Rest your head in one of four thoughtfully presented bedrooms with homely décor; the ground floor hosts two double bedrooms, whilst the first floor has a king-size with a Smart TV and a twin bedroom.

Take a scenic drive into Portsoy for classic fish and chips along the harbour, walking along the coast to the Dolphin Statue, and The Salmon Bothy Museum; Boyne Castle is also nearby to visit the ruins of a 16th-century courtyard castle!

The famed Malt Whisky Trail is a unique way to discover local history, heritage, and delicacies.

Grab your towels and head to Sandend, a small fishing village with a spectacular beach to while away the hours, with plenty of watersports opportunities such as paddle boarding and surfing.

Where you’ll be staying

PORTSOY

Fordyce & Sandend 1 mile; Cullen 6 miles; Banff 8 miles.

Portsoy is a historic port situated mid-way between the towns of Cullen and Banff on the pretty Moray Firth coast and is one of the many atmospheric fishing ports scattered along this impressive stretch of the north east coastline of Scotland. Boasting two harbours, one old and one new and with excellent local facilities including hotels, pubs and shops, Portsoy is a wonderful holiday destination as well as being near to the famous Malt Whisky Trail. The area is awash with quality golf courses with fabulous coastal views and the coastal path is perfect for walkers who want to enjoy the unspoilt beauty of the area and roam freely on its lovely beaches. A visit to the Salmon Bothy is a must to get a real feel of the interesting history of Portsoy and hear the story of the area as a trading, fishing and smuggling port.
