One of Cullen’s own is coming home…📚

My brother, Barrie Stevenson, Author, is back in Cullen at the end of October to talk about his journey from A&E doctor to bestselling author.

He’ll be at The Royal Oak Hotel - Cullen on Wednesday 28th October, talking about his books and the inspiration behind them.

If you’re staying at Sea Crest that week, it’s right on your doorstep.😉📖

A seat fit for a king.👑

Leather, Harris Tweed and a dram of your favourite wh**ky. Welcome to the Wh**ky Snug at Sea Crest.🥃

🥃 MALT OF THE MONTH 🥃

Don’t let the number fool you… 👀

This month it’s GlenAllachie 7 Year Old – Hungarian Virgin Oak — and it was my choice pick from a recent tour and tasting at Glenallachie Distillery.

A cracking dram and proof that age isn’t everything when it comes to wh**ky. 🥃

Kyla was a fantastic guide, so if you’re staying at Sea Crest and enjoy wh**ky, we’d definitely recommend the GlenAllachie tour. 🥃

Then come back to the Wh**ky Snug and enjoy a dram of your own. 😉

Sea Crest, Cullen

Two cottages. One stunning coastline. 🌊💙

You may know us as Sea Crest or Hill Crest — but did you know Sea Crest is Hill Crest’s baby brother?

Sea Crest — beachfront 🌊
Hill Crest — clifftop 🌅

Different views, different character, but the same love of this special corner of the Moray Coast.

If you’re considering a stay, we’d love you to book directly with us. It means dealing with us personally, from your first enquiry to the moment you arrive.

So if you’re thinking of a Cullen escape - you just need to decide on beachfront or clifftop! Message us to book direct. 📩

As the days get visibly shorter, we can’t help but reminisce about those not-so-distant summer nights. 🌅✨

Busy pier, golden sunsets and evenings that seemed to last forever. ❤️

Roll on next summer…☀️
