Family friendly , 2 with EV chargers, 1 eco/accessible, all well loved and thoughtfully equipped. Your hosts, Wendy and Colin:
We got married in 2002. Independently, we had decided to give up stressful jobs, working long hours, to go travelling in Africa. After a long honeymoon (in a roof top tent, again in Africa), we decided to settle down and ‘move to the country’ for that oft touted lifestyle

change. For 8 years, we ran a B&B in Elgin, but found a conflict of interests when our young twins needed to go to 2-3 group. At the same time as our guests wanted breakfast! Enjoying tourism, we moved into the self catering holiday business in 2007. Our First holiday Cottage
At this stage the property market was moving very quickly. We knew we wanted to be in the Seatown area of Lossiemouth. We had put offers in on a couple of places there, but lost out. Then one Friday, Seatown Cottage came on the market, for a fixed price. Unfortunately, we were on our way to Amsterdam for a week. Our solicitor thought we were a little crazy, but we put an offer in on it – unseen! We reckoned if the photos were nice enough to make us want to buy it, it would be nice enough to persuade people to come to stay for a week (and Colin was by then a joiner, so could fix any minor irregularities!)

Colin got home a few days before me, and went to view our new purchase with some trepidation. He called me straight away to say that he loved it. And we haven’t looked back since! People have asked if we’re stopping at 4. I thought so, as more would not allow me to manage them with the personal care and attention that we think your holiday deserves. In 2019 Colin decided he wanted a 'project' and we started work on the Old Police Station in Portsoy, totally renovating it, a long labour of love! Then we decided to move into Seatown Cottage. Much as we loved Fordyce, the house was always cold, we had to drive everywhere, even to walk the dog and I wanted a view of the water. We have extended the cottage, ticked all the green boxes adding solar panels, an air source heat pump, triple glazing and are now loving living in Lossie. However we might just have another project in the pipeline... This WILL be the last!

Was there a hint of an aurora last night? Anyway, the darker nights mean the aurora season is starting to pick up again!...

I have never seen so many jelly fish washed up on the beach before, though I have noticed they are more prevalent at certain times of year. Does anyone know what causes it?
