About this property
A detached, stone-built croft, situated in the village of Portessie and enjoying uninterrupted views over the Moray Firth. Spacious, well equipped and comfortable, Braehead Croft offers three bedrooms, two with en-suite facilities, a large open plan living area and lovely lawned garden, making a superb holiday home. The surrounding area is an outdoor enthusiast's paradise with truly superb beaches and a variety of outdoor pursuits on offer. There are five golf courses within 10 miles of the village and the RSPB Reserve at Spey Bay is a 'must' for birdwatchers with ospreys visiting each summer. Less than an hour's drive from whisky and castle trails and the Speyside Way Walk and well situated for exploring all of this attractive part of north east Scotland, Braehead Croft makes an excellent base for a great holiday!
The attractive old villages of Gardenstown and Pennan are also nearby, as is Cullen, which has one Scotland's largest beaches. Within easy reach of this accommodation, Cullen is a popular destination with families because of its massive beach but also because there's plenty of nature spotting to enjoy. If there's a bird watcher in the family then they'll be pleased to know that the rspb Reserve in Spey is also in the area. The Moray Firth is also a top place for spotting bottle-nosed dolphins and there are regular dolphin spotting boat excursions on offer throughout the day.

Such lovely accommodation in a beautiful area. The 180o seaview is a major selling point, along with comfortable seating and great facilities. Sadly the dolphins didn't put on a show for us or the Orca, but it was sunny or at least dry enough to make use of the patio area. As usual Mr Smith had a lovely display of bedding plants in the garden.
