Cottage holiday rentals in Gardenstown

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

Amazing stay! The cottage was very cosy, looked like the photos and we felt right at home. Loved having the wood burner in the evenings while having dinner and chatting the night away!

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!!!

What a cracking location. We were very comfortable and had a great few days exploring the area. Jackie was a kind and considerate host. Friendly pub a short walk from the cottage next to the harbour.

Lovely cottage with pretty bedrooms and a generous garden with barbecue and seating. Tranquil setting very convenient for Brodie Castle and close to Findhorn and the beach. We arrived late and had trouble figuring out how to use the the wifi and get hot water, but that was probably down to our tiredness rather than anything else. Would happily stay here again and may well do so if Jeana will have us back.

Çalums place was neatly tucked away in the Cairngorms what a beautiful place cute and quaint and such a lovely gesture to leave special coffee pods condiments local Scottish chocolates and wine such a lovely little place with room to rest recover from climbing hiking running loved discovering Nethy cafe nearby with friendly staff and angie the owner so lovely thanks Calum your place was wonderful

beautiful surroundings, vociferous Cookoo, for deer in the garden. great accommodation for 4 adults

Lovely cottage! Scenery is fantastic and the house has everything you need. Kids loved the chickens and especially loved the playroom.

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 🥰

Great place to stay, just off the high street, but very peaceful & has parking. Italian Coffee shop min or two walk away, coop, art gallery & museum, & great low level walks in the Anagach Woods close by. Place very clean & perfect base to explore on foot or in the car.

This was a lovely stay, one that will be remembered for a lifetime thanks to Gillian's local recommendations (supplied in a clipboard). In addition, she was kind enough to allow us leave our luggages until our ferry's departure. The cottage looked the same as in photos but so far as its cleanness is concerned everything is even better. This indeed is a safe haven located in the pulping heart of the city. Thanks again!

The Bothy is a great place from which to explore the local area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would recommend.

We stayed at Bell View Cottage for just one night, but if we had known how lovely both the cottage and Gardenstown were, we definitely would have stayed longer. There were three of us, and the fold-out bed in the living room worked perfectly alongside the bedroom setup. The cottage is beautifully decorated with a modern interior and has everything you might need. It was also spotlessly clean. We were able to load and unload the car right next to the church, and parking was available just a short walk down the hill. We had a delicious dinner at the Garden Arms Hotel and really enjoyed the local atmosphere. Communication with Shelly was excellent—she responded very quickly and was available for any questions throughout our stay. We highly recommend this accommodation and hope to return for a longer visit next time.

Kath was a fantastic host one of the best we have experienced. She recommended a fantastic restaurant which we went to on the Friday evening loved it, thank you so much Kath, thank you for being an amazing host. The eggs and jam were very good too, We hopefully see you again Denise , tris and Buddy the dog. x

We had the most amazing time! The home was wonderful and what a great little town. We loved all the drivable places to visit, and walking around town.

What a great place to stay. The hosts were wonderful and communicative. When we had a slight problem with the fire. they came and helped immediately. As soon as we entered, felt right at home, and then extended an extra night. Everything is in the pictures and it’s actually better. Great location for just walking and being at one with nature, even in the rain. One suggestion is the TV is very small and was challenging to watch TV. I think it would add a little bit more for a bigger TV specially on rainy days.

Great stay, great location, everything we needed. We recommend a walk or two on the Speyside Way, Mash Tun in Aberlou is a great place to refuel, as is the Highlander right across from the cottage. And very nice of Michelle to provide a wee jug of whisky in the cottage

Peppermill Cottage is a real gem of a find. Whitehills and the surrounding local villages are absolutely gorgeous. Add to this miles upon miles of coastline and countryside right on the doorstep and you're in for a treat. The cottage itself is well equipped and was squeaky clean for our arrival. We loved the sunny ourdoor space for lazy mornings with a coffee before heading out. Alison was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Couldn't ask for more!

This has to be my favourite rental yet! The window seat looking over Findhorn Bay was the most relaxing place to sip my morning coffee and watch the water. The cottage is beautifully decorated with gorgeous furnishings, ten bathrooms filled with the most heavenly scented toiletries and a welcome pack which is way beyond anything I have ever had in all of my rentals. I cannot wait to come back!!

What a fantastic please to stay. The cottage was clean and cosy and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds super comfy.. The location is peaceful and quiet ( the neighbouring road is close but you cannot hear the very infrequently passing cars). Plenty of space for 8 people. The scenery around the cottage is beautiful.
