A warm welcome awaits you (and your pets) in the heart of Scotland’s Whisky Country. Our two 4 star cottages are the result of a barn conversion and are located in a totally rural location with magnificent views. Each cottage has an enclosed garden (as tested on Alfie the terrier!), open fire and is fully equipped to the highest standard.

This is a superb place to come on holiday with your pet, close to the empty beaches of the Moray Coast and close to the Cairngorms.  Responsible owners and their well-behaved pets are very welcome
