When you have unpacked your bags and need a rest after your journey, seek out the homely sitting room, filled with rugs, blankets, wooden furniture, and stylish sofas all filling the room with the essence of a seaside cottage, noting that there is also a selection of books to peruse and a woodburning stove to warm your feet as you recline with a coffee.

Seaside themes can be discovered throughout this beautiful property, including local artwork, sculptures, real seashells, and pale blue and aqua hues accompany the bedrooms in relaxing decor, with the king-size room offering subtle wallpaper and a writing desk with a view to the village outside, and the twin room is fitted with a fireplace (not in use), model boats and wonderful blue bedding, so in keeping with the seaside position of the property that you can almost smell the sea breeze.
Outside, a small enclosed sitting area offers a platform for morning coffee, with a view to the village as you plan your day.
The beauty and traditional architecture of the cottage continues into the picturesque village of Cromarty, offering a wealth of attractions to fill your days with, beginning with the shops and stores of the village itself, selling local crafts and produce, including a spectacular bakery, or why not indulge in local culture and heritage with a trip to the Old Courthouse Museum? Also available from the bay are boat trips, where you might be lucky enough to spy dolphins jumping in the clear blue sea, as well as exploring the wonderful shingle and sandy bays on offer, perfect for picnics, walks and watersports. If you plan to head out of the village, then the next large town is Inverness, offering a variety of activities from Inverness Museum Art Gallery and, a golf course and a variety of restaurants, bars and shops to peruse at your leisure.

What guests are saying
This was a lovely property, well equipped, warm and beautifully clean.
Michelle kept in contact to make sure we were happy without being intrusive. Great location. Would definitely recommend.
We had a very comfortable week at Seashell Cottage.
We have been staying in Cromarty regularly since 2003 and would definitely consider booking the property again. The bed was comfortable, we found the heating straightforward and all the appliances user-friendly. The cottage was well-equipped and we found everything we needed and more. The friendly and well-stocked village shop is less than 5 minutes away, also the bakery (highly recommended). I must also mention that, although we only communicated by text, the caretaker Michelle was very friendly and I am sure would have been very helpful had we needed any assistance.
Beautiful wee cottage,comfortable and full of character.
Key safe a bit hard to open.vrry stiff. Nice messages from housekeeper to make sure all was ok.A really great place to stay.
