36 Sandend Village

Thanks for another great holiday.

Hope to be back soon.

A beautiful cottage in a beautiful spot.

It has everything you need for a comfortable stay, whatever the weather. All furnishings up to a modern standard.

Beautifully appointed cottage very tastefully converted.

Beds very comfortable! Weather not very agreeable but cottage cosy with the wood burning stove. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at No 36

Lovely cottage, beautifully decorated and very clean and comfortable.

Very helpful property owner who helped quickly when we encountered something we needed help with.

Fantastic place, very comfortable and well equipped.

Would love to visit again and will recommend to friends and family. Lovely location and beautiful beach. Lots of places to visit a short drive away.

Second visit to No 36 and had another great holiday.

The cottage is very comfortable, with everything you could possibly want for a perfect break and situated in a lovely peaceful village. It is the perfect location to recharge the batteries, take walks along the beautiful beach or sit at the harbour and watch the wonderful diving gannets. Really didn’t want to leave. We would highly recommend and hope to return.

No hairdryer but otherwise well equipped We were unfortunate with the weather and the Cottage was quite cold at times unable to adjust the heating

A lovely, quiet, comfortable cottage located in the peaceful village of Sandend.

Definitely a place that lets you chill and recharge the batteries. Would highly recommend.

The cottage was beautifully presented, extremely comfortable and a perfect place to get away from it all.

The house is very comfortable and modern and family-friendly.

And Sandend is a lovely small village!

Fantastic cottage.

Great location. Really appreciated the coffee and prosecco. Everything was five star. Worth a line item in the guide book about where to recycle glass... Thanks for stay.

36 Sandend is a lovely well appointed holiday home.

It has everything you could possibly need. There is a folder providing operating instructions for all appliances. The furniture and furnishings are top class and the beds are very comfortable. It is situated in a lovely village with a lovely beach. Surf lessons are available. The whole of the Aberdeenshire coast in this area is lovely with many traditional fishing villages to visit. Also many golf courses to take advantage of. A great holiday.

The cottage was just perfect for our week away.

So well equipped and beautifully finished to very high standards.

We really enjoyed the stay.

With 6 of us the small capacity for hot water was a bit of a nuisance but we just had to work around it. We were glad of the information in the folder about this and we just adjusted when we had showers. One of our party fell quite badly on the stairs as they are very slippy as well as being small with the age of the property. Maybe a hand rail at the bottom on both sides would help. Otherwise, we noticed there isn’t much privacy when using the bathroom with people in the kitchen. Perhaps an alternative door would create a sound barrier there. We would like to have been able to open ground floor windows for air flow but there were no window keys which we presumed was for security. The battery on the Velux controller in the kitchen ran out twice. We had our own compatible charger but others may not. If the window was left open when the battery went that could be problematic. Overall we thought the cottage was lovely and the design made the most of the space. We would definitely recommend it and visit again.

Wonderful cottage that is thoughtfully and well designed and great family accommodation.

Owner was super helpful and nice touches like milk etc plus a nice bottle of Prosecco to toast the holiday. The property couldn’t be better placed with many days we didn’t leave Sandend at all. Outside furniture was great with a few breakfasts and lunches outside.

Wonderful cottage in a great location.

Such a clever use of space inside and lovely fittings. Highly recommend for a family trip

Lovely place, both the house and the village.

Full of character and we loved wandering out to the beach/harbour/courtyard with our cup of tea. It’s quite compact because of the nature of the cottages - that’s it’s charm - but they’ve made the most of the space. Would be cosy with 6 people in it, especially if they were all adults.

Stunning cottage in a fabulous location!

We spent the week rockpooling, surfing, clifftop walking, dolphin/whale watching and forest exploring, but we could easily have filled another week. The only 'downside' (according to our children) was the lack of garden... But the beach and harbour practically on the doorstep more than made up for it. This has made the top spot in our family for holiday cottages to date. When we return to Aberdeenshire, we will definitely book here again!

Loved the location and the cottage itself.

Cottage was so wonderfully considered in its design and decor. Was everything we needed for a wonderful family holiday. Would love to return again in future.

We had such a brilliant stay in this cottage.

Its beautiful and equipped with everything you need. In such a wonderful location right beside harbour and beach. Our kids had the best time and we will definitely come back. Can't recommend highly enough!

We has a fantastic time at this property.

A small hoover would have been more practical than a broom for keeping the house clean during the week, otherwise we found the property well equipped.

We loved our stay in this beautiful cottage.

It is incredibly well equipped and the beds and bedding are luxurious. Everything has been thought of from the flasks for hot drinks to picnic basket for the beach so all Scottish weather catered for! The wood burner was lovely to cosy up beside after a day on the beach. Thank you for a wonderful stay and we will be back again soon.

feel that the owner needs to let the customer control the heating and hot water and not for them to have control over times and temperature via remote means.

although very modern thought it was a quite cold and clinical.

A very unique location beautiful and natural environment!

The cottage was absolutely gorgeous.

Finished to a very high standard and contained everything you could possibly need for cooking, picnics, board games/books for staying home and lots of storage in all rooms too. A lot of thought has gone into the finer touches and quality. Beds were very comfortable and the cottage was spacious and well-appointed for a family. Parking was not a problem at any time too (with kids we know that can sometimes be issue on holidays). Sandend itself is such a stunning place, absolutely beautiful. It has to be one of the lovelist places we have ever been. Perfect surfing for us and the children and amazing evening walks on the beach. Great place with various local paths for walks. Portsoy was only a 5 min drive to pick up any supplies from supermarket and also does the best ice cream! We really couldn't recommend this place enough and will definitely be back.

The cottage was lovely, it had everything you need and more.

The setting was beautiful, no pub, no shops, some may find this inconvenient bit it was not far to a local supermarket, it was just what we wanted. The beach was absolutely outstanding. To top it all the sun shone for us every day.

It was a super cottage, with a fabulous location, couldn’t have asked for anything better.

The Cottage was finished to a very high standard, I would even say a standard of perfection.

We didn`t need to use the wood burner as the weather was very warm. Unusual for Scotland. The welcome pack was a great surprise. Thank you for that. Can`t praise enough .
