About this property

The Boathouse has fantastic country views near spectacular coastal walks

Relax in the upstairs lounge enjoying the open country views, the wildlife on the window ledge and spectacular sunsets. Sleep snugly in the comfortable beds and dream sweetly in the silence of a Aberdeenshire country night. Take a short walk to Catterline to see the seals and enjoy a meal and a pint of real ale at the Creel Inn. Visit Fowlsheugh RSPB reserve and spot the puffins amongst the thousands of guillemots and razorbills.

Super Aufenthalt
Das Boathouse war sehr gemütlich und top gepflegt. Alles funktionierte einwandfrei. Die Gastleute waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, für jede Frage erreichbar. Ein Auto ist bei der Lage sicher von Vorteil. Die Gegend ist wunderschön, reiche Tierwelt.

Absolutely beautiful place to stay! Very clean and well stocked with all the supplies needed for multiple people to stay comfortably. Great views for the main room. A very short drive to the main town.

Nice place to stay to discover the Scottish coastline
this is a very nice house wich provides you with everything you need. In case something is missing the owners are living just next to it and are very responsive, even though we never met them in person. The only downside is the master-bed, which is for two adults definitly too small (except you are on a honeymoon ;-)

We are husband and wife committed to provide a pleasant home from home experience at attractive rates per person per night.

Why they chose this property

We are in an area which is ideal for walking or cycling to breathe in the cool country air. The beauty of the clifftop Catterline village is within walking distance, as is the RSPB nature reserve at Fowlsheugh where you can see around 130,000 seabirds during nesting season. Puffins, dolphins and the occasional minke whale may also be spotted. The historic ruins of Dunnotar castle are a short drive away just before Stonehaven. Heading south is the land of Lewis Grassic Gibbon at Arbuthnott and beyond that one of the most beautiful beaches in Scotland at St Cyrus

What makes this property unique

Spectacular sunsets view from the upper level living room. Enjoy watching the horses exercising in the next door riding arena.
