Nice house with good views of the sea.
If you enjoy being close to the sea this property is ideal. There are good views especially from the garden. The house is comfortable and warm. The owners are very responsive and have provided for most needs. Johnshaven is a good base from which to explore this stretch of coast but equally there is enough in the village that you wouldn't have to stray far.

This cottage was easy to locate and in a very scenic and beautiful small village with friendly inhabitants. It was extremely clean and very well equipped and had the most outstanding views of the Aberdeenshire North Sea coast line. The owner had put together a very comprehensive book about the cottage, how the heating worked, where to find everything plus local places to eat, visit etc. It was the best introduction to a cottage I have had in the 20 years I have been renting them. I would highly recommend Seashore Retreat to family and friends or anyone wanting a quiet seaside holiday in an upmarket property.

This is our favourite cottage of all time and we have stayed in loads.
This is our favourite cottage of all time and we have stayed in loads. Huge kitchen diner, very comfy beds and permanently toasty! We could not understand a previous comment about the decor when you have such a brilliant vista from the lounge! We never had the TV on as there was so much to see from the patio doors and on the decking and we could always find a sheltered spot from most wind directions. From a gannet feeding frenzy to a stoat and a resident bunny we watched loads more from the decking. The crab/lobster wholesaler on the harbour will sell you these things, either fresh or cooked and I was treated like a pal even though I only bought 3 crabs ! Top marks to these guys. Two top butchers Montrose and Stonehaven, bakers in Montrose and usual Co-ops most places. We rated the local purvy very highly so we cooked in-house all the time apart from the fish supper in Gourdon- try it! We had a Haar one day but we really want to experience a storm! For us there were absolutely no negatives. Sorry to rant on but we really loved this wee cottage!

Beautiful location;.
Beautiful location;. comfortable and spacious and everything needed for a self catering holiday. Can walk for miles both ways from the house; complete peace and quiet - just how I like my holidays! My negative is the carpet in the bathroom! Please, please replace with an impervious floor covering as soon as the house is free for a weekend. Perhaps, next revamp, modernise the colours to reflect current times - colours dated. However, clean and comfortable
