Resting on the shore with breath-taking views over the sea in Cruden Bay, Aberdeenshire is Shell Cottage. This idyllic, dog-friendly holiday home benefits from a fantastic location overlooking the swells of the North Sea lapping at the sandy shores, a close proximity to the a world renowned golf course and two well-appointed bedrooms perfect for four friends, or a small family looking to explore the wonders of Aberdeenshire. Step inside and out of the sea air to find a spacious and fully-equipped kitchen/diner where you can rustle up hearty meals for the whole family which can then be enjoyed around the dining table. Later, head into the homely sitting room and sink into the plush corner sofa ahead of snuggling up with your loved ones while a film plays on the Smart TV. When yawning begins, wash off the day in the sleek ground-floor shower room before climbing the stairs to catch your rest in the double or twin bedroom, where spectacular sea views are visible through the Velux windows. In the morning, stroll across the road to enjoy your morning coffee in the private gravelled garden where the sound of the sea hitting the shore provides a tranquil setting. Later follow the private steps in the garden down to the beach where you can amble along the golden sands and watch the kite surfers that frequent the water; the brave among you may even want to try your hand at it! The quaint village is also equipped with a local store where you can pick up essentials and a pub, the Kilmarnock Arms Hotel, where you can enjoy a much-needed break from the kitchen. Historic sites line this epic coastline, immerse yourself in the past at the 15th-century ruins of Slains Castle, Buchan Ness Lighthouse and Rattray Head Lighthouse where sun sets are truly breath-taking. The coastal town of Peterhead lies nearby and houses a myriad of other restaurants and bars as well as the Reform Tower where you can admire panoramic views over the town, coast and countryside. Experience all this and more at Shell Cottage.
