Just back after a fantastic stay at Westlea. The house is so homely, very spacious and comfortable.and has everything you need. The sauna & hot tub are amazing, and really add that extra touch for a relaxing break. The games room was great to hang out in, there really is something for everyone to do. Location is great, shops are close by and the MoRead moreray coast too, which has some fabulous little villages and lovely beaches. We would definitely recommend staying at Westlea. Hide

Westlea cottage was a very comfortable victorian house with three bedrooms plus a toddlers room so it would be perfect for a young family. The hot tub was great and the sauna was brilliant. Sheila and John were very good hosts. This was the perfect location for our holiday visiting the whole of the Moray coast.

This is a really spacious house, it's well equipped and spotlessly clean. The outdoor space suited us really well, enclosed garden for the dog and ample storage for bikes and paddle boards. Hot tub is a good quality tub and we used it everyday of our stay. The shower downstairs had good pressure and always hot water, we didn't try the upstairs one.Read more The kitchen was really well kitted out and though we didn't do much cooking we definitely could have. Nice views from the upstairs rooms too. Hide
