BEST vacation home on the coast!!
My family loved staying at this home! We had plenty of room for my family of 5. Being able to walk into the fishing village or drive 15 minutes into town, this house was the perfect location for seeing Scotland sites on the east coast. The kitchen had everything, the house was super clean....it was beautiful!!

Excellent location
Well equipped home, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. Ideal for what we wanted (2 couples and elderly lady). Excellent location. The home was comfortable and in the most part clean (a previous guest clearly had dogs and the windows were full of nose marks), bits of mould in the bathrooms. Could have done with a grab rail in the downstairs bathroom just to make it a bit more disabled friendly. Lovely and warm, excellent views out to sea and the village of Johnshaven, just a short walk along the coast was very friendly, with a well equipped village shop, seafood shop, cafe and pub selling excellent food. Overall we were very pleased with the house and location. Would recommend to friends.

We had a lovely week at seashore house It's yards from the sea and everyone in the village is so friendly. The house has everything you need and 3 bathrooms are a bonus espcially if you have family. If you like seafood the lobster shack is a must. Watching the dolphins was an unexpectd surprise. Stephen and Gwen are next door so are on hand if any problems occur. We can definitely recomment this property.

Lovely village and home
Stephan and Gwen were delightful hosts and the house was large, comfortable, clean and a beautiful view. The hotel in town had really great food. Make sure you have reservations though. They did help us by letting us do take away when we didn’t. The area had so many great things to see. Really close to Stonehaven (our host told us about it) and you must see Dunnottar Castle located just a short drive from here. Had some gifts and fresh milk in the fridge on our arrival. The host lives next door so if we had an issue they were readily available. Definitely would stay here again.

Comfy, handy, well equipped. Thoroughly enjoyable stay. (Even saw orcas bobbing by). Dogs also give a full 5 stars for the location and "walkies" just a few steps away from outside the front door. We look forward to our next visit.

We had a fantastic week at Sea Shore House. The location is perfect - next to the sea but away from huddle and bussle. Easy travelling distance to Dundee, Aberdeen, Cairngorms etc. Rocky beach but great for exploring. Very definitely recommended

We all had a wonderful holiday the house itself was spotless with a picturesque view also very homely feeling with everything you need for your stay The hosts Gwen and Steve were lovely and left you to your own devices but there if needed. The village’s shop had everything you need e.g from sun cream to dog food there’s also a tearoom and the Anchor hotel for food with friendly staff and St Cyrus beach is stunning and only a ten minute drive away. Will definitely be going back I highly recommend it Thanks Gwen and Steve for our lovely peaceful holiday just what we needed

Great location right at the sea, fab views from upper bedrooms and living room could sit and watch the seabirds for hours!Also spotted seals and dolphins. Very clean and comfortable and well equipped with self catering essentials. Enjoyed a coastal walk along to Inverbervie and a couple of local beer gardens. Great change of scenery post lockdown thanks!

Fantastic Base
Fantastic stay at the seashore house, if you are looking for a quiet relaxing base from which to explore the East coast look no further. To the south is the breathtaking beach of St Cyrus, a short drive away, the small town of Inverbervie to the north as well as Stonehaven where you can visit Donattar Castle etc, not to mention other surrounding wee towns of montrose, forfar, brechin, banchory and Aberdeen itself all within easy driving distance. The property itself is big and can cater easily for all your needs and the beds are really comfy for a good nights sleep. Was a quiet stay away with plenty to see around about, just what we wanted. There is also a football pitch and recreational facilities behind the property. You can start a coastal walk from outside your doorstep. Local owners, Gwen and Steve are also very friendly and your left to your own devices from the off. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet get away from it all stay.

Happy Holiday in Johnshaven
We really enjoyed our stay in Seashore House which was well equipped and comfortable for our party of 5. We had been expecting some DVDs, games and information about local walks etc but due to the corona virus we understood why there was nothing like this at the property. With the fantastic beaches nearby a bucket and spade would have been good and notification that we should bring these items with us.
