  We had a very helpful email from the owners the day before we arrived which was very informative and welcome.

  Although we had an enjoyable week at the Doocot and its proximity to to the beach is fantastic - there are some things that need to be addressed for the comfort of future visitors. With a weekly rental of £1k we would have expected a little more and doesn’t stand comparison with the more expensive property we stayed in the week before in the Cairngorms. More wine glasses required - there were 2 - one huge, 1 small. No tea pot. More small tables required in lounge - nowhere to put a mug/glass if using sofa in front of tv apart from on the floor. The TV needs to be properly connected so you can if you wish, watch mainstream tv easily - eg the Scotland v England game last week was inaccessible No visitor book. Presumably it is intended to plaster the wall around the fireplace? The fridge is too small, it will be difficult/impossible for many to access without getting on their hands and knees. It didn’t seem to us to keep things v cold - eg a bottle of wine had to go into the freezer. The property description needs to make it clear that there is no parking immediately by the property- this would be a significant problem for some; as would the very steep stairs. Both would be beyond some people

  The property's well situated with great views.

  Decoration and finish of the property inside leaves alot to be desired, with flaking paint on walls as well as evidence of what looks like mould in the dining room, caused by dampness in wall. Bathroom upstairs decorated in a hurry. Shower screen leaks onto what looks like MDF boarding which has swollen. Heating perfectly adequate with lots of hot water. Blinds in dining room don't shut properly so lack of privacy in this part of the house otherwise pretty good. Good selection of books and game's etc. Sorry to see at least 7 dead millipedes around the accommodation including 2 in the game's drawer !! I would like to note that the interior staircase was difficult for myself as I have mobility problems, I'm pleased to say I managed alright taking extra care. The carpet in the bunk room was stained and has seen better days. Outside area was pretty good. I didn't intend to go in with a crical eye but it could be so much better if issues were addressed and it was given the finish it deserves.

  Lovely comfy property, very clean, quiet estate.

  Short walk to town centre. Designated parking space was very useful. There was a lot of kitchen equipment, meaning it was difficult to find enough storage space for our own food. It was good to have a large fridge/freezer. We couldn’t find information about bin collection day, but spotted when neighbours put theirs out. Couldn’t get washing machine to work as instructions incomplete, so rang owner to find out. We do not have sky at home, and there were no instructions. Took a couple of days to work out how to use the various remotes, but never managed to get tv in bedroom to work. Enjoyed our stay very much, loved visiting the coastal villages and lovely beaches. Enjoyed the lack of traffic, easy and free parking, and lots of loos! Elgin cathedral very interesting. Would like to explore more of this coastline.

  A wonderful family break in the beautiful white cottage.

  Clear directions made it easy to reach the cottage and to access the keys. The cottage itself was very clean and comfortable.. and so, so peaceful! Plenty to do on the estate and surrounding areas, beautiful walks and wildlife practically in the garden. Roe deer, red squirrels, osprey.. and of course the super friendly and handsome cat (the biggest problem was keeping this friendly boy out of the cottage!). Everyone we bumped into on the estate were welcoming, helpful and full of information on the area.. and John's pottery is exquisite and well worth checking out. The only problem with our stay was a week just wasn't long enough to enjoy this wonderful little jewel.. although we plan to rectify that by returning next year, but for a fortnight this time.

  It was an amazing stay at Corner Cottage in Port Gordon.

  The cottage was definitely a home from home and so comfortable to stay in. Port Gordon itself does not have very much in it, a community café that runs a few days a week by volunteers and they were all just lovely. There is a Spar no pub, however Buckie is 2 mins in the car up the Road with a large Tesco and lots of stuff there. Beach is great and harbor for walks and enjoyed seeing the family of seals there. Great Access to all the Towns around spent time in Lossiemouth watching the jets which my son just loved. There is even a Car Charger out at the back of the house and we had an electric car so that was amazing. Thank you Tina the host who even returned my jumper I had left! HIGHLY RECROMMEND and we will definitely be back.
