"Phenomenal stay at the Sail Loft. I stayed a few nights after the Kadampa meditation retreat and absolutely loved my stay. The location is excellent, amazing walking opportunities and the beach is a 30 second walk from the front door!
You can get whatever you need from the coop in town. The place is well heated and all cooking and cleaning amenities are provided.
Place was spotless on entry and had everything I needed. Amazing price too
10/10 & I’ll be back soon"

"The place was perfect for what we needed. The house is ideal for a couple and 2 kids. We only needed one room but the place has everything you could want for a long stay. The host was great and has thought of everything you might be looking for while visiting the town of Portsoy. On my next visit I'll definitely check back in to see if it's available."

Arriving here last Monday , the lady on reception was most professional and courteous , explaining where the breakfast would be , the whisky room , the restaurant etc .. my room was detailed as a single ( snug ? ) room and it was perfect for my needs as an overnight stop single traveller .

Property was as described and as remembered (it was my granny’s old cottage!) . The welcome pack of goodies was a nice surprise. The cottage was very clean and nicely decorated with a cozy homely feel. I especially loved the fluffy white towels provided! I was put in touch with Debbie after I booked and she was great at communicating before,during and after the stay. I booked through Hotels.com but it’s a Sykes cottage and due to this Sykes wouldn’t let me amend any details through their app...

Wonderful location next to the River Spey. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Quickly resolved a problem with me having inadvertently paid twice. Lively bar with good food. Room was very comfortable

Cottage had everything you may need. Small welcome pack with tea/coffee/sugar/milk and shortbread for your arrival. Off road parking was a bonus. Chip shop within walking distance which was also an ice cream shop, post office and sold some groceries. Wonderful beach within walking distance too.
