Description
Mitchell's Cottage has the traditional charm of a 19th century fisherman's cottage with an open fire in the living room, together with a high standard of accommodation for up to 5/6 people in 3 bedrooms. It has just been refurbished and modernised to be a welcoming home-from-home.
The cottage is in a quiet location and has sea views from two of the bedrooms. It has a cosy and romantic, but yet family feel to it.
Gardenstown, or Gamrie as it's known locally, is situated on the north-east coast of Scotland and has big skies, big seas, and it nestles below dramatic red sandstone cliffs. . It has rows of prettily-painted traditional fishermen's cottages, a beach and is one of the most beautiful villages in Scotland. It has a nice old-fashioned family feel to it, with its own butcher and bakers (not a candlestick maker although there used to be a candle-maker).
The local pub, the Garden Arms is 100 yards away from the front door of Mitchell's Cottage and has a roaring fire, no tv, and no mobile phone reception so is the perfect place to get to know the locals. It also does great food at the weekend.
There are gorgeous walks around the village or simply stay at home with a dram in front of the open traditional fire.
Free welcome pack which includes coal, firelighters, tea, coffee, and bottle of wine.
Quiet location with lots to explore and do locally.
One well-behaved dog welcome.
Mitchell’s Cottage sleeps 5/6 (2 king-size beds + 1 single + a fold-down bed). Three bedrooms with cast-iron bedsteads, and sea views from two of the the bedrooms.
The cottage is a traditional stone built cottage with an open fire in the large living room. It also has double glazing, and there are parking spaces.

The cottage is a traditonal fishermans cottage built from local stone which is newly renovated and painted interior which includes new kitchen and new modern bathroom with a shower over the bath. We're waiting for Visit Scotland to come and grade us.
