Lovely, very well equipped house with spectacular coastal views. .Collieston has a lovely harbour and beach and is popular with young families. Only slight downside is there is no restaurant/pub within walking distance.

We had a three week stay and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.We were fully aware of the limited amenities in the seaside village and enjoyed the peace and quiet. It is a great area for walking.Locals we spoke to were most welcoming and we enjoyed the Gala.Communication with the owner was excellent as was the back up service (towel and bedding changes).We booked for three weeks next Summer whilst we were there.
