Perfect
We had a lovely weekend in The Mill cottage. The property was spotlessly clean and the kitchen is exceptionally well-equiped. The bedrooms are a really good size, with comfortable beds. The cottages have gardens and lovely views over the countryside. The area is very peaceful, excellent for walking and the cottages are within easy reach of beautiful Findhorn, Forres and Elgin by car. Lastly, Paul, the owner, was wonderfully welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. He couldn't have been more helpful. Altogether, a great stay.
