We had a perfect time at the fishermans cottage. Excellent communication throughout. The perfect place to take yourself away from the noise of the city.
This was the most beautiful spot. The beach and views are incredible. The house was charming, comfortable, clean, well stocked. The fireplace was perfect as were the fun boardgames and movies. Absolutely loved everything here.
Absolutely beautiful throughout!Kate was great with clear communication, letting us know instructions and parking arrangements in advance of our stay.A charming and quirky little cottage with a cute bath!! Well equipped, homely and snug with the log burner.. Enjoyed every minute of our stay, would highly recommend.
A beautiful wee cottage, exactly like the photos but of course so much more because of its location. The kitchen is well organised, the bathroom spotless and the host is lovely. A relaxing place to stay. I loved the attic room with the little window giving a view to the sea and space to do some yoga.
We felt perfectly at home and at ease in this tastefully decorated and beautifully furnished cosy cottage. The sea views were delightful and lying in bed listening to the waves was bliss.
Really enjoyed our stay at Wee House in Pennan - such a beautiful place. Whether you're staying local or going off to explore the area, coming back to the house is just lovely. So lovely to relax in the evening with a fire going and then wake up to the sound of the waves. It's honestly such a gem xxxxx

Such a stunning unique place. The ‘wee house’ was just what we hoped it would be -cosy, warm, safe and everything you need. Set in such a picturesque spot and close to other stunning bays as well. The view out several windows is better than you could dream of!
This is one of the most beautiful and charming places I've ever stayed! Pennan is beyond compare in its grace, allowing you to reconnect with the world, taking a break from it.The cottage is superb, perfect in every corner. I can't believe how you can become attached to a place in just one night, but that's what we felt: a home away from home.It has everything you need, cared for by someone who cares, where everything is thoughtful and considered. Kate was an exceptional host and a pleasure to talk to!Definitely a comeback place
Great , small but cosy , cottage with great communication throughout by the host. We all chilled out over the few days we spent in Pennan.I would recommend the Coastal Cuppies Harbour kiosk-tea and cake. We would like to return
Truly one of the best places we've ever stayed. The cottage is extremely cozy and Kate thought of everything to make it so you don't want or have to leave. Pennan is the place to stay if you're looking for peace and quiet. Simply a wonderful experience all around.

About the host
Hosted by Kate Henderson
I am from nearby Aberdeen, where I live and work full time. I enjoy travelling and I have visited some wonderful places in the world and appreciate good hospitality. I hope that guests who come to The Wee House will enjoy a fantastic holiday in this little part of the world.
Why they chose this property
I have been visiting Pennan for a number of years as my parents own a holiday home here too. I bought The Wee House in 2014 and it has been lovingly restored into a beautiful seaside home - just the right size for two people! My boyfriend travels extensively for his job so its wonderful to have a getaway just an hour away when he is in Scotland.
