Holiday cottages in  Grampian;  Aberdeenshire, Banff & Buchan, Scotland to rent for self catering breaks all year round.

For people who have never vsiited this corner of north east Scotland, a wonderful surprise awaits. The coastal scenery is magnificent. There are awesome cliffs where thousands of sea birds nest and puffins waddle about in the spring, lovely old fishing harbours, some of the best sandy beaches and bays in Britain.

This area has a strong character, the people are friendly and welcoming although you may need a guide to Doric and a good ear to understand some of the speech.

The best times to visit are May to September, for the best weather. Visit the nature reserves, go on woodland walks to stumble across ancient stone circles and Pictish remains.

There are lots of opportunities for sea and river fishing, golf, cycling and an array of outdoor activities. The north east of Scotland is highly recommended for a memorable holiday in Scotland.
