Cottage vacation rentals in Newmachar

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars! Excellent home in a really peaceful beautiful location. It was easy to find and no issues entering the property. Stunning old house which clearly has a lot of history. The home was well presented and we found it comfortable. All the instructions were clear. The hot tub was excellent and the kids loved it. So peaceful at night. Only a 10 min drive into Alyth where there is a couple of shops, but many many lovely walks about ideal for dogs. The wifi was a bit hit and miss we struggled watching tv as it kept freezing with no signal. However given the rural location this is excepted and didn’t bother us too much. AGA cooker was great a real experience and I’m sure in the winter it’s beautiful and warm. Overall we would recommend the property, my only room for improvement would be looking into the WiFi and potentially adding a better dining table and chairs outside. It would have been lovely to dine outside on some more comfort chairs and better seating. Still 5 stars!

Our stay at the cottage was lovely. Ashley was quick to respond when we were having trouble with the WIFI . It was so peaceful and managed to spot a dear as we arrived. Would highly recommend. Colin, Michael &Lina.

We stayed here a few days in May. The Cottage is very remote, but you can reach the next village in arround 10 minutes by car. It offers great views of the surrounding area. the hot tub was amazing. Also the fireplace. we came to do some hikes and in the end decided to stay a whole day in the cottage, because it was so great.

The best Airbnb we have ever stayed in. Beautiful location, cozy, relaxing and peaceful. Property had everything we needed. Stunning views from the Hot Tub. Host recommend booking a meal at local hotel and it was fantastic. Would highly recommend Brae Cottage.

The place is in a stunning location and host very helpfuo and that good we Re staying another week . David

This cottage is wonderful. It's very cozy, has everything one could want including a big hot tub in a very secluded garden. We have dogs and because the garden is surrounded by stone walls and fences, it was perfect to let them wonder while we were in the hot tub. Very secluded and secure garden. The area is just idyllic. Two minutes away from Auchmittie and in the middle of beautiful countryside and so close to great beaches too. The hosts were excellent in all aspects too.

We had a great time at Bekki’s place. Plenty room for 4 adults. Had everything we needed. Her instructions were clear. The garden is private. We had a BBQ and ate in the lovely tiki hut. The hot tub was brilliant! Bekki was very friendly and replied to my messages immediately. Would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed a lovely stay at the house. Beautiful and serene surroundings. Was a great place to relax and unwind… Great day trips nearby. Would recommend you bring in all your provisions at the start of your stay and kitchen is fully equipped. Caroline was easy to contact and fast to respond. We chose to use the hot tub which was ready for us when we arrived and easy to operate. Our only wish was that had we known, it really should be drained & refilled after two days of use since there are no added chemicals (which is a plus) Overall a wonderful experience & would highly recommend

Kath was a fantastic host one of the best we have experienced. She recommended a fantastic restaurant which we went to on the Friday evening loved it, thank you so much Kath, thank you for being an amazing host. The eggs and jam were very good too, We hopefully see you again Denise , tris and Buddy the dog. x

Lovely property with all necessary amenities set in a stunning rural location. Perfect for dog owners with riverside walks 10 minutes from doorstep. Exploring Moray and Aberdeenshire coast and countryside is all to hand. Great beaches, restaurants, golf courses and local attractions only 20 minutes drive away. Despite being immensely busy out on farm Gale was just fantastic and gave all the help and advice when ever needed. Home from home for me in a real uncommercial location.

A fantastic stay in peaceful surroundings. A lovely, cozy home with super comfy sofas in the lounge to crash onto after a day of walking. Kitchen has everything you’d need, and we opted to stay in and cook as a result. Great location too, with a fantastic selection of restaurants just a short drive away.

The accommodation fitted the bill perfectly. From parking the car it was all a delight.

A very comfortable, clean and warm house to stay in with private garden and parking. We had a great week visiting local places then relaxing in the house in the evening.

Perfect place! We had a wonderful stay at Sheila’s cottage. It is beautiful, in a peaceful location with incredible views. The cottage was well appointed with everything we needed. Everything provided was great quality and the place was spotless. Comfy beds, great coffee machine and a lovely welcome gift. We are regular visitors to the area as we have family near by, we will absolutely be checking availability here first when planning our next trip.

Lyn of Sheval Croft is a piece of heaven on Earth. It was incredibly charming inside and sitting in the dome in the evening watching the sunset was so peaceful. We loved watching the horses roam in the field behind the house. Jennifer was a great host giving us incredibly detailed instructions that made our stay seamless. She also provided fantastic recommendations for in home whiskey tasting by Steve and local in home meal delivery by Mac & Cat. We hope to make it back to Speyside and would absolutely stay here again!

What an amazing place. We absolutely loved all the photos and stories describing the history of the place and how it had been in Cat's family for generations. It really added to the personality of the place. We loved the oldie-worldie furniture but yet had everything we needed to be comfortable. Lovely wood burning stove. Great for wildlife. We can't wait to return. Thanks for everything Cat!

Had a wonderful stay here! This is the second time I've stayed at Shellys property and it was as beautiful and clean as the first time. Loved the outdoor space, the views are stunning. Everything was so clean and we love the decor. Thanks again for another unforgettable stay! I even saw orcas for the first time just a minute from the property, unreal!

Nice. We lived the homey feel and the kitchen was great! Enjoyed the sheep and chickens out the windows.

Beautiful, peaceful place with wonderful views over fields. 15 minutes drive into Ellon on quiet road. Our trip had to be unfortunately cut short due to a family bereavement so we didn’t have time to enjoy as long as we would have liked.

A lovely stay in peaceful paradise, with owners always attentive to any requests. Perfect, i hope to return soon

Beautiful place to stay. Plenty of room for the family. Terri was a great host and kept us informed of location, check in etc

Lovely place in a rural area - the house had full amenities, would recommend any couple who wants to get away

What a fantastic please to stay. The cottage was clean and cosy and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds super comfy.. The location is peaceful and quiet ( the neighbouring road is close but you cannot hear the very infrequently passing cars). Plenty of space for 8 people. The scenery around the cottage is beautiful.

Excellent, very much enjoyed our stay
