Set in a perfect location in the stunning coastal fishing village of Johnshaven, Seashore Retreat is a lovely cottage set right on the sea front. It truly could not have a better location. The stunning view can be enjoyed all year round from the comfort of the garden summer house. With patio doors leading from the living room right to the decking, there are no shortage of vantage points to watch the waves crashing against the rocks.

The cottage is very comfortable and is exactly as shown in the photographs on the website, it’s just perfect. It comes equipped with everything you would need for a self-catering holiday and the little welcome starter pack was a nice touch. The views of the sea from both the living room and bedroom are just amazing and mesmerising…pre-breakfast coffee in bed got longer each day or maybe it was the very comfy bed!!The decking and small garden which face onto the sea would be really lovely in good weather and we were able to do some star gazing at night, as it does get very dark. We received an email pack with details about the cottage, local amenities and things to do further afield, a week before arriving at the cottage which was helpful in planning what to see. Coastal walks both south to St Cyrus and north to Gourdon are easily accessible from the cottage. A must is getting a couple of the delicious Lobster Rolls from the Lobster Shop at the harbour in Johnshaven.

We had a great week at Seashore Retreat - this is our second stay as a family of four. The cottage has absolutely everything one could need and was spotlessly clean too. We went crabbing (my first time) and caught 3 crabs in the harbour- the kids loved it. We enjoyed meals at The Anchor Inn, The Ship (Stonehaven) and amazing cakes at the Hidden Treasure Tea Room. All great recommendations from our host Jennifer. We had a particularly lovely lunch at Kangeroo's Leap in Montrose after a visit to the splash pad and beach. We flew kites at St Cyrus, my husband did a Highland Swing (bungee kind of thing) in Killiecrankie, and went to Ballatar and visited the newly refurbished Braemar Castle.The cottage and the great host make this one of our favourite places to stay. Such a fab holiday and of course the sunsets, sunrises and the stormy sea added to it all - we will definitely return.

Had a lovely 5 days it was my 60th birthday and was a real treat to be away the only downside was we went home 2 days early as storm was hitting on Friday and snow on Friday night so went home early to miss but will soon be booking for later in the year fantastic location. Enjoyed every minute minute.
