Guests say
Pennan Lodge receives glowing praise for its stunning, peaceful location overlooking the North Sea and Pennan village. Guests consistently highlight the cottage’s cleanliness, comfort, and well-equipped facilities, making it an ideal base for exploring the Aberdeenshire coast. The tranquil setting, beautiful views, and abundance of wildlife are frequently mentioned, with many guests eager to return. Minor issues such as occasional maintenance needs and welcome packs are noted but do not detract from the overwhelmingly positive experience.
The majority of guests describe the cottage as very clean and well maintained. A few minor concerns were raised about bathroom cleaning and mould, but these were isolated and outweighed by numerous positive comments.
The location is universally praised for its breathtaking views, peacefulness, and proximity to beaches, coastal walks, and local attractions. Guests repeatedly mention the stunning scenery and tranquil atmosphere.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, warm, and spacious, with restful beds and a cosy atmosphere. A couple of minor comments about bedding size and shower pressure were noted but did not significantly impact overall comfort.
The cottage is described as well equipped with everything needed for a relaxing stay, including kitchen appliances and utensils. Occasional feedback mentioned minor maintenance issues, such as cooker settings and shower riser, but these were addressed promptly.
Some guests appreciated the welcome pack, though others found it basic. It should be noted that gifts or welcome packs are not guaranteed. Owners were responsive and helpful, especially when resolving issues or returning forgotten items.

No smoking.. These two very comfortable semi-detached holiday cottages (26817 and 26818) occupy a stunning elevated position on a mixed working farm on the headland just outside the beautiful village of Pennan. Both properties boast fantastic sea views; Mill Shore Cottage has a cosy living room which features windows on two sides allowing uninterrupted viewing of Mill Shore below – a secluded shingle beach with sandy shallows beyond, offering a unique perspective on the abundant marine life – seals can be spotted easily in the bay, whilst further out whales and dolphins are often sighted. Pennan Lodge again has marvellous views of Pennan itself and the bay beyond. In addition to the amazing marine life, just round the corner and visible from the cottages is Troup Head, a renowned nature reserve featuring the only UK mainland colony of gannets. Next door is Cullykhan Beach, another secluded cove reached by a steep walk down to the shore. Pennan is renowned for its famous phone box as featured in the film ’Local Hero’ but it is a lovely village in its own right, typical of those strung out along this rugged coastline, including Crovie and Gardenstown, reached by steep winding roads to the bottom of the cliffs from which they cling. This is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty providing wonderful areas for walking. Shop and restaurant 4 miles, pub ¼ mile.
