Buchan Ness lighthouse

Sheila was a perfect host, the house delightful, surely recommended to all people who wish a relaxing place to live in.

I booked this for my in-laws as a lovely trip away. They loved it, the exact words are “it was a hidden gem” They loved meeting Shiela, Mel and the dogs, Shiela was the perfect host, they loved the fact that the accommodation retain original features but still had all modern amenities! They spent the first night just relaxing in the kitchen with a good few drinks. The weather was fantastic, and my father in law got some amazing pictures of the lighthouse. They really enjoyed their time away and didn’t want to come home!

Myself and my partner booked this via an online deal that was being offered coupled with recommendations of friends who stayed in the cottage on a couple of occasions over the last couple of years. We stayed at Skerry Cottage which was extremely warm and inviting and very comfortable indeed with the option of the peat fire in the living room as well which took me back to my childhood days in my grandparents house. Its a great place to get away from a busy working life and enjoy the scenery with the wildlife and the waves crashing against the rocks which the cottage overlooks. I would highly recommend going to Bullers of Buchan and Cruden Bay Beach which is great place to walk along and very clean whilst you are staying in the area. Sheila the owner was very welcoming and gave us a few ideas where to go and visit in the area. We finished off our trip by going to a local fish merchant today before returning home which we found out about via leaflets in the cottage. The freshest fish ever! I would highly recommend booking the cottage if you want to get away from it all and enjoy some relaxation time as we have came away feeling really refreshed. We hope to return at some point in the future again.

I went to Scotland for a week with my husband and my father. My father loves lighthouses, which is why we chose this as one of our accommodations. We loved it ourselves, and we were lucky that the second house was empty, so we had the area there to ourselves. We had Skerry, a super cozy, cute house with lots of nice decorations and an eye for detail. Also everything you need to cook in the cottage. What a beautiful environment, what friendly people, what a beautiful accommodation, many compliments to Sheila, whom we also met in person. Highly recommended!!
