Cottage holiday rentals in Sandend

Second time we have stayed here, will make it a third sometime in the future. Great cottage and location

Simpathetically converted malt house in a peaceful setting. Good sized house with absolutely brilliant garden that had plenty space for the dogs to run around. Comfy beds with fresh linen, towels, robes and slippers. Well stocked kitchen with thoughtful welcome gift. Cozy lounge with plenty logs for the burner. Great little study space for those that still have to do a bit of work. Hot tub clean with non-slip rubber mats around it. Unfortunately, more careful attention needed from cleaning team in places, which was disappointing - for the money, perfection expected. Warning for fellow townies - go less than walking pace along the track to prevent the underside of your car getting scraped, unless you drive a land rover. Also, the bins are located at the end of the road, so stinky rubbish needs to go in the car - too far to carry it. We're not precious about our car but our son flatly refused to take it in his new car!

The best Airbnb we have ever stayed in. Beautiful location, cozy, relaxing and peaceful. Property had everything we needed. Stunning views from the Hot Tub. Host recommend booking a meal at local hotel and it was fantastic. Would highly recommend Brae Cottage.

The place is in a stunning location and host very helpfuo and that good we Re staying another week . David

A beautiful, spacious cottage. We spent a comfortable 4 days in the most idyllic setting, with the river Nairn at the end of the garden. The cottage has everything you could need, even including towels for the hot tub! The bedrooms are large and the beds extremely comfortable. The children loved the farm and looking at the animals. We will definitely return!

Such a beautiful little get away with so many little hidden gems nearby! Was quiet 24/7 and we loved the peace and the amount of sun the garden and hot tub got. Such a cosy cottage and made us feel at home straight away, worth the drive! Thank you for a lovely stay ❤️

We stayed here for a week with our grown children and their partners. Alasdair's cottage was perfect. It immediately felt cosy and comfortable. The games barn was a fun addition, and a great place to store our bikes when not in use. We got the hot tub going and once up to temperature it was easy enough to keep it ticking over for several evenings. The kitchen was well appointed, enough utensils, crockery and pans for us to cook each night. The cottage is next to open fields and farm land with quiet roads that lead to Cublin Forest. This was an amazing place to explore on foot and on bike, especially the peninsula that runs along the Findhorn Estuary and into the sea. Deserted beach and inquisitive seals. We also drove about an hour north to do some hiking at Glenmore in the Cairngorms. After our busy days adventuring it was always great to return to the cottage to relax and sleep soundly in the super size comfortable beds.

We had the most wonderful stay in Butlers cottage. The attention to detail and interior was incredibly thought out, we have never stayed in such a beautiful cottage. The fires were lit upon our arrival and ross was there to welcome us in and show us around. He was genuinely one of the nicest hosts we have met, you can tell he’s passionate about what he does by how incredibly presented everything was. The garden and grounds were stunning, plenty of routes to walk the dog and plenty of places to sit and take in the surroundings. The cottage is tucked away, very nice and private yet still easy to get to and close to the little shop! which we loved. We bought the homemade rolls kit and they were to die for, easy to make and ended up with loads of them to take home. We will without a doubt be back again soon, we didn’t want to leave!!!

Great host and loved the location and accommodation. Garden was great for the dogs and chilling with a beer and beautiful beach 5 minutes across the road. Locals and neighbours were very friendly Travelled to John ‘Groats, The Black Isle and Nairn during our stay. Highly recommend as either a base for touring or just a peaceful break in beautiful unspoilt surroundings.

This is a very comfortable, clean, homely place. It is airy but cosy. Lovely, roomy bedrooms with very comfortable beds and pristine bedding. Close to everything in Cromarty. A really relaxing home from home. Thank you Veronica, for a wonderful weekend

We had a wonderful stay at Bluefolds for my Dad's 70th. The view from the property is spectacular and ever changing, and you'd never get bored of that alone! Sue was a wonderful host, very welcoming and proactive. The accommodation has everything you could need for a stay there. Take your walking boots, make sure your pets are treated for ticks (as its on a sheep farm), and have an incredible time :)

We were so happy with our accommodation. It exceeded our expectations. Great location, beautiful views an all round fantastic place. Bea was a great host, very responsive and had left some helpful reviews of things to do and places to go. We loved it 🥰

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was adorable. Graham and Sharon were there for any questions we had and left us some tasty scones for our arrival. We would definitely stay again.

Really lovely and well equipped little cottage in a beautiful area of the world. Very comfortable bed. The dogs loved the enclosed garden. Handy EV charger at the front. Caroline was very responsive. Highly recommended overall.

If you are hesitating about booking here - don’t! The number of repeat bookings tells you all you need to know. A really beautiful cottage on the Moray coast. Kismul is comfortable and well equipped for family holidays as well as being in a great location.

Very comfortable cottage in peaceful location yet only a couple of minutes walk from the main street of Braemar.

We had a wonderful stay! The house is very quaint, cozy & possibly the cleanest Airbnb we have ever stayed in. It was comfortable, modern in an appropriate way without taking away from the historic charm. So close to walk to the breakfast place on the square, just a few feet from the beach & port with a lovely view just outside of the Viaduct one way & the sea the other way. All the conveniences you could need in the kitchen plus a few yummy snacks. Only positive thoughts to share! It was perfect for our time in Cullen!

The Old Police House is something special. Warm, homely, very clean, well equipped and in a fantastic location in the beautiful harbour village of Portsoy. The Old Police House felt like home from home. As soon as you walk through the door for the first time, the feeling of 'welcome' grabs you. It's a great base to explore the local area. The village of Portsoy has all of the shops that you'll need. Wendy (the host) was lovely and very responsive. The welcome pack included a complimentary bottle of Prosecco—beyond perfect, and we were so grateful—a lovely touch. In a nutshell. A perfect house in a perfect village with perfect surroundings - walks and beaches.

Had a wonderful stay here! This is the second time I've stayed at Shellys property and it was as beautiful and clean as the first time. Loved the outdoor space, the views are stunning. Everything was so clean and we love the decor. Thanks again for another unforgettable stay! I even saw orcas for the first time just a minute from the property, unreal!

Loved staying in the cottage in Portsoy, it was a cold, but sunny with showers weekend so the arga warmed the kitchen/dinning room and the house. Great location with the historic harbour, coastal works, dinner at Spire and award winning ice cream shops in Portsoy and Cullen.

Cottage was stunning and in such a good location for all the distilleries we were visiting. The place was spotless and had everything you’d need for your stay. Karen passed her contact number but to be honest she had a comprehensive information book with all the local activities. We travelled to visit the local distilleries and GlenAllachie is about a two minute walk from the cottage. We had lovely weather so sat outside on the garden furniture and only saw about two cars pass and a handful of tourists. It really was quiet and relaxing and I’d have no hesitation in recommending the cottage. I’ll certainly be booking again when I’m next up. It’s a wee gem!!!! Thanks Karen

What a beautiful cottage in a beautiful part of the world! Pauline & Gordon are such great hosts and provide plenty of recommendations locally. Highly recommend this wonderful property if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing and central base to explore Aberdeenshire!

Had a wonderful time staying with Jane. The house is centrally located in Elgin and easy to navigate the Murray coastline where we were playing golf. The house was perfect for our requirements and very close to restaurants and watering holes which made the stay all the more enjoyable. Would thoroughly recommend as a place to stay for those who wish to stay in and about Elgin.

Rachel's place was lovely and homely. Lots of space inside and out. Within easy driving distance of lots of speyside.
