I arrived in the middle of Storm Amy and was cold and wet. I was so grateful for the heating being on in the cottage! It was October so it was cold anyway and I found the heating to be easy to operate. I am ill with anaemia so I was really feeling the cold and there was one day the heating hadn't come on. Michael was very quick to come round and help me out, less than 10 mins after I texted him. The cottage has most of the things you need for a week's stay, and there is a Spar shop in the village for top up shop. The owners had left some tea, coffee, milk and freshly baked bread which I thought was a lovely touch. Portknockie is on a bus route and if you are gluten free, you might need to go into Buckie or Cullen to the Co Op for gluten free bread etc. Lots of lovely walks by the sea and up to the viewpoint looking towards Cullen.It was lovely to come back to the nice cosy cottage in Portknockie and settle in for the evening though.
