Traditional 4-Star Self Catering Cottage set in the beautiful picturesque fishing village of Gardenstown. Stunning sea views from all front windows, a private patio area overlooking the sea. Newly refurbished, warm and comfortable.The perfect holiday hideaway.

Rising from the waters edge, the village of Gardenstown is built into Red Sandstone cliffs with panoramic views of Gamrie bay.Take an evening stroll, picnic on the beach or paddle in the sea, the choice is yours. For the less energetic, there is always the local public house serving evening meals or a relaxing drink. You may get to see the famous Moray Firth Dolphins as they swim across the bay.Take your binoculars on holiday as there is always plenty of wildlife to be seen particularly in the breading season.

Cottage Review:
Third visit has proved to be as enjoyable as previous ones. Two Bears as we remembered it - extremely relaxing and comfortable. Lots to see and do in surrounding area. Lighthouse museum well worth visiting. Lunches there are very good value for money. Watched dolphins swimming near shore at Spey Bay. Managed to fit in a visit to St Johns Church this time. Views over Gardenstown and Crovie from there were quite stunning. Appreciated milk and cake on arrival. We were sorry to have to leave such a peaceful setting but hope to return again soon. |

Cottage Review:
Beautiful cottage situated in lovely quiet and peaceful village overlooking the picturesque Gamrie Bay. Very handy for cliff walks and many opportunities for observing the local wildlife. Very comfortable cottage, a welcoming place to come back to after a long day's sightseeing. Magnificent views across the water and cliffs from bedrooms, kitchen and lounge - suberb! |

Cottage Review:
This is a lovely cottage set high up in the village of Gardenstown giving great views out to the sea and over the village. The cottage is set at the end of a cul de sac making it very quiet. The cottage is very clean and comfortable and has all of the mod cons expected. Plenty of on street parking and an ideal base for touring. Gardenstown, nor the cottage, are really suitable for the very infrim as it has very steep hills. The local hotel is a must visit for good food and reasonable prices. |

This is our 5th visit to "Two Bears" as we are delighted with everything we find here. The sea views and sunsets are wonderful and the cottage itself is fantastic with every imaginable need catered for.Exceptionally clean with more than adequate supplies of bedding and towels etc,a fully equipped kitchen and up to date entertainment equipment.We also got a welcoming cake and a pint of milk ! |
