P'lace of Glassaugh

Absolutely wonderful stay with David.

We were made welcome from the time we arrived and was he was there for any thing we needed . The accommodation had everything you needed and more, it made the holiday. It was in beautiful surroundings. We would go back again .

Lovely home from home, Dave was really welcoming and friendly.

Exceptional hospitality throughout our stay, beautiful spacious accommodation in an ideal location for exploring Aberdeenshire.

this rental is stunning,everything was perfect including our host Dave,in the words of General Macarthur "we shall return"

A lovely property to stay in.

Well equipped and well located to explore the Moray/Aberdeenshire coast and its hinterland. The owners live nearby and were very welcoming and supportive without being intrusive. The house was exceptionally clean and comfortable to stay in.

We had a fantastic time on our holiday the house was amazing and very clean.

Our hosts were welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us.The location was very peaceful and not too far from the village of Portsoy and Cullen with its lovely beach.Will definitely return in the near future

This was our second time visiting p'lace of glassaugh and we still love it.

The house has everything you could possibly need with an extremely well equipped kitchen. Beds are extremely comfortable house was clean and thr fire is always our favourite part. Dave and Yvonne are fantastic hosts who have created beautiful homes from home. We cant wait to get a chance to return again.

The home and the host were absolutely first class.

We had a fantastic week in this beautiful house and the host Yvonne and David were amazing.

A warm welcome awaited us on arrival at this lovely house.

A sanctuary of peace and quiet amongst rolling countryside but only a short distance from the lovely beach at nearby Sandend. Our hosts were there if you needed them but in no way were they intrusive. Will definitely return.

Perfect hidey hole.

The cottage worked well for 8 people. The beautiful beach within walking distance was a great place to hang out. Our hosts were friendly and helpful with local information. The garden at this cottage is a real bonus

High standard of cleanliness with top of the range facilities, would highly recommend for a family break.

Owner very hospitable and nearby should there be any questions. Have already booked for next year

This is an excellent property which is equipped with everything you could possibly need.

8 acres of ground include woodland walks and a badminton and football pitch. The wildlife is amazing, dolphins, deer, badgers just to mention some of the things we saw while staying. Then there’s the owners. They make this place exceptional! In an hour of need Dave and Yvonne could not have done more to support us, something we will always be grateful for.

First class property with everything you could possibly require in a peaceful well-maintained environment.

Ideally positioned to explore the coastline with the nicest and most helpful of owners you could hope to meet.

We had a lovely, relaxing stay in this wonderful property.

The proximity to the amazing Moray coast, and the absolute peace and quiet were both ideal.

This is a wonderful property with everything you could wish for to make your holiday the best experience possible.

Dave & Yvonne were such a lovely caring couple and came and explained everything to us personally. We had a fabulous break and would definitely go back. Thank You Dave & Yvonne.

Dave and Yvonne were very friendly and informative.

They were very nice and explained everything perfectly. The property is one of the best we have ever been to. The only thing that I can comment on is the TV situation. It would be nice to have TV in the bedrooms and the smart TV in the living area. That didn't make any difference to out stay. It was perfect a beautiful property and we will definitely be back looking forward to our next visit.

Great location for exploring and golfing.

Great hosts and cottage has 5 star luxury.

5 star and above in every respect.

Hosts, property, setting and local recommendations superb.

Absolutely amazing property well equipped throughout and great out door space.

fantastic friendly hosts

Dave and Yvonne are terrific, welcoming and helpful owners.

Property is first class.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely quiet location.

Great base to explore the Moray coast. Very welcoming and helpful owners nearby. Would definately recommend and hope to return in the future.

Fantastic property, location and hosts.

Very much a home from home with everything you need for a very comfortable stay. Even got a fabulous welcome pack. Area has great golf courses and restaurants. Recommend The Knowes in Macduff, this was recommended by the host. It is a must visit. Also great for visiting surrounding area including Buckie and Banff. Liked it so much rebooked immediately for September.

A truly beautiful cottage, clean, modern and welcoming.

Just what a busy family need to be able to leave their busy normal lives behind for a week.

This lovely property is light, spacious, modern and comes with an array of hi-tech equipment and fittings.

Digital controlled underfloor hearing throughout the main floor is very efficient. Fantastic kitchen , loved the whizzy magnet control on Neff hob and I really liked the Qooker boiling tap…in fact I might now get one. I did not use the steam oven but looked intriguing. Lots of very comfortable seating, great electric recliners. Enjoyed the outdoor seating area too. Great parking space. Even washing machine if you needed it. Everything was lovely and hosts Dave and Yvonne greeted us with a guided tour of facilities. Thanks for the generous welcome gifts too. Just outside Portsoy we soon got to know our way along the coast in both directions and different excursions every day. A big house (sleeps 8) so for our party of 3 very roomy and super comfortable. A lovely week and we were very lucky with dry bright weather.

Dave & Yvonne, excellent hosts very helpful when required yet so un-obtrusive.

A beautiful place beaches are incredible, lots to see and do. My only slight disappointment was that the house was not detached and looked directly into attached house.

Beautiful property and surroundings.

We had a lovely week with the host being most supportive.

Absolutely loved this property.

Every little detail had been thought about. And we were made to feel so welcome.

Fantastic and really comfortable house which is so well appointed.

Great location and huge shared gardens with lots of wildlife too. Loved our two-week stay and will definitely return.

A superb holiday home.

Extremely comfortable & clean. Quality furnishings & lovely welcome pack provided. Quiet location with wildlife on the doorstep. Good location for the many places to visit in the area. Wonderful, welcoming friendly hosts, where nothing is too much trouble. Suitable for family or friends getting together. Can highly recommend.

Great location for exploring, hill walkers will find lots to do in surrounding area.

Those seeking a less active holiday will find beautiful sea villages, with gorgeous beaches and friendly cafes, shops etc. Owners very hospitable, house set just outside Portsoy in spacious grounds, relaxing and private. House has open-plan kitchen, dining, lounge area - good for socialising after a busy day. Would return and would recommend.

One of the best placed we have stayed in .

Very clean . The owners were very kind ,frendly and informative . Lovly walks and not far to travel to other places . We took some beautiful photos and went to the best fish and chip shop in scotland as recomended by the owner .

Loved my stay.

It was unique, modern, and the owner was very nice. I also enjoyed the Sunday farmers market a walking distance from the cottage.

This beautiful house was perfect in every way.

Could not ask for anything better, everything you could need was provided. The hosts were outstanding, surprise gift of cheese, wine, fruit, oatcakes and chutney, made a perfect supper after our journey. What a fantastic peaceful and relaxing holiday we had. Will definitely be back.

Beautiful cottage and really friendly, helpful owner.

We would definitely stay again and would recommend to friends and family.

Thanks to Dave and Yvonne for their welcome, goodies and tips for our holiday.

We spent 2 fantastic weeks in this fabulous house eating and walking our way around this quiet and beautiful part of Scotland. Beautiful coastal walks from Cullen to Portknockie (fabulous chip shop you have to order from ask Dave). Walks from cullen to Sunnside beach (so secluded we had a wee pot of pasta to cook and had whole beach to ourselves) walk to FindlaterCastle. Circular walk round Duff house and walk from the house to Sandbeach then on the coastal path to Portsoy. Deffo visit Sutherlands of Portsoy for smoked salmon, ice cream in porstoy and Cullen, Lily's cafe for her cullen skink in Cullen, butchers in buckie, chinese in portsoy, chippie at portknockie. Be warned that you will get quickly used to all of the houses gadgets and am missing the quooker! thanks again Dave and Yvonne and hope to be back again.

What a fabulous home.

Stayed there over Christmas and everything you could possibly need was already there. Hosts were amazing and attentive, nothing was a problem for them Beautiful roomy house and so cosy especially when wood burning fire on. Highly recommend this home.

What a wonderful week we spent at this extremely comfortable property.

Everything was of the highest standard and the welcome gift was an additional surprise. Dave and Yvonne have provided accommodation that has absolutely everything you could possibly need .They are very pleasant and helpful hosts who make you feel at home. Thank you both so much.

A beautifully presented property in a lovely part of Scotland.

Extremely well appointed, really comfortable and spotlessly clean. Everything we could have wished for and more. We received a very warm welcome from Dave and Yvonne, nothing was too much trouble and the delicious welcome pack was very much appreciated. We have stayed in some great properties in this area; P’lace of Glasshaugh tops the lot.

Absolutely fabulous property well maintained and equipped David and Yvonne very welcoming will be returning great location

The House is stunning and in a lovely quiet spot.

It is luxurious with underfloor heating and gadgets galore. The log burner is amazing and it is very well equipped. Dave and Yvonne were wonderful hosts, very welcoming with lovely thoughtful touches to welcome us. They were on hand to assist with everything and could not have done more to make us feel at home. We will def return and this is a wonderful place to have a break.

On arrival our hosts gave us a very warm welcome and were always available if required.

The owners have tried to think of everything that would contribute to the making of a memorable holiday. From a kitchen with all the latest appliances and technology to a superb spacious open plan living area. Outside are several large lawn areas for children to run free and play safe. There's even a fairy Glen for the younger ones. The property itself is well situated with easy access to Portsoy or Cullen and lots of superb beaches. Would definitely recommend and return ourselves.

P’lace of Glassaugh is a 5 star property with 5 star hosts.

The house and the grounds are stunning and immaculately maintained and look so much better in real life. David and Yvonne were brilliant hosts and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great holiday. The house itself is well equipped with everything you could think of including a wide selection of board games and also has excellent Wi-Fi and the added bonus of a five a side football pitch and a badminton court. The location is idyllic - peaceful, quiet the perfect place to get away from it all and relax and unwind. However, there are plenty of things to do for young and old and places explore, not to mention the beautiful sandy beaches in the surrounding areas all within a short driving distance. We will definitely return and would highly recommend booking the P’lace of Glassaugh.

Everything about the property was fabulous.

This is also true of the owners who greeted us shortly after our arrival and said goodbye before we left. Our only criticism (not of the owners) was the extremely poor directions to the property given on the Sykes instructions. However, as the owners had contacted us prior to the start of our holiday we had their mobile number and they provided very clear, excellent directions. We would highly recommend this property

The house was even better than the photographs.

Very luxurious with everything you could need. The grounds were so lovely and peaceful and we were lucky enough with the weather, to enjoy them. Dave and Yvonne were fantastic hosts and went out of their way to ensure everything went smoothly.

Fabulous house, very comfortable and excellent location.

Hosts extremely helpful and always on hand if needed. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you.

Beautiful accommodation in a superb location within easy reach of many small coastal villages.

Owners were superb and the welcome pack with a pre set log fire was most appreciated. We will be back.

We had a lovely time away.

We booked as a family and found the house was perfect to come back to after a day of exploring. The property is very spacious and everything was to a high spec. the children enjoyed the forest fairy walk which was perfect for there age (3 years old). Unfortunately there was 2 storms during our week away but the fire made us always feel cosy. The hosts were fantastic and on hand if we needed them. Thankfully on speaking to them on departure they advised of road closures which would have effect our journey home. They saved us a big diversion and also pointed out a lovely place for lunch on our journey home.

Dave & Yvonne were the perfect hosts, I don't honestly think anyone who ever stays at this house could find a single fault with them.

They are so warm welcoming and nothing was too much. We absolutely loved staying at this stunning house, it has everything you could possibly want in a holiday house and more on top of that! The house is just a short stop away from Portsoy with some of the best ice cream were ever had. We went with the inlaws and our two little boys and the house suited all our ages giving the boys plenty of space to play but also downstairs bathroom and bedrooms for my inlaws who can't manage the stairs easily. Can't wait to get another chance to come back and stay here again with other family! Thank you dave and Yvonne x

The property was excellent and the owners couldn't have been more helpful.

The only thing which wasn't clear when booking was that the main upstairs bedroom was open to the stairs and then through to the kitchen and living area. There was no way of closing off the bedroom from the rest of the house and no means of separating the living and sleeping areas. This meant that, if someone was in bed upstairs, they had no real privacy from the rest of the house.

P’lace of Glassaugh is a top quality home from home, it has all the mod cons you could ever wish for.

It was super clean, and set in the beautiful county of Aberdeenshire

A wonderful holiday home!

Very high spec, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. Dave and Yvonne are warm and welcoming hosts with lots of knowledge of the surrounding area as well as recommendations for good places to eat. The location is excellent as there are lots of interesting places to visit. Hope to return for another visit to this lovely area. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic stay.

The P'lace of Glassaugh is situated between Cullen and portsoy, a perfect situation for travelling to different places. The owners Dave and Yvonne are a fantastic couple, on arriving at our accommodation they had left us a bottle of wine, cheese and crackers, they had went out their way to get gluten free crackers for my husband. The local restaurants were excellent and catered for coeliac (gluten free). The Station Hotels, Portsoy and Portknockie fish and chips were excellent. We visited a few National Trust and Historic Scotland sites, but please book with Historic Scotland in advance. Excellent Holiday

Our second year in Place of Glassaugh.

Superb accommodation as always. Owners are very welcoming & helpful. Great holiday. Will hopefully be back in 2022

The owners could not have been more helpful and kind.

The property is in a fantastic location and superb for exploring the area. The grounds were extensive with many activities on offer. The house itself is superb and very well designed.,

Luxurious rental, immaculate and comfortable.

Would highly reccomend

We had a brilliant holiday at P'lace of Glassaugh.

An outstanding property in an idyllic location. A gorgeous sandy beach approx 1 mile from the property and Portsoy village 5 minute drive away with plenty of amenities. Wish I was there now.

had a wonderful holiday.

Hosts were a lovely couple very friendly.Cottage .was great had everything we needed for a fab holiday.would go back again

Excellent, modern villa with all the mod cons available.

The owners were so helpful, friendly and most welcoming. Lots of extra touches in the fridge, in the kitchen & utility room cupboards that we could use if we had forgotten something from home. To top it all, there was a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a bottle of wine, oatcakes and a platter of mixed cheeses & fruit. Thank you so much Dave and Yvonne. The perfect hosts.

Great house in a beautiful location and the owners were lovely.

Had a fantastic week there with our family of 8.

P’lace of Glassaugh is a wonderful house.

Such a warm & friendly welcome from the hosts too. The gardens are ideal for children. Without any doubt, the best self catering we have ever stayed in. Superb!!!

It was a lovely place very stylish and well equipped.

Luckily we had some lovely sunshine so the kids played swingball in the garden. The area has some pretty beaches and you must pop to the icecream shop in Portsoy.

Dave and Yvonne were very accommodating, they went above and beyond.

Nothing was too much trouble. The house was very luxurious with high end appliances and an immaculate finish. Perfect location, far enough away to be private but close enough to be convenient. Anyone lucky enough to stay here will have an amazing holiday.

This is an amazing place to stay, warm and welcoming, ideal for any type of holiday, for us a peaceful holiday was the order of the day, For those who are looking for a good base for a walking holiday this would be ideal.

Can't praise the owners to highly they were so friendly and helpful. If you are considering a holiday here then it would be well worth it.

Excellent accommodation.

Layout suited our party with age ranges from 14 to 82. Modern open plan and well appointed. Owners Dave and Yvonne were about 80 yards away in their own home and always willing to help out with recommendations for eateries, visitor experiences etc. Loved it.

This property is SPECTACULAR.

Beautiful, comfortable and SUPER elegant. We loved our stay here. The owner's were so kind to make sure we understood how work all the amenities and how to contact them in case of a problem. I would move to Scotland just to live in this place. It is a palace!

Fantastic new property and very well maintained.

The owners who live nearby were excellent hosts and popped in a couple of times to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. Couldn’t have asked for more. Would thoroughly recommend!

Hosts are incredibly friendly and hospitality amazing.

So thoughtful, they live in a large property on the grounds so if you need anything they are available. Stunning open plan house.

Its a lovely new property with loads of room and modern facilities set in a quiet location with good wifi to keep young ones connected, nice garden areas and small football pitch.

The hosts Dave and Yvonne are so friendly and helpful giving great advice on places to visit for food etc. We visited many beaches lovely old fishing villages and a few inland towns and distilleries some only minutes away from location .We cant wait to return again in the future.

Our stay at P’lace of Glassaugh was simply brilliant.

We were so looking forward to staying at this beautiful cottage and and we were certainly not disappointed. Dave and Yvonne, our hosts, have an eye for detail and comfort which made our stay luxurious. From the high end quality kitchen, to the spacious bathrooms and the restful beds the cottage is beautifully presented with everything that you could want for a perfect stay. The underfloor heating and the wood fire also made our stay very cosy indeed. There is a lovely grassed area in front of the cottage for children to run around and an outdoor barbecue and seating area for relaxing in fine weather. The location of the cottage in a quiet rural setting was excellent, allowing us to visit many coastal villages, castles and points of interest as well as being within driving distance of Aviemore and the Cairngorms National Park with its spectacular scenery. We would highly recommend this cottage as a high end luxurious stay and we would love to stay here again.
