In the fifteenth century, around a small creek in the 600-million-year-old rocks on the Phingask Coast of Moray Firth in North-east Scotland, grew a small fishing community. Its identity became the settlement of Pitullie. A few hardy families battled with the North Sea to thrive on its harvest of fish. A self-sufficient entity evolved as the feudal "Land of the Pitullies", with the skills necessary to support village life. Thrift and recycling were " virtues" required by many of the poor. Door to the Shore is a modern day equivalent of Bothys made from upturned boats used by fisherfolk as housing.

Absolutely beautiful wee armadillo which was just far enough away from home to feel like a holiday. Great accommodation and a perfect spot for a swim and to watch the dolphins play.
Amazing place to stay with unbeatable views. If you like watching wildlife, local history, or enjoying a nice walk along the shore and countryside this is the stay for you. Very cozy quarters, it felt like grown-up camping. The hosts were very generous with information and hospitality. We will definitely be back!
We loved our stay at Susan’s ‘Door to the Shore’! We had beautiful weather and enjoyed mornings and evenings looking out at the water. An excellent place to rest after busy travel days. Susan is so welcoming and thought of every detail.
Gorgeous location, beautiful and comfortable cottage, with lots of lovely little touches. Everything you need for a great weekend.

Thank you for your review!.. great idea about the radio. You can listen to the radio in the smart tv but I agree a small separate radio would also be useful. I shall arrange that. I’m delighted you enjoyed your stay. Kind regards sue
