Overview
Mitchell's Cottage -
Mitchell's Holiday Cottage has the traditional charm of a 19th century fisherman's cottage with an open fire in the living room, together with a high standard of accommodation for up to 5/6 people in 3 bedrooms. It has just been refurbished and modernised to be a welcoming home-from-home.
The cottage is in a quiet location and has sea views from two of the bedrooms. It has a cosy and romantic, but yet family feel to it.
Gardenstown, or Gamrie as it's known locally, is situated on the north-east coast of Scotland and has big skies, big seas, and it nestles below dramatic red sandstone cliffs. . It has rows of prettily-painted traditional fishermen's cottages, a beach and is one of the most beautiful villages in Scotland. It has a nice old-fashioned family feel to it, with its own butcher and bakers (not a candlestick maker although there used to be a candle-maker).
The local pub, the Garden Arms is 100 yards away from the front door of Mitchell's Cottage and has a roaring fire, no tv, and no mobile phone reception so is the perfect place to get to know the locals. It also does great food at the weekend.
There are gorgeous walks around the village or simply stay at home with a dram in front of the open traditional fire.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
