Set within the countryside amongst a small group of houses on the outskirts of Elgin, this four-bedroom farmhouse is an ideal base for families and friends wishing to explore Moray and its castles, coastlines and culture. Play garden games on the extensive lawn or picnic under one of the towering trees that border the cottage. Enjoy a spot of stargazing from your indulgent private hot tub, before sipping a wee dram in front of the roaring flames of the living room wood burner and talking late into the night. Stroll into Lhanbryde village (1 mile) to pick up some local produce from the butchers or village store and enjoy an early evening drink in the welcoming village inn. Spend the day on the soft sandy beaches at Lossiemouth (6 miles) building sandcastles, investigating rock pools and paddling in the clear waters. Pick up your binoculars on a wildlife cruise around the bay in search of seals, dolphins and porpoises.

Tastefully decorated in a palette of soothing neutral tones, your holiday home offers comfortable accommodation with a crisp, contemporary style. Enter into the light and bright hallway before stepping through into the stylish kitchen to unpack your provisions.

Sip a morning coffee at the breakfast table, an ideal place for younger guests to take their dinner in the evening. For formal meals and special celebrations, gather around the elegant oak dining table where you can linger over supper enjoying each other’s company. At the end of a busy day, sink into one of the lounge’s inviting sofas and unwind in front of the flickering flames of the wood burner. Enjoying views over the garden, the ground-floor double bedroom is a relaxing room decorated in soothing tones for a peaceful night’s sleep. Also on this level is a convenient shower room, perfect for freshening up after a day at the beach. Heading upstairs you will find the king-size master bedroom with en-suite shower room, a second king-size bedroom and a pretty twin bedroom. Your spacious family bathroom is situated on this floor.

Scotstonhill is an amazing property for a week away in the middle of nowhere. It has all the facilities you could want, including outside plugs for (very slow) car charging and more rooms than you could need. The owners are always on hand should you need them, and had an electrician out within 30 minutes when the power went out due to a storm. Be aRead moreware you'll need a car to go anywhere - there's no shops in walking distance. Apart from that the location is blissfully quiet. Highly recommended. Hide
