Auchmedden Cottage is also brilliantly placed for golf, with many courses being found nearby. In the opposite direction, Fraserburgh has plenty of cafés and parks to keep you busy. It is also home to the Museum of Scottish Lighthouses, which is certainly worth a visit. If you are a keen bird watcher, then the RSPB Troup Head is 4 miles from the cottage. Auchmedden Cottage really is set in a wonderful location where you can explore all this area of Scotland has to offer. Fishing nearby. Beach 1¼ miles. Shop and restaurant 1¾ miles, pub 1 mile.

We had a lovely 4 night stay at the cottage with our dog.

We had a lovely 4 night stay at the cottage with our dog. Stunning views and perfect location, remote but not too remote. Fraserburgh & Banff only a 20 min drive away. The cottage was warm & cosy and has everything you need for that true home from home experience. The garden is fully enclosed so our dog had a great time and dog bowls are provided. The welcome pack is a nice touch with some local goodies in it and treats for our dog too (thank you Wendy).Can't recommend this property enough and we will definitely book again for next year.

Lovely little cottage with a really nice view of the sea.

Lovely little cottage with a really nice view of the sea. Dog loved running around the big garden. Owners very helpful when we had questions. Some nice beaches, takeaway restaurants, and coffee places nearby, though probably not much in walking distance unless you're *super* into hills. Wi-fi was occasionally a bit hit-and-miss, but mostly solid. Really enjoyed our week there.

This was our second stay here and it was just as perfect as last time.

This was our second stay here and it was just as perfect as last time. The beds are comfy, the cottage is warm and well equipped. The location is what drew us to this cottage in the first place, the lack of light pollution brings out more stars than we've seen anywhere else. The views are stunning from the cottage and the whole area is gorgeous in autumn. w3w hours.ample.losing will get you there, not the easiest to spot in the dark on your first visit. Probably a bit short on living space for four adults but for me and two kids 10 and 13 it was fine. All the local beaches are lovely and very different to each other.
