Harbour Loft Visitors' Book
'Loved the 'Secret Garden' and the courtyard is also great. Flat is beautiful and has a lot more character than many holiday places I have stayed, which often tend to be bland, soulless and a bit depressing! Harbour Loft is very welcoming and beautifully decorated and furnished (I am going to copy your blinds!) but also has a relaxed feel I love. Perfect base for my sketching break, and have come away with several sketch pads full of views of Portsoy and Cullen and coastal landscapes. I even saw dolphins - twice! - but they were too fast-moving to draw! Very nice, friendly locals in the Shore Inn too. I don't drive, so the location was perfect for me, with buses and footpaths to take me where I wanted to be, and Portsoy itself a great place to spend time, and having everything I could need. Feel refreshed and reinvigorated by my wonderful holiday.' Susan Hitchins, Manchester, July 2017
'A wonderful holiday in Portsoy - thank you! Harbour Loft is a very comfortable and cosy base and we found everything we needed was supplied, including delicious local produce! We particularly enjoyed sitting in the 'Secret Garden' in the evening and looking over the rooftops and the sea while the sun set. So peaceful!' Claire and Gavin Menzies, Edinburgh, June 2017
'Another week at Harbour Loft gone by too quickly! Good weather again - Storm Doris passing us by. A couple of good (flat) walks - Cullen House and old churchyard, Duff House down to the Bridge of Alvah. Fish from Downie's in Whitehills for tea a couple of nights. Glenglassaugh Distillery - couple of souvenirs to take away and remember this place by. Must come back at Boat Festival time (next year!). Fast becoming our home from home!' Morag and Gordon, Falkirk, February 2017
'Booked the cottage between Christmas and New Year at short notice - and what a find! Warm and cosy, plenty of hot water and beautifully presented - and clean! The welcome basket of goodies was greatly appreciated and a flavour of Scottish fare. Thank you - we will certainly be in touch in 2017. ' Mick and Jacqui Hennessey, December 2016
'Thank you, Jane, for creating such a welcoming holiday cottage - just perfect for our visit to catch up with family & friends... We are definitely planning a return trip. Your welcome goodie pack was amazing too. Thank you so much.' Esme and Dave Upcott, Surrey, October 2016
'Time to go home after a week that has flown by. Loads of places visited, but loads more still to do, next time! Elgin Cathedral is incredible, and we've seen a few, Duff House is also very good, and the food at Castle Gordon worth a visit just for that, superb. Portsoy and surrounding area, great for walking and people so very friendly, pub was great fun too! And local beer, yum. No dolphins this time, maybe next? Last but certainly not least is the 'Harbour Loft'. Fantastic! Had everything we needed, cosy and comfortable, oh and a good fish shop 2 minutes walk away. Will definitely come back.' Morag and Gordon Brotherston, Falkirk, 8 October 2016
'Thank you Jane for accommodating us at short notice. We had a super time with walks every day and lots of coffee shops as well. Barney loved the beaches and the weather has been super every day!! You have a lovely cottage and allied with the Secret Garden will undoubtedly be a popular place to stay in the years to come. Good luck.' Simon, Maureen and Barney Neal, 4 September 2016
'We had a peaceful and healthy break here to be remembered!' Jim and Margaret, 27 August 2016
'We've had a fantastic time, great apartment and location, will come back again.' Claire Anderson, 8 August 2016
'We had a lovely, relaxing weekend stay in Harbour Loft. The flat was beautifully furnished, comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed lovely walks along the coast, shell and stone collecting on the quiet beaches, and there is lots more to do in the area - we only wished we had longer this time to enjoy it. Our children (12 and 9) did not want to leave! We will definitely be back for a return visit and will look forward to seeing how the 'secret garden' has evolved by then!' The Davie family, Edinburgh, 19 July 2016
'We had a great time at the festival and really appreciated having somewhere so ideally located to stay.... The flat is lovely and you have obviously put a lot of thought into every detail.' Caroline Clark, 27 June 2016
