Indulge in long walks through magnificent northern Scotland when Rex accompanies you on this break to the Pitgaveny Estate. Sleeping two guests, the delightful, one-bedroom, dog-friendly cottage makes a great option for couples or friends eager to discover the beauty of the Morayshire coast. Situated 3 miles from Elgin and 4.5 miles from Lossiemouth, it is nestled on a farm with an orchard. The cottage also has a garden for Rex to enjoy and a wood burner for everyone to cosy up beside.

Dry Rex’s feet in the porch, hang his lead and untie walking boots before heading inside together. At the heart of the property is a generous, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with ample room for Rex to stroll about and stretch out. Rustle up tasty homecooked meals here with the Scottish produce you have sourced, then feed Rex in the kitchen and lay the table for your own delicious dinners. Spend your evenings together beside a blazing wood burner, with Rex curled up on the carpet and the two of you enjoying a good film on the Smart TV from the comfort of the sofa. The family shower room is also downstairs, while the bedroom is up on the first-floor mezzanine. Here there are zip-and-link beds that can be arranged either as a super-king-size or as twins if discussed in advance. Choose between the front and back gardens when taking Rex outside for some fresh air. Light the BBQ and have dinner on the deck or a glass of wine in the summer house while your furry friend noses about.

Stroll just under 1 mile to impressive Spynie Castle, which was the seat of the bishops of Moray for 500 years and where Rex is also welcome. He can also accompany you as you follow trails alongside nearby Loch Spynie.

A total dream for people wanting a quiet and beautiful space to hang out with their dog with countryside walks on your doorstep and wide stretching beaches a short drive away. We appreciated the inclusion of the baby gate to block the staircase as it's a dog no-go zone upstairs. As it's a working farm...it's a great place to get your dog used to liRead morevestock (on the lead) as both gardens are well enclosed. Loved the tiny lambs in the field next to the back garden, wonderful! Hide
