Being
seduced by the slow smashing of the waves on the shore or
just from the song of the gulls? Or again from the walks in
discovering quaint and secluded villages nearby?
Whatever your journey's purpose might be, Tidewater Cottage
will satisfy all your needs. If you are looking for a seaside
retreat Gardenstown offers you a fine sandy beach where swimming
is available in summer time.
From Seatown you can easily reach the picturesque bay of Crovie
just ten minutes away on foot and, from there the Coastal
Trail up to the village of Pennan. The western marine
ports of Whitehills, Portsoy, Cullen,
Portnockie, and Findochty are all within few
minutes drive.
Art enthusiasts should not miss the "Duff House"
in Banff, a splendid mansion in perfect Georgian baroque,
converted into the national academy of fine arts.
In the countryside the history dates back to centuries visiting
the Castles of Huntly, Fyvie, Delgatie and
Tolquhon ruins.
Renowned all over the world for its whisky the Grampian Higlands
offer the unique experience of a "malt whisky trail"
discovering Strathisla and Glenfiddich distillery
as well as the famous Glen Grant's.
For sport seekers two golf clubs await you at little distance
from Gardenstown: the Royal Duff House and the Tarlair
Golf Course both immersed into spectacular sceneries.
For all the "bravehearts", finally, Gardenstown
itself would be a perfect base for Inverness (60 mls
westward) discovering the most mysterious lake in the world,
Loch Ness, and visiting Cawdor castle of Shakespearian
memory.
