My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful, peaceful week in Bayview overlooking Collieston harbour. The cottage was clean, well equipped and very cozy in the unseasonably cold weather; being able to sit in the conservatory and enjoy the view on a windy day was great. Although there are no shops in the village, it is a quick drive to Newburgh (where all the seals hang out on the beach) or Ellon (if you need a bigger supermarket). As well as some lovely local walks around the headlands, it is well worth taking a drive inland or up the beautiful coastal route towards Fraserburgh and beyond, and Aberdeen is an easy 25 minutes drive with some great museums and galleries, ten pin bowling, cinemas, good food and more.Huge thanks to our hosts. We would 100% recommend Bayview as a place to stay.
