Stephanie
Great central base for Elgin, Lossiemouth and other areas. Got in plenty of exploring. We found the beds very hard and uncomfortable, so for this reason we possibly wouldn't come back again unless a mattress topper was added. Otherwise a lovely house with all that you need.

Very handy for all the local facilities and for travelling around visiting the area. The flat was comfortable & had all that was necessary for our stay. I do feel though that if it was a family staying & doing more cooking the kitchen could do with a few more utensils & bowls/jugs but it was perfectly adequate for us. I'd definitely, happily stay there again

It was clean and modern. It was in an ideal location and we could always find somewhere to park a little further along the street. When we next go to Elgin we are extremely likely to book this cottage again.
