  • "Lovely cosy cottage."

    Very well equipped. Very welcoming and full instructions for all appliances. Surprise welcome pack on arrival. A beautiful little town with fabulous views out to sea at every turn. Saw dolphins and a roe deer down by the shore. Local fish and chip shop highly recommended. Large Tesco store ten minutes car journey to Buckie. Walked along coastal path to nearby Cullen.

    Lots of space for everyone and really comfy beds. Location was excellent, was lovely to be so close to the coast and be able to walk to Cullen. We all had a fantastic time and would highly recommend.

  • "Beautiful, cosy and well equipped cottage."

    Had everything you need for a relaxing base from which to explore the beautiful surroundings. It's clearly been very well looked after and thought put into the decorating and furnishing. The village is lovely, friendly locals and great amenities. We were all sad to leave.

  • "What a fantastic holiday we had."

    Cottage was lovely and in the perfect location. Full kitchen which allowed us to have proper meals together. Sleeping comfort was exceptional, along time since I have slept quite so soundly! The village was very friendly with so much to do and see. I live in the local area but this place enabled me to have my whole family under one roof and it felt like a family home.

    Thanks so much for the fabulous review. We love visiting ourselves too because of the location, but most of all to enjoy the lovely friendly village of Portknockie. Property Owner

    Shame they only allow 1 dog as I have 3 and had to leave 2 at home along with my daughter

    Thanks for your review, we will look into the issue you raise. Property Owner

  • "Very comfortable cottage with everything you need for your holiday."

    Great quality bedding and fittings, excellent shower and very comfortable bed. We only used the ground floor rooms but upstairs was nice and bright. Some of the best fish and chips and Chinese takeaway we have ever had, both a short walk away! Great walks, right from the door. We would look to rent this cottage again if we were visiting the area.

    We loved our stay so much that we will definitely be back. The kids loved it that much that they want to move there. Thank you for an excellent stay in your lovely cottage, it made our week in the north of Scotland extra special.

    The local area is lovely and was easily accessible from the property. House was lovely and clean and there was plenty of everything that we needed. I’d heartily recommend this property to anyone looking for a place to stay in the area.

  • "Lovely cottage furnished to a high standard with everything you could need."

    Having the sea at the end of the street makes this the ideal location. Portnockie is a charming wee village and the beach at nearby Cullin is stunning. Had the most relaxing holiday and would highly recommend it.

  • "We had a really lovely break at the cottage."

    First few days had wild weather but it was fine as we knew we were heading back to a cosy house where we would be able to relax and get warm. Had everything we could need, bright airy bedrooms and comfy beds. Situation was excellent for visiting all the lovely villages along the coast and once the weather cheered up we had lovely evening walks to the harbour and to Bow Fiddle Rock. Plenty places round about for lunch, coffee and cake. Cullen was lovely for the gallery, antique shop and gift shops and once weather was fine we could walk to it. Thoroughly enjoyed our time in Portknockie at the cottage and are planning to head back soon.

    Really happy to hear that you had such a pleasant stay in our favourite place, and we very much appreciate the feedback. Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely week in Lille Norge Huus, which is very well appointed with cosy beds, gorgeously soft towels, a very comfortable living room and excellent kitchen facilities."

    Portknockie is situated on a beautiful coastline and the house is a perfect base for touring the local area, both by foot and by car/bike. There are also excellent restaurants and cafes within a 10 mile radius. A couple of recommendations for the file would be some info on regulating the heating and also on operating the TV.

  • "This is a beautifully furnished cosy cottage, we felt very at home there for the week."

    Plenty of room for up to 6 to stay. The kitchen was well appointed and I really appreciated that there was plenty of storage space and a large fridge and freezer. Lovely bedding and soft cosy towels - a great touch The TV was a little hard to navigate and we did miss standard freeview style channels - but Netflix and smart TV apps are available and are easily navigable if that’s your thing. My only feedback would be that a full length mirror somewhere in the property would be useful. There’s nothing else that was missing though. Had a really lovely stay and would absolutely recommend, and would visit again.

    Many thanks for your lovely comments, we agree a full length mirror would be a useful addition and will address next time we are there. Property Owner

The property

Resting on the Scottish coast in the seaside village of Portknockie is this wonderful semi-detached house, 4 Gordon Street.

This delightful fisherman's cottage showcases a pastel blue exterior and roadside parking, along with having easy access to many of Moray's stunning coastal towns, making for a superb holiday home for a group of six.

After taking in the surrounding sea breeze, venture inside the idyllic dwelling to find yourself in an inviting sitting room; kick off your shoes and unwind on the sofas in front of the warm woodburning stove and TV.

The kitchen is fitted with all the essentials needed to rustle up those home-cooked favourites, to be enjoyed at the close-by dining table with all the family.

The ground floor is home to a wonderful king-size bedroom for you to rest your head in after a day filled with coastal walks; the bedroom also benefits from being close to a bathroom with a bath and shower over.

Head upstairs to find two more bedrooms, one being a double and the other being a spacious twin room - perfect for the kids!

After a well-deserved rest, spend the day exploring the clifftop village of Portknockie with its handful of friendly pubs, convenience store and award-winning Portknockie Fish and Chip Shop a stone’s throw away; the village is also home to a stunning harbour and open-air paddling pool, as well as numerous walking trails to embark on, including the Portknockie cliffs path where you can view the famed Bow Fiddle Rock.

Travel west to Findochty via the Coastal Trail and catch the sun's rays on Findochty Beach; before continuing on to the town of Buckie where you can find a fantastic golf club, Heritage Centre, and harbour.

Travel further along the coast to the town of Elgin and tour the fascinating Elgin and Moray Motor Museums, marvel at the historic landmark of Lady Hill and enjoy a riverside picnic at Cooper Park.

Make the most of Moray's coastline, where if you’re lucky you may be able to spot the Moray Firth dolphins which frequent the shores and visit the picture-postcard settlements of Banff, Lossiemouth and Cullen where a plethora of activities for all ages are waiting to be experienced.

There is also the popular WDC Scottish Dolphin Centre, where you can visit the observation hut with live web cameras and film screenings.

For a memorable stay in Moray, in a charming setting, choose 4 Gordon Street.
