This weekend is the Portsoy Boat festival. We've visit several times and always love it. Today is extra special as the Red Arrows are flying. It's been 6 years since I last saw them at Peterhead!

Apologies for the radio silence! My new job has been all consuming over the last 3 months and this is the first visit to Cullen that we've managed to squeeze in! We've had lots of lovely guests this year, looking forward to welcoming some of them back later in the year.

Such a lovely welcome for me today. Thank you to our last guests for the beautifully painted stones! 😍

Who else has been completely hooked by Traitors this year?! 🙋🏻‍♀️. Tonight’s final episode is filmed, partly with Portknockie and the Bow Fiddle Rock as the back drop, I can’t wait!😀

What a day in the north east of Scotland today. We only just made it to Cullen before they closed the A96 due to flooding. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and you are staying safe and dry.
Fancy a few nights in front of this fire? Dates available through January and February.

Walk along the beach, bumping into old friends and a pizza. Perfect Sunday! .pizza.findochty

From 1st October all short term lets in Scotland must have a licence or have applied for a licence. Keep your fingers crossed for us! 🤞🏻

We have a lovely repeat group in celebrating a special birthday this weekend. The Prosecco was kept cool in the snow last time! I hope you all have a fantastic weekend. 🎉🥂

Our sea view! It’s not often I sleep in this room but just love waking up to this view.

Changeover done, Michael paddle boarding and I’m enjoying coffee and cake . The cafe is 100% vegan and I can highly recommend the chocolate cake!

Michael and I arrived in Cullen yesterday with the paddle boards ready to get out on the water. We are experienced boarders and my sailing knowledge makes me highly aware of wind conditions. We knew as soon as arriving that it wasn’t a good idea to go out on the water. Many others were not so cautious. The lifeboat was called out to 5 separate paddle boarding incidents, due to the direction of the wind, along the Moray coast, four more in Highland. My top tips for coastal paddle boarding - never go out in a strong offshore wind (onshore winds are much safer, you get blown back to shore!) and always have means of contacting friends or emergency services.

It’s hard to pick them out but our lavender is teeming with bumble bees today! ❤️🐝

The head in the sand is 18 today! The photo was taken at the harbour beach (our favourite!) not long after we bought our Cullen house. We’ve loved our family time by the sea over the last 12 years and it feels like it’s passed far too quickly! I’m excited for his new adventures when he leaves us for the big smoke in September.

The sea is so clear today! ☀️ !

15/06/2023

What a perfect end to the day!

29/05/2023

A wee treat after changeover today! It’s another glorious day on the Moray coast.

21/04/2023

Where’s the sea?! 🤔 !

08/04/2023

Changeover day and a quick bite to eat in Portsoy on the way home. Fantastic addition to the town and I can recommend the scones!

31/03/2023

Lovely to have my wee sister help me do a changeover today. House cleaned in half the time then lunch at the Seafield Arms! 😋

Did you know that all short term lets in Scotland will need a license soon? Installing the Nest thermostat was for our energy efficiency certificate. This is needed for our application along with 10 further documents. You may find that places you’ve stayed in previously have decided not to apply due to the onerous application procedure and cost. We will be submitting an application and hope that we receive a licence to continue welcoming guests to Cullen.

A snowy, bitterly cold Cullen today with more showers blowing in! 🥶❄️

14/02/2023

Gorgeous day in Cullen today. One lone paddleboarder on the sea!

19/12/2022

It was 10 degrees in Cullen today! I wanted to stay longer as it’s been as cold as -9 inland. 🥶

13/11/2022

It really doesn’t feel like November!

08/07/2022

What a great addition to Cullen! I picked up a few deli things today but will definitely be back for some fresh, local fish!

05/06/2022

Lola had the beach to herself this morning before it got too hot. Michael and Zack tried to paddle board this afternoon but it was just a wee bit too choppy for them!

03/06/2022

11 years today we picked up the keys to our house here in Cullen. It’s been such a gorgeous day here today, similar to 11 years ago where the boys played on the beach until it was nearly dark! Swipe to see how wee they were!

03/06/2022

Sun, sea and dolphins! What more do you need on a bank holiday weekend?! 🐬

20/05/2022

One of only 2 peonies in the garden. Glad a caught it but it’s a shame they don’t last very long!

18/05/2022

The photo really doesn’t do it justice but Morven and Scaraben hills were so clear from Cullen tonight. Scroll to see just how far into the highlands they actually are!

I know it’s AI but I do love the way my phone creates these clips! I think there’s a couple of non-Cullen photos here but you can’t beat a Cullen sunset! #cullen #selfcateringaccommodation #selfcateringscotland #bookdirect #discovercullen #moraycoast
