Cottage vacation rentals in Whitehills

The best Airbnb we have ever stayed in. Beautiful location, cozy, relaxing and peaceful. Property had everything we needed. Stunning views from the Hot Tub. Host recommend booking a meal at local hotel and it was fantastic. Would highly recommend Brae Cottage.

Windyheads Bothy is a wonderful getaway. It has fantastic views and is surrounded by wildlife. There’s a fabulous widescreen fireplace which kept the living room nice and toasty. The place was great for a big family holiday.

Beautiful setting and high standard of cleanliness. House finished to a great standard and had everything we needed. Celebrated my 40th (12 of us) and it was perfect. Louise left a personalised note with a few bottles of fizz for us which I thought was lovely. Would recommend.

My husband and I and our 20 year old daughter had a wonderful stay at Butler Cottage. The estate grounds are amazing with a mix of woodland and farm fields scattered over the hills. We enjoyed daily walks done and along the river. If your animal lovers like we are it was extra special. The Highland cows and sheep add beauty to the scenery, but the deer, hares, pheasants and other birds of prey really add the wow factor. The cottage is full of charm with an old world feel. It’s been very smartly renovated and decorated and is in great condition. We loved the farmhouse style kitchen which is open to a comfortable living room with high ceilings. The built in beds are beautifully done and although on the small side we enjoyed the authentic touch. The wood stoves on each end of the cottage work well to add extra warmth in the evenings. Ross was a gracious host. The place was with fresh flowers and a basket of fresh goods from the farm. He even had the fire started for the hot tub.

Our extended family have just had the pleasure of staying here for a long weekend. It provided a peaceful location for us all to unwind without any disturbance. The property was lovely and it is nice to see hosts invest in their property. Having stayed in many Airbnb's around the world, they are often lacking basic implements or only buying cheap crockery. If you are after a relaxing get away for your family then place this location on your wish list.

We visit Scotland every year and we’ve stayed in some wonderful places over the last 21 years. Gale’s place is definitely one of our top three favourites! Goodness - it is impeccably furnished, comfortable and wonderfully spacious. We absolutely loved the evenings by the fire, the bright and airy conservatory, the comfortable kitchen, extremely generous bedrooms and table tennis. We will most definitely be back if they’ll have us!

Another perfect stay at no.30. We love staying in Elaine’s beautiful home. Cosy, comfortable and well equipped. We could sit and stare out to sea all day. Planning our next trip already. Thank you again!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The cottage is in a lovely spot. Perfect for the beach and a walk into town. We had dinner at the silver darling around the corner one evening and loved that. Easy to park. Cottage is quirky and tasteful

Lovely little cottage.

Spent a great week here with family, and we all felt at home. The property feels nice and secluded but is only a 10 minute drive from everything you need. loads of options for days out with or without kids and walks within reasonable driving distance. Bea was always easy to contact and very nice to communicate with if needed. highly recommend

We had a magical stay at the cottage! The pictures don’t do justice to it and we highly recommend getting better pictures. We got very lucky with the weather, saw sun, rainbow and snowfall! The place is also aptly located for northern lights sightings. We got amazing sightings from the cottage on two nights. The Aga kitchen is 5 stars in itself! We loved bringing in new years at the cottage with our little baby. The cot and high chair were both super helpful. Thank you Jennifer for being so responsive and helping our stay.

A nice stay in a quiet town near some of the best whiskey distilleries. Host was very polite and responsive!

We are just back from a 3 night stay at Sealladh Mara and are already talking about when we can go back! This was our third stay and, as always, we had the best time at this beautiful cottage. It really is a home from home, full of everything you could need to enjoy a break by the seaside. The views are stunning and the cottage itself is very clean and cosy. The children absolutely love the garden, especially the trampoline. There is lots of space inside for them to explore too and the added toys for kids is great. My sister and I enjoyed sitting outside watching them play but we also found some peaceful moments inside to enjoy the views. We walked along to the bijou cafe for coffee and cakes which was nice, and popped up to the local park which the children enjoyed too. We used a chip van one evening for an easy dinner which was also nice. Hannah is great at communication and very friendly. We love our time at the “trampoline house” and would highly recommend, as always.

An excellent location for those looking to get away from it all yet within walking distance to Tomintoul. The well kitted out kitchen means you cam cook a feast with ease and the log burning stoves give it a real cosy feel. Would highly recommend

Great cottage to stay in. We loved being able to visit the spey side distilleries. Rachel had the travel cot for our toddler set up when we reached the listing. Nice neighbors and even saw a pheasant!

Utterly beautiful. Waking in the morning enjoying the stunning scenery and gardens and then evenings watching movies with the log fire blazing afterfirest walks on your doorstep - incredible. The cottage is really spacious and loads of room in the bedrooms. Everything was spotlessly clean and beds super comfy. Bathrooms were great for us (family of four women from 85 to 25) Jennifer was very welcoming and it was nice to know she was on hand if needed - but left you alone too. Would 100% book again

Really enjoyed our stay, lovely and peaceful. So close to the river which is really pleasent to stroll along. Daily visits from guinea fowl added an extra bonus. Overall everything was clean but a bit more attention to detail was needed. Beds really comfy and bedrooms cosy and relaxing.

The cottage was a perfect place to meet our needs with Liz as host being flexible and most helpful. The cottage throughout is finished to a high spec and is beautifully appointed. Liz added many extra touches to make us feel at home. Although we were visiting relatives nearby, the location is perfect to explore Deeside and would be an ideal location for outdoor sports such as fishing, golfing & walking.

This is an outstanding place for kids and furry friends. Sue and Jim could not have been more helpful or welcoming - the cottage is pristine, cosy and with all you need no matter the weather. The grounds are stunning; affording you real privacy and lots to explore and do from climbing trees to den making, and all whilst surrounded by nature. You are only 10 mins from Inverurie which has plenty of shops to meet your needs. A trip to the Old Post Office for brilliant cakes, Castle Fraser and Kemnay are worth a visit as is the Pit Stop for a great fry up and the Gordon Highlanders museum is perfect for a raining day. Easily the most pet friendly place we have ever stayed.

Judith and Mark were awesome communicators. They were there to welcome us and answer any questions we had. The cottage was immaculate and the amenities were very nice. Parking was super easy, which is not always the case in Scotland! The cottage was adorable and had everything we needed. They provided coffee, tea and milk, which was an added bonus. Sitting on the back porch, drinking coffee in the morning was so peaceful and quiet. What a great way to start the day. The grounds and scenery were beautiful too! The Co-op supermarket is a two minute walk and had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone. Definitely a 10/10 stay!

Fantastic cottage, just a few steps from the sea in a lovely village. Cottage had everything that we needed, was spotlessly clean and felt really welcoming. Emma was a great host and checked everything was ok and answered any queries. Perfect place to relax and enjoy the beach. We would love to visit again.
