"Our family stay at 1a Seafield Street was fabulous."
The house was toasty and cosy on our arrival which is always a bonus . The welcome pack was very generous and kitchen was well equipped. The house situation was very easy within walking distance to all amenities. Debbie the housekeeper was very helpful and on hand if needed she’s amazing

"The property made a great base for a family get together birthday weekend."
Plenty of space to spread out….the pool and darts room was very popular! Beds were comfortable and shower cubicles spacious. Well equipped for self catering but within walking distance of hotels and takeaways… Within walking distance to beach and woodland walks
Thank you we really appreciate the great feedback! Property Owner

Communications was great.

"Great place to go to with the whole family ( 9 - 80)."

We really appreciate your feedback thanks! Property Owner

"The house was superb & absolutely huge."
It even has a tumble dryer (in the detached games room) which wasn’t listed as a feature, but was desperately needed due to the extremely wet weather we had. The ‘Hive’ central heating was also a blessing due to the ‘feels like’ temperature outside being sub-zero. The house was lovely & warm. We especially loved the table tennis table on the top floor landing & the pool table in the games room. Also, special mention to Debbie (the housekeeper) for her friendly welcome & excellent communication. We really hope to return to the house sometime soon, as it provided a fantastic base for us all. Plus, we highly recommend Portknockie Fish & Chip shop, but ring the order in early!! (The Crunchy Fried Pop Pop Chicken is MEGA!).

"Great stay at 1 seafield place, prompt communication from host and house had everything to make it a home from home."
Thanks Ian and colleagues.
We really appreciate your feedback thanks! Property Owner

"Great house for a family get together."
Split over three floors there is ample space for splitting off into a quite corner or big gatherings in the living room and kitchen. One small note would be the kitchen table could be a little narrower. With a larger group there is no room to pass or open the fridge doors.
-
"The home is a lovely size, plenty space for a large family gathering."
It’s in an ideal location and has good outdoor space. It is an old house so there’s general wear and tear that adds to the charm. There are small things that could be upgraded such as bedroom drawers, perhaps larger sofas, a hoover upstairs (to save carrying one up 3 floors) however it’s to be expected when a place is rented out. Overall I’ve given a 9 as the house is generally well maintained and we had a lovely time. The welcome pack is generous and the house is very well equipped. We would definitely return.
-
"Great stay and an enjoyable time was had by all."
Close to the local amenities and the beach. The kitchen had everything you could need to cook etc. The only issue is it was very cold on the top floor even with the heating on. It never warmed up.
Thank you very much for your feedback. We are addressing the heating on the top floor in the next couple of weeks as it’s the first opportunity we’ve had to replace the boiler. Thanks for the feedback though! Property Owner

"This property is perfect for large family groups."

"Had a fantastic family weekend break, location ideal, accommodation was great, has everything you need and more, we had fun times in the games room, like most holiday accommodation there a a very few minor decor issues needing attention."
Property was clean, comfy beds and plenty of seating. You can hear some early morning road traffic from some bedrooms but road was quiet at night. Excellent communication with host and was very accommodating with a special request we had before arrival . The only thing that could have made it any better was if there was an option of bed downstairs, possibly a sofa bed in snug TV room. However we would love to come back as we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Thank you for your great feedback. We loved that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you back soon! Property Owner
-

Thank you for leaving great feedback. We really appreciate it. Property Owner

Well situated. Everything you could possibly need. Will definitely stay again

"This was an absolutely fantastic property, it accommodated the entire family, was close to all amenities and had a high standard of finishing throughout."
I have returned to this property twice and would highly recommend. I intend to book again, great place and the games room was a huge plus, kept the kids entertained all week.
Thank you very much for your great feedback. I’m glad you enjoy the property as much as our family do! Property Owner

"This house was great, we had a fantastic weekend of playing games, eating, drinking and enjoying walks around Cullen."
The house has a well stocked kitchen, with a good selection of plates, etc, pans and even oven proof dishes, if you fancy doing a roast! The new updated bathrooms are lovely and the shower is lovely. Would highly recommend for a large group of friends/family. A lovely part of the world and a lovely property

"Very comfortable property that catered for all."
We were a party of 9 which was 6 adults and 3 children. The separate games room went down well with the boys. Was a shame the weather was not a wee bit dryer for us to sit out and enjoy the outdoor space. Plenty room for everyone. The property was immaculate. Thanks for the welcome pack too.
-
"Property was fine one comment I have is there were no linked up alarms in the property which I'm sure is amust especially renting properties."

"Excellent property -- had a great weekend based there."
Clean, spacious (despite us being a party of 10...) and perfectly located to enjoy Cullen and the wider Moray coast.
-
"A lovely and spacious property in a beautiful location."
Lots of flexible space for 3 generations including the safe enclosed outdoor space and the pool table was a hit. The house was warm and cosy and well equipped, the welcome pack was a very nice touch. We had everything we needed and more! Cullen is a lovely, friendly fishing village with a range of unusual shops, cafes and is a super base to explore the Moray coast. We had some lovely walks and the beaches were enjoyed by all.
-
"Brilliant property with a quirky layout perfect for large groups."
Great to have enclosed back space and the games areas. Kitchen really well stocked with utensils, crockery, glasses and cookware - thank you! Thanks also to the lovely Debbie for her prompt, friendly and helpful communications. Our group of 2 families thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Thanks you very much for your kind feedback. We are constantly trying to improve our property to make sure guests have a great experience. Glad to see that you enjoyed our house and hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

"Excellent spacious house will definitely be back"

"We stayed at 1 Seafield Street over New Year and had a great time at the property."
Our party was made up of 6 adults, 4 kids and 3 dogs and the house was perfect for our large family gathering. The property had everything that we needed and the games room was an added bonus enjoyed by everyone. The location was ideal for access to the beach, cliff tops and surrounding areas right from the front door and we had great fun exploring the area and family walks with the dogs. We were fortunate with the weather as the sun shone the whole weekend allowing us to make the most of our time in Cullen. We will definitely be back again in the future. (Our only complaint was that we couldn't get the dishwasher to work properly and we couldn't find any instructions to help.)

"Cottage was very clean and we were well looked after by a superb host Debbie who could not do enough for us."
Cottage in a great location in a lovely village of Cullen, with local pubs, chinese take away, chippy, well stocked co-op and second hand shops galore. The cottage was very spacious for extended family and friends. The property has a lovely rear garden enclosed garden, close to neighbours but plenty of privacy. Gates around property meant your dog was 100% secure (field just opposite for quick walks) Superb out door Pool table situated in outbuilding (big hit with us all) via separate entrance to the front door (just needs some heating as very cold and unusable without heating). This was resolved by Debbie with portable heater. Lovely large dining kitchen, (very well equipped) large double fridge and freezer, small snug with settee and second tv off the hall way. The road noise is very loud as the cottage is situated on a very busy main road and the double glazing is old and tired and in need of upgrade and or internal glazing as sleeping is hard with HGVS hurtling past all night long. House is lovely and warm as a good heating system. The bedrooms are simple/basic over 3 floors buts some are lacking mirrors, The property is need of some tlc from broken blinds to cracked floor tiles, Damp on the walls in main bathroom - its ready for some investment as tired in places. Overall a very good setup for a large group. Again must credit the manager/housekeeper who worked hard to make sure your stay was a good one.
Thank you for your feedback. This helps us improve and get better. Unfortunately straight after your stay we made most of the improvements and renovations that you had pointed out. Due to the fact that we have been fully booked all peak season, this was the first chance we have had to book a week off for maintenance. I am just very sorry you came before it happened instead of after. Bad timing! The outdoor games annex is not heated due to choice; we do however encourage guests to start their own fire in the designated open fire area with chimney. All bathrooms have been completely renovated and new blinds have been installed throughout. I would love to welcome you and your family back to show you the small issues that you thought could be improved upon having been resolved. Thanks again for your feedback! Property Owner

"Great location, accommodation clean and comfortable we had all we needed for home away from home ."
Bearing in mind we were a not at full capacity the only improvement would be a better electric hob as this one was old and inefficient for cooking. ?? Another toilet However property well kept nice place we enjoyed our stay would recommend.
Thank you for your feedback, it’s how we improve. I am glad to report that we have now upgraded to a 5 ring Samsung gas hob. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Property Owner

"Lovely house in a great location."
Great communication from the housekeeper regarding keys and any questions, house was clean and fresh when we arrived. Great area to explore. Would recommend
-
"Fabulous place, great house with amazingly well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and a lovely house keeper."
The fabulous outside space, parking on site for 4 vehicles and proximity to all local amenities make this a great place to stay. We loved it!
-
"Our holiday was so relaxing as my husband has mixed dementia he enjoyed it with my son his wife and grandchildren ."
The week went too quick very enjoyable for us all :)
-
"We loved everything, Cullen and surrounding area, especially the beautiful beaches, the house which is spacious and well equipped."
A log fire kept us cosy while we had great fun playing pool. We also had a wonderful BBQ in the very private outside space.
-
"We had a lovely family holiday at Seafield Steeet."
We have stayed here twice and found it a welcoming and comfortable house. The housekeeper Debbie was very helpful. Cullen has wonderful walks and a stunning beach. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area. We particularly enjoyed the North East Falconry centre near Huntly and looking through the various antique and junk shops in Cullen itself.
-
"This was an amazing house to stay in."
The housekeeper cleaned the house to a very high standard and was really helpful throughout the week. The house was stocked with everything you could possibly need and then some! It was such a lovely big house, we had space to relax even with 12 people staying. The games room is a great extra and the outside space is lovely. Cullen is a beautiful place with a gorgeous harbour. The Royal Oak provided a delicious meal and the fish and chips from Linda’s were excellent. We would love to stay again if the occasion arises.
-
"Situation good for exploring surrounding area."
House ideal for our family. Walled garden area, fire pit and pool table great hit with everyone.
-
"We had a lovely holiday in this house."
It was very clean and very well equipped. The only downsides were only two toilets but we managed and knew that before we went. The other was the noise of the traffic during the night being on a main road. . It kept those in the bedrooms facing the main road awake at night. The listing in Sykes is out of date. There is now a lovely courtyard in the annexe. A real bonus. All in all a great house in a great location.
-
"This property was absolutely lovely, and in such a great location."
It is located very close to the beach, and close to the shops. We will certainly be back, and I can’t recommend it enough for others to book.
-
"Well equipped and comfortable."
Lots of space for a large family group. The house is ideally placed for exploring the Moray coast.
-
"Very pleased with everything about our stay."
Owner was accessible, house was clean and spacious. Another toilet wouldn't have gone amiss and the freezers needed defrosting but everything else was perfect. New outside area was ace especially because we had 2 wee dogs with us. Big boys enjoyed the pool room and was a good space to store the drink we had with us for Christmas. The small extra living area was fantastic. We had a lovely time.
-
"We booked for a surprise 30th birthday few days for my son."
On arrival we found a bottle of bubbly to help us celebrate. From initial booking to the end of holiday we were kept updated regarding holiday and Sykes couldn't have been more helpful throughout. Everything from cots and high chairs to entertainment equipment was provided. We have never stayed somewhere better equipped throughout the house.
-
"This is the second time we have been back to this house, we all had a great time."
Thanks again.
-
"Wonderful holiday this house is the perfect base to explore moray coast the house was very clean and perfect for a large family or group of friends lots of space and as the weather wasn't the best the added bonus of the separate games room was a blessing."
We cant praise this holiday home or housekeeping staff highly enough.
-
"What a lovely house and the extra touches were just amazing!"
I would book again for the welcome basket alone!!! We had our 2 very heavily pregnant friends with us and the facilities were great! Cullen itself is a great wee place also. We will be booking again and would be happy to bring the kids next time!!
-
"Housekeeper was helpful and very unobstusive."
Welcome pack a lovely, surprising bonus.
-
"Lovely weekend with all the family nice location plenty room will be going to book more of Sykes cottages in the future"
-
"Beautiful house, spotless and really well equipped."
Neighbours friendly, lovely location. Lots of good dog walk areas. Would like to re-visit, in the summer.
-
"Holiday home was lovely and Debbie the housekeeper was very helpful and available if needed."
.the welcome pack was a lovely touch and most welcome after the long drive..the kids loved the games room and there was ample space for every one..12 of us...only wee downside was the lack of a 3rd toilet and the stairs to the top floor were abit scary to navigate..but didnt put a dampner on our stay and would definatly return to such a lovely house in a beautiful location.
-
"Our second visit to this house and every bit as successful as last year."
Excellent support from Debbie the Housekeeper before and during our visit. A problem with the washing machine was quickly addressed and repaired. The welcome pack is very generous and was great appreciated. The house is spacious and well equipped - the only piece of equipment that we missed from last year was a cafetière. A great house for family holidays in a beautiful part of Scotland. I strongly recommend this property.
-
"We had a lovely time in Cullen."
Such a friendly town and such fabulous views. The coastline is truly spectacular. We've been twice this year and will likely return again.
-
"This house is extremely spacious and absolutely perfect for a family holiday (we were 7 adults,4 toddlers and a baby!"
). Very comfortable and nicely decorated. A great week. Thank you
-
"A superb location being so very close to the beach (it really is just a 5 min walk) and it is a fantastic beach to keep kids entertained as is sandy, but also rock pools and good pebbly area too - plus is very quiet even on a hot summers day as it’s so remote up there!"
Hours of entertainment there alone. (Bonus is the golf house on the beach, as has toilets and Sells drinks and food too). Great places to visit nearby - strathisla distillery in Keith was amazing for grown ups, Baxter’s in focahabers, Boyndie visitor centre (lovely food there - best Cullen Skink we had), Fyvie Castle (especially wonderful day there), Cullen Auld Kirk and a lovely walk up to the watchtower ruin overlooking Cullen bay. Fantastic ice cream shop in Cullen, best fish and chips were Portknockie. The house itself works well for so many people (6 adults and 6 children). Wish there were 3 toilets as I had thought (3rd bathroom is shower room only, no toilet on 2nd floor) but just 2 was an issue at times. House clean and The housekeeper and her mum and the owner were very helpful plus nice welcome pack on arrival. Shame the garden is inaccessible, as would have been good for the kids. A great week had by all though as Cullen is just so very lovely and we had great weather. Would love to stay again.
-
"We had a fab weeks holiday in this well equipped house."
Plenty parking and lovely patio to sit in the sun. Situated a two minute walk from a swing park and stunning beach at the bottom of the hill it was ideal for the grand kids ( and big kids!) plenty space in the house for us all to spread out 10/10 well done! Must thank the housekeeper Debbie who went above n beyond to return the items we left behind too.
-

About the location
CULLEN
Elgin 21 miles.
The Moray coastal town of Cullen is situated on Cullen Bay, an inlet of the Moray Firth, and is an extremely attractive town, originally built around the mouth of the Burn of Deskford. Modern Cullen comprises the delightful fishing village of Seatown and an ‘inland’ area, which stretches up an imposing main street from Seatown, underneath a spectacular viaduct. Although the wealth of Cullen was built on textiles in the 18th century, the town is best known for its fishing heritage, its name being given to a rich, creamy haddock soup known as Cullen Skink. Visitors can enjoy Cullen’s lovely sandy beach, the famous Ice Cream Shop, regarded by many as Scotland’s best ice cream parlour, a fine selection of shops and restaurants, and the historic city of Elgin is within driving distance.
