The property

Portknockie Cottage is a stylish retreat set within the attractive seaside village of Portknockie in Moray.

Offering a welcoming base for couples or small groups looking to enjoy a relaxed break by the coast, positioned close to local amenities, this well-kept property allows guests to experience village life while being perfectly placed for exploring the dramatic shoreline with the coast and harbour a short stroll away and the surrounding countryside ready to explore.

Inside, the cottage features a comfortable sitting room, ideal for unwinding after a day spent outdoors.

The spacious kitchen and dining area are well arranged for preparing and sharing meals together, whether enjoying a leisurely breakfast or an evening in after exploring the area.

Two neatly furnished bedrooms offer comfortable sleeping arrangements, a small double and a super-king-size bed to rest and rejuvenate, while the accommodation is completed by a family bathroom with a bath and shower over, along with a useful cloakroom.

Outside, roadside parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

The cottage’s central location means you are just a short walk from local shops and a welcoming village pub, making it easy to pick up essentials or enjoy a relaxed meal close to home.

Portknockie itself is known for its striking harbour (just a few steps away from your doorstep), cliff-top walks and access to the Moray Firth Coastal Trail, which offers excellent walking opportunities with sweeping sea views.

A short drive brings you to the neighbouring village of Findochty, where you can stroll around the picturesque harbour and watch the boats come and go.

The nearby town of Cullen is home to a long sandy beach and is famous for Cullen Skink, a local speciality well worth sampling.

Further afield, Buckie provides a wider range of shops, cafés and leisure facilities, while the historic town of Elgin offers attractions such as Elgin Cathedral, museums and riverside walks along the River Lossie.

Whisky enthusiasts will also find several renowned distilleries within easy reach, offering tours and tastings.

Portknockie Cottage offers a well-placed and inviting base for discovering the charm, scenery and rich heritage of Moray’s beautiful coastline.
