Memorable stay in this delightful retreat

Review Submitted: 21 November 2012 Date of Stay: October 2012
We booked one of the cottages for half term this Autumn. Easy distance from Aberdeen airport but felt that we were really tucked away from hectic life. The cottage was immaculate and spacious.

Whilst contemporary in its style, it still retains a cosy feel - the warmth from the fire in the living room when we set the logs was so welcoming after days walking in the countryside or by the sea.

We love good food and cooking and found that the kitchen was well laid out, well equipped and easy to use. We shopped in Banff - a lovely, friendly town with straightforward shops to keep you stocked throughout your stay.

The bedrooms were clean and well laid out - storage, even with all the winter clothing, was good. The main bedroom has a basin which was helpful given that there is only one bathroom - saved on any queuing to brush teeth!

Overall I would very happily recommend this lovely place - great for friends over Hogmanay I am sure but I am sure that it is also great in the summer.

The owners were around but not intrusive - helpful and obviously keen to make sure everything is there for you.

Enjoy your stay!!

Everything was catered for.

Review Submitted: 17 January 2012 Date of Stay: August 2011
"Just got home after spending a week in "The Owl". The only reason we decided to visit Scotland was that my brother-in-law married a Scottish lass and we felt duty-bound to visit. To be honest, I wasn't initially keen on "wasting" my prized annual leave on somewhere so cold and barren.

It just goes to show what ignorance can do. My wife, two young children and I, have just had a magical time! We saw some beautiful countryside, met warm, wonderful people, ate huge helpings of delicious food, felt the history and drank the whisky! But the thing that topped it all off for me was the quality of the accommodation. Everything was catered for and we felt really at home immediately. Absolutely first class...so much so we actually feel as if we've cheated a bit for paying so little!

If you're wondering about a holiday in Scotland and want to get away from the touristy haggis-and-shortbread bits, come here. It's wonderful..."

A white Christmas

Review Submitted: 17 January 2012 Date of Stay: December 2010
"Thanks for a wonderful Christmas. The cottage was perfect down to the smallest detail. The setting was ideal for a restful recharge of the batteries, and you even managed the magic of a "White Christmas".

The entire holiday was a magical experience for us both. We have recommended the cottages to everyone we know. There were not any negatives. Perfect, perfect, perfect !!! We will be back."
