The cottage was so lovely, cosy and comfortable and plenty of room. Everything we needed, having the fire was amazing and being able to sit on the bench outside in the morning with a cup of coffee and watching that stunning view was just amazing. There was plenty to do in the surrounding area, lots of lovely places to eat and incredible wildlife to see - we saw lots and lots of dolphins and seals. Thank you so much Fiona!

5 The Hythe is an excellent place for a holiday or short break. The house is super comfortable and very well equipped, the location is wonderful - the little beach out front feels very intimate and quite lovely, and the little cottages surrounding very authentically community. Findochty is surrounded by wonderful coast and countryside. I couldn’t fault it and will definitely go back.
The view from the main bedroom. The little bird is a very apt ornament because, excitingly, there are curlews on the beach!

We didnt meet the host, however, we had several text messages giving us information & asking what we wanted to know. Our communications were dealt with promptly & efficiently.The property was in extremely good order, well furnished, warm & comfortable & its position was amazing - exactly like the photos on the website. It had virtually everything we could possibly need during our stay.
On arrival, during a storm, the waves were amazing!

The BeachCottage was well kept, clean, functional, and in a great location. Fiona was so easy to work with and addressed my concerns quickly. You could see the beach from the house-beautiful! The bedrooms are on the upper floor and there are also stairs out to the patio area. Not a problem but could be if you were older with mobility issues. Overall a wonderful property, owner and location. Thank you for a magical stay in Scotland.
