About this property

Just 200 yards from the beach, this cottage is a great base from which to explore the Aberdeenshire coast.. Ground Floor:

Living room: 28" Freeview TV, DVD Player, Open Fire

Dining room: (1 Step), Woodburner

Kitchen: Electric Cooker, Microwave, Fridge, Dishwasher, Washing Machine

Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet

First Floor:

Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed

Bedroom 2: Double (4ft 6in) Bed, Z-Bed (Flexible Sleeping Only). Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial fuel for open fire and wood burner included. Welcome pack.. Small enclosed garden with sitting-out area. On road parking; additional public car park, free of charge, 55 yards away. No smoking. Please note: Couples, family bookings and holidaymakers only. There are 6 steps and a drop in the garden.. This old detached fisherman’s cottage, approached along a narrow road, has been lovingly restored and retains many of its original features. With stunning sea views over Collieston’s beach, Seaton Cottage is not only a great place to watch the waves but it is also very well situated for all the local area has to offer. Collieston is a former fishing village that provides dramatic views all year round and there are plenty of walks in the area. There are many golf courses within a 10-mile drive, including Cruden Bay Golf Club and the Trump International links course. A visit to the neighbouring village of Newburgh to see the seals is a must, as is a tour around the famous BrewDog Brewery located in Ellon. The larger city of Aberdeen is 16 miles away and provides plenty of amenities and attractions. Beach 200 yards. Shop 5½ miles, pub and restaurant 5 miles.

Great cottage in a sleepy hamlet near the harbour.

Great cottage in a sleepy hamlet near the harbour. Lovely evening strolls after a busy day walking and exploring roundabout. Local people very friendly. Great views from cottage taking in the high waves over the harbour wall.

Seaton Cottage is a traditional fisherman's house. It has been completely and tastefully been renovated. The house and especially the kitchen is equipped well. The house has been very clean.Collieston is a very small hamlet - you absolutely need to have a car if you stay there. There are some restaurants nearby, but you need to drive. There are several nice hikes you can do from Seaton Cottage.We enjoyed our time at Seaton Cottage and would definitely book again.

Fantastic cottage, so well equipped, spotless, beautifully decorated and amazing views.

Fantastic cottage, so well equipped, spotless, beautifully decorated and amazing views. The owners are very kind too. We have rented a lot of cottages & this is an absolute gem! The only downside for us was the lack of cafe/shop within the village but there is a big Tesco’s 5 miles away.

We were delighted with all aspects of the cottage.

We were delighted with all aspects of the cottage. Extremely well equipped and comfortable. Fresh flowers and plants gave it a homely feel. It was a good location for us, as we were able to visit a variety of National Trust properties and to do some coastal walks. Excellent.

This is a beautifully and stylishly decorated cottage.

This is a beautifully and stylishly decorated cottage. The owners have been very thoughtful in their provision of things to make a stay enjoyable. We didn't need to light a fire but all was ready to do so. It is only a short walk down to the beach and not far up the hill into the Forvie Nature reserve. You do need a car as there are no shops for provisions in the village - just an ice-cream cafe that is open in the daytime and a van selling fish one evening; and there is no pub or restaurant within walking distance. It is a good excuse, though, to spend cosy evenings inside or, with fine weather in the long summer evenings, sitting outside!

An absolute gem of the north.

An absolute gem of the north. A beautiful fishing cottage renovation, tastefully and thoughtfully furnished with everything comfort. Lovely easy to work in kitchen with everything you could possibly need, wonderfully clean and classy bathroom with cozy living and dining rooms. Morning coffee on the bench outside watching the harbour, lovely after dinner walks along the coastal paths (great secluded sand beach about one mile south coastal walk through the nature reserve) what is not to love about this house!!! Locals are friendly, huge Tesco nearby in Ellon and easy access to the big roads to get to all the nice close by tourist spots. Loved our stay, loved the house.

We had such a lovely stay at Seaton Cottage.

We had such a lovely stay at Seaton Cottage. It was our first time in the area and the cottage was situated in the gorgeous little village of Collieston. The cottage was perfect, everything you could possibly need was catered for down to the board games and huge variety of kitchen equipment. Our favourite aspect of the cottage was the dining room with the original stone wall and the 2 wood burning fires in the cottage, perfect for rainy days and cosy nights. Everything was incredibly clean and neat and we really could not fault this place at all. The owners have done a wonderful job and we can’t thank them enough for ensuring our stay was perfect especially with them being easy to contact if we needed to! One day we would love to come back and stay at Seaton cottage and explore the wonderful surroundings even more.

Seaton is a beautiful cottage in a stunning location with great views of the harbour and North Sea and a good place from which to explore the surrounding area. Very well fitted out & furnished to a stylish high standard. Spacious with kitchen, dining room, lounge, bathroom (shower only), two bobble bedrooms and outside spaces to sit. Those with limited mobility may find the uneven, steep stairs too difficult to navigate. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and look forward to returning.
