Company information

Mike and I have 20 years experience in the hospitality trade and pride ourselves on our ability to make guests feel welcome and at home. We are also very flexible when it comes to guests needs and special dietary requirements. We have a good overall knowledge of the Highlands and its attractions and are delighted to share this with our guests. We have recently moved to Buckie, although I am local, and are enjoying our new challenge. I enjoy home cooking and taking out our wee dog Ted. Mike is a keen golfer and delighted to advise guests on where to go from Spey side to Castle Stuart .

Property information

Kintrae is a period Victorian property set in the heart of the stunning Moray Coast with easy access to the major Scottish Cities of Aberdeen and Inverness and also the Cairngorm National Park in the heart of the Highlands. Mike and I took over from the previous owners in February 2016, with a view to improve the overall experience from entry until exit with the one and only aim, to exceed our guests expectations We have 4 guest bedrooms all with ample storage, tea and coffee facilities, flat screen TV with DVD player with selection of complimentary DVD's in our dining room as well as a small selection of books for guests use. Two of our rooms are en-suite and two share a large family bathroom. We pride ourselves on an informal friendly atmosphere, welcoming everyone who visits us. Breakfast is served in our dining room and is freshly cooked with alternatives such as freshly baked croissants, smoked salmon and the ever popular highland porridge., you will not leave hungry.

Neighbourhood information

Buckie is in the Heart of the Moray coastline, with views all the way to Dornoch on a good day. Dolphins and whales can, if lucky , be viewed from our sunroom. If not trips can be arranged locally. Buckie is a historic fishing town, with clues to its heritage all over the town, although much smaller now, a few boats still fish from Buckie. Kintrae is within walking distance of most local amenities in the town
