all that you need within a couple of minutes drive away, the coastline is very impressive we travelled 30 mins west to Lossiemouth for a day and 15-20 mins east where we visited Cullen, Banff and Macduff all worth seeing while up there by the gorgeous bright waves bashing against the rocks, Buckie took our hearts away and we shall think of the place when back home !!!
Hello Roman, thank you so much for your lovely comments . We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and got ot explore the area...it really is quite a special area. Hope to see you again. Thanks Jake Property Owner

"We had a wonderful time in Buckie."
The cottage was perfectly presented and very comfortable. We were sorry to leave. The welcome basket was a nice surprise and the owners provided a lot of information about the area. Nice neighbours across the lane too. We would love to return, but it is a long way from Australia. Thanks for the memories.
Hi Alan, thank you so much for the lovely comments and we where so glad that you enjoyed your stay. Was great to talk to you. Our neighbours are just so nice. Hopefully you will be back one day! Thanks Jake & Louise Property Owner

"Immaculate and cosy cottage well equipped with all you need."
Loved the quirky decor in line with the theme of the cottage. Generous welcome pack. The cottage is in a beautiful and quiet location within easy reach by car to some stunning beaches such as Findhorn and Lossiemouth beaches. I had a lovely relaxing stay here with my dog and the locals were friendly and welcoming to both me and my dog. I hope to return

"Overall a great little cottage for a lovely quiet break, well within range of things to do."
Hosts communicated promptly and without issue, made sure they were on top of things. 1 small issue listed as enclosed garden which is not quite accurate as the bins are used to shut off garden but small dog would get through gaps, which our dog is, so would benefit from a fence to stop this. Overall a great place.
Hello William, thank you for your great feedback, much appreciated. So glad you enjoyed your stay. We are looking into a small gate for the rear yard as we are always lolokig to improve the cottage in anyway we can.....Haste ye back. Thanks Jake Property Owner

"The cottage was great."
Very clean with all of the facilities we needed to make it a very comfortable place to stay. No issues at all. Nice welcome basket. Very close to the sea which was perfect for us and easy to access the town and local area. Only thing we would mention is very poor shower pressure but this is a minor niggle. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Hello Jane, thank you so much, that is just great, thank you so much for staying at Seaspray Cottage. We have investigated the shower niggle and it has now been sorted , thank you for letting us know. Hope you come stay again. Thanks Jake Property Owner

"+ Spacious , comfortable , modern , spotless ,good Wi-Fi , well equipped, dog friendly ."
Very receptive hosts and very generous welcome pack. - Parking not ideal . Fridge does not have ice compartment so no way to make or store ice for drinks. No EE mobile reception. The pluses more than outweighed the negatives and we had a lovely stay.
Thank you for you comments, so glad you had a lovely stay. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage very well presented really clean had everything you would need, lovely welcome basket and milk in the fridge was very thoughtful gorgeous location very friendly people only downer was uncomfortable mattress on the bed."
Thank you for your lovely message and that you enjoyed your stay at Seaspray Cottage. The mattress is a new orthopedic mattress, however we will look into this further. Thanks again. Property Owner

"We found the cottage in a immaculate condition and well equipted and comfortable."
Good location for our favourite beach at Cullen. We have to raise one point though, we booked with the understanding that we had a secure dog friendly garden and Im sorry but a gravel covered yard blocked off with a couple of wheely bins does not match the description. luckily for us our dog is pretty big, but a little one would get out easily. One suggestion, will all the hard flooring, a sweeping brush would be very useful.

Lovely well kept property in a lovely setting by the coast would definitely have no hesitation in booking the property again

"Spotless when we arrived, no problems parking on either side of the property and only a short walk to door."
Our neighbours were friendly, but it is a quiet location, where you can hear the sea both day and night. If being mega picky a colander in the kitchen would have helped. But no real need to cook as there are plenty of places to eat along the coast. Linda's Chip shop in Cullen is recommended. Will use this cottage again when we visit the North East of Scotland.

"Lovely property and location."
Welcome gifts is a nice touch and appreciated. The good weather all week certainly helped as well. We decided at the last moment to leave our pet with our youngest daughter and it made the whole holiday very restful and allowed us to wander at our leisure.
Thank you Rab for your nice comments, glad you liked the welcome pack, so glad you had good weather. Hope your dog makes it next time! Thanks. Property Owner

"Best cottage I've been to ."
It has everything you need ,very comfortable and great position Would definitely recommend it and would go back .
-
"A delightful well equipped cottage with lovely neighbours."
Well positioned for exploring the coastal path with stunning scenery. A further enhancement to the cottage provision could be suggestions for local walks or places of interest, from a local’s perspective, but this is picky! We had a fabulous time and the weather was kind to us
-
"Lovely cottage, well equipped and ideal location for sightseeing and local walks."
Highlights of our holiday were…. Cullen, Fiddle Bow Rock, bits of Speyside Way, Winding Walks. In Buckie, coffee and sweet treats from Pozzi, Fish & Chips and delivered Chinese from China Town all excellent. In Cullen, we highly recommend the Rock Pool for coffees, breakfasts and light lunches.
Dear guest, Thank you very much for your great comments on the cottage and your local site seeing recommendations, these are great and really appreciated. Property Owner

The property
Settled besides the Moray coast, with scenic sea-views, is this traditional fishing cottage, Seaspray.

There is a sofa bed available in the living room if there is more than 2 of you.
Arrive on the fishing lane and be greeted by the crashing waves nearby, close enough to spray you!
Enter the stone-fronted cottage into the entrance hallway, here you can kick off your shoes and house them, ready for an adventure.
Stepping through the home, locate the contemporary kitchen/ diner, with a gas cooker to rustle up culinary delights and a fridge to store your favourite bottle of wine.
Settle down at the dining table to enjoy a hearty meal with your friends and family and afterwards admire the coastal view from the rear garden.
Discover the sitting room, where you can unwind on the sumptuous sofa, which pulls out as a bed for flexible sleeping, and you can flicker through the Smart TV for a movie night in.
As the sky grows dark, head to the family bathroom to melt your worries away in a bubble-bath or rinse the sand off under the overhead shower.
There is a lovely, white-washed double bedroom to rest your head with storage to keep your personal belongings.
Awaken in the enclosed garden with a cup of coffee in hand as you let the sea-breeze revitalize you.
Uncover the history of Buckie at the Buckie and District Fishing Heritage Centre and view the North Pier Lighthouse at the handsome harbour.
Whiskey connoisseurs will delight at the easy access to a fantastic selection of world-famous distilleries, including the Glenglassaugh Distillery, Auchroisk Distillery, Knockdhu Distillery and the Glen Moray Distillery, where you sample your favourites and even take a tour.
Golfers can test their swing at Buckpool Golf Club and fishing lovers can make use of the superb fishing location.
Venture to the cliff-top village of Portknockie for a haven of wildlife and scenery; here you can explore the deep Portknockie Woods and soak in the wonderful sights from Bow Fiddle Rock.
Just a 1 mile walk west towards Portgordon you can look out for seals and dolphins playing in the waves.
Jump in the car and visit the village of Cullen, home to hidden treasures such as the great Findlater Castle, a golden sandy beach, and quirky cafes to fuel your excursions.
For memories you will cherish, choose Seaspray.

BUCKIE

Overlooking the beautiful Moray Firth, the burgh town of Buckie lies on either side of the Burn of Buckie, on the north east coast of Scotland. It has an array of shops and pubs and is a great coastal base from which to explore this wonderful part of Scotland. Regular boat trips leave from the harbours of Buckie and further along the coast to Macduff, which offer the chance to see bottlenose dolphins and an array of sea birds. To the west of the town, Spey Bay is the base for the Scottish Dolphin Centre and is also a fantastic place from which to spot dolphins and seals! From Buckie, stretching in both directions, the coastline is peppered with pretty fishing villages and wonderful beaches that are perfect to stroll along with your fish and chips. Pack a picnic, drive to the fabled Loch Ness and enjoy a stroll along its stunning shoreline, or explore the historic city of Elgin, a short drive away. There is so much to see and do from this wonderful little seaside town.
