The cottage was extremely well equipped, clean and comfortable. The fixtures and fittings were modern and well maintained. It was quiet at night and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. [Added at Editor's discretion since it appears to be a helpful review and the reviewer has been authenticated]

The cottage is ideally situated in a fabulous village which is an ideal base for exploring this part of Scotland. The cottage really does have everything you could ask for - a home from home. If you are looking to stay in this area then it cannot be bettered (we have stayed in a number of lovely cottages in this area and so speak from experience).

Cottage Review:  

Lovely setting and a very well equipment cottage for the size. Cozy bedrooms up in the roof and very fresh throughout. Hadn't been to the area before and this was a great base to explore it from.

Enjoyed the living room and lounge. Nice bathroom and a really well laid out space. Would definitely return if we were to go to the area again.

Cottage Review:  

The perfect self catering cottage, in an ideal location for a quiet break. The cottage caters for every need and is in exceptional condition. It is clear that a lot of thought and effort has been put in to make the cottage comfortable and homely. We couldn't have asked for any more. We will definitely be back again and again.

Home from home. Fantastic cottage in a lovely old fishing village. Less than a minute walk to the amazing view of the harbour with fantastic sunsets. Best self catering we have ever stayed in & we take 3 or 4 holidays a year. The owners had thought of everything you could need.

I can't recommend McKenzie Cottage enough. Our family regularly visits Portknockie and McKenzie Cottage is always our first choice when selecting a cottage in the area. The cottage amenities are first class and we just love spending some relaxing time here. Excellent.
