    friendly staff

    Just an appropriate option for a short layover in Cruden Bay with great value-to-price ratio. The staff was friendly and the place was clean and tidy. Make sure to try the local restaurants instead of dining in the hotel.

    Absolutely Wonderful Family Getaway

    Our stay was delightful! Cozy ambience welcomed us after long beach walks. The staff went above and beyond to entertain our toddler and two dogs. Dining was a highlight. the chicken wrapped haggis was a treat. Don't miss the sticky toffee pudding – it's simply divine!

    Cozy stay with great vibes!

    Just spent 3 nights in a cozy room that was super clean and comfy! The staff were so friendly, always smiling and helpful. Loved the food in the bar area, it was top-notch. Only bummer was the room faced a busy road, which was a bit noisy. Still, Cruden Bay is a lovely spot to explore!

    brilliant food

    great base for exploring stunning coastal landmarks and parks

    During my stay, I loved how close I was to New Slains Castle, just a short walk of about 1.5 km away, and the breathtaking views at Bullers of Buchan, which is almost 2 km from the hotel. the food was brilliant, and the service was great, making my evenings enjoyable after a day exploring the area.
