Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found Inveray to be spotlessly clean, with only a few isolated comments about minor cleanliness issues such as unwashed crockery and the need for a dusting in certain areas. Overall, the property maintains a high standard of cleanliness.
The cottage's location is consistently praised for its proximity to the beach, town, and scenic walks. The convenience of the location and the stunning sea views contribute to its near-perfect rating.
Guests frequently mention the comfortable beds, cosy log burner, and homely feel of the property. The spacious rooms and comfortable furniture provide a relaxing environment, leading to a high comfort score.
The property is well-equipped with a good range of kitchen utensils, comfortable beds, and ample parking. Some guests suggested minor improvements, such as replacing the freezer and adding an extra armchair, but overall, the facilities are highly regarded.
The owners' thoughtfulness is frequently mentioned, with gestures like leaving milk, biscuits, and even a bottle of Prosecco. While these gifts are greatly appreciated, it's important to note that such personal touches, though common, are not guaranteed with every stay.

The house itself is clean and well maintained. Beds are really comfortable. In a great location, 5 minute walk into Seahouses and a short walk over nearby Golf Course to a lovely beach.

Nice, clean and spacious property in a great location, 200m away from a stunning dog friendly beach. When we come back to Seahouses we will be looking straight away to re-book here.
