About this property

Fisherman's Cottage In Tranquil Highland Village Overlooking The Sea

Bright Water Cottage is located in the small coastal village of Rockfield (near the larger village of Portmahomack) right on the shore of the Moray Firth itself, literally within touching distance of the sea! A large sunny porch enables comfortable dining for up to 6 people with uninterrupted ocean views. There is private parking directly outside the front of the cottage for up to 3 cars. A small, private seaside front garden affords uninterrupted views across the Moray Firth, with a BBQ and picnic table for al fresco dining, plus an additional garden bench. Centrally heated and double glazed throughout with a small wood burning stove in the front room, the cottage provides a cosy retreat. The modern kitchen is equipped with an 8 ring gas hob, double oven, large upright fridge freezer, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and LCD TV. There is also a small breakfast bar with additional seating for 3. There is a downstairs WC adjacent to the dining porch. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with a Queensize bed and the other with two good size single beds, large enough for adults. Both upstairs bedrooms have sea views, as does the family bathroom which has an oversized bath, shower, WC and large heated towel rack. The upstairs bedrooms have LCD TVs. The downstairs bedroom has a Queensize bed. Flooring is solid wood throughout apart from the kitchen and porch areas which are tiled. There is complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the entire cottage. To the rear is a sunny garden, ideal for general relaxing. Depending on the time of year, bird and wildlife abounds. The dolphins are regularly seen all year round patrolling up and down the Moray Firth and occasionally, if you are eagle eyed, an otter or two!

Tolles Haus in wunderschöner Umgebung
Wir haben unseren Urlaub im Bright Water Cottage sehr genossen! Das Haus ist genau wie auf den Bildern und in der Beschreibung angegeben und sehr sauber. Auch die Kinder haben sich wohl gefühlt und den Ausblick und das Delfine anschauen vorm Haus sehr genossen. Viele Sehenswürdigkeiten und die tolle Natur der Highlands sind direkt in der Nähe. Die Vermieter Richard und Suzanne sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Insgesamt war es ein rundum gelungener Urlaub.

Cottage in wunderschöner Lage
eWir haben unseren Aufenthalt in Rockfield sehr genossen. Das Cottage ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Eine so gut ausgestattete Küche haben wir noch in keinem Ferienhaus vorgefunden. Es ist einfach alles da. Der Blick aus dem Wintergarten aufs Meer ist grandios. Die Vermieter Richard und Suzanne sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Es war eine sehr schöne Woche.
