The beautiful fishing village of Portknockie occupies a cliff
top, overlooking the Moray Firth in North East Scotland, and
is a beautiful destination for your next self-catering cottage
holiday. Stunning Iron Age remains can be seen today, indicating
this historic village's heritage. During the 19th century the
village became a significant fishing port. Many boats used at this
port were designed in the village between 1883 and 1905. Five small
boats are used now for fishing, reaping local creels and
mackerel.

calm secretive coves to explore, ideal for all ages. Bow Fiddle
Rock; the #1 location to visit, enlightens every visitor with its

Dolphins elegantly dancing within the water beneath. With perfect
