Guest Reviews
- Mattia (10/5): Fantastico - Si trova affacciata sul porto il che la rende meravigliosa! L host è gentilissimo e disponibilissimo! La camera accogliente e dotata di ogni confort! Ottima colazione! Stra consigliato
- Mikko (7/5): - Nice and clean accommodation. Nice breakfast buffet! Nothing negative about the stay, but the village was not our favourite.
- Linda (10/5): Paul is a great host, our room was spotless the bed was really comfortable, I loved watching the tide go in and out from - Great location on the harbour practically next door to a couple of the best pubs and restaurants in Stonehaven.
The footpath to Dunnottar Castle is just around the corner. Nothing
- Daren (10/5): Lovely stay on the harbour. - Great location on the harbour. Very clean and comfortable. Public use kitchen and dining area great. Paul was a wonderful host and was very kind and helpful. Hike directly to Dunnottar Castle from Harbour. Harbour webcam so you can wave to friends and family while you’re there. Parking on the harbour is convenient. Nothing
- Nias Ralph (10/5): -
- Eric (10/5): Maison d’hôtes pleine de charme au milieu d’un petit port tout aussi charmant - Tout : l’accueil chaleureux, les explications, la gentillesse, … Le fait de n’y avoir passé qu’une seule nuit
- Raymond (10/5): - The location was great and the view of the harbor from our room was terrific.
- Denny (10/5): Ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt im schönen Stonehaven - Paul war ein sehr freundlicher Gastgeber! Man fühlt sich sofort wohl, sobald man angekommen ist. Die Lage ist phänomenal im wunderschönen Hafen von Stonehaven. Sehr schöne Restaurants in der Nähe. Parkplätze sind ausreichend vorhanden und bis zum Dunnottar Castle ist es nicht weit entfernt.
Das Frühstück war ebenfalls klasse!!! Alles super!
- Michael D (9/5): - Great spot for us. Clean, comfy, easy parking. Easy walk to a number of nearby restaurants and the downtown area. Included breakfast was via selection of simple options but quite good. Nothing comes to mind.
- Michel (9/5): -
- patricia (8/5): Lovely location. Excellent continental breakfast. Would love to stay again. - Lovely location. Quiet. Close to all amenities. Comfortable beds. Fabulous continental breakfast. Nothing, had a fabulous stay.
- Richard (10/5): It was very good. - The owner was very helpful.
- Rambaud (7/5): - Notre chambre donnait sur un mur latéral alors que la maison était sur le port .et qu'elle n'était pas pleine !
Le petit déjeuner inclus n'était pas servi . Le propriétaire charmant pas ailleurs nous a indiqué où trouver le pain le beurre le café et le thé et nous a pries de débarrasser la table .
Pas très élégant...
- Stephanie (9/5): Sehr sehr schön - Lage Eher kleines Zimmer

- Alex (10/5): Great location. Host was super nice and the hospitality was wonderful. Several excellent restaurants with a two-minute - Location; comfort; cleanliness Nothing
- Sabine (9/5): -
- Iain (10/5): Fantastic Place and a Perfect Host - Perfect location for our night out in Stonehaven. Which I highly recommend.
- Juliana (10/5): - Literie très confortable nous avons été très bien accueilli et la vue et sublime :) petit déjeuné inclus c’était parfait
- Wade (10/5): One of the best guest houses we have ever stayed in 😁 - As soon as we got to the property Paul made us feel extremely welcome. The breakfast was the best we had seen . The rooms were very clean and the showers had good pressure and were hot. We have nothing negative to say about this property.
- Jürgen (8/5): Der Aufenthalt war prima, gerne wieder - Die Lage ist hervorragend, man geht quasi zur Tür raus und ist sofort am Hafenbecken. Das Frühstück war in Ordnung. Im Gegensatz zu einigen anderen vergleichbaren Unterkünften muss man hier jedoch ein wenig aktiver sein beim Frühstück und sich die Zutaten selber in der Küche Zusammensuchen, um sie dann im Speiseraum zu verzieren. Aber damit kann man leben. Es hat uns alles prima gefallen wir würden die Unterkunft empfehlen und auch wiederkommen
- Gianfranco (10/5): - La simpatia dell'hotel, la posizione, la tranquillità e anche la colazione anche se non c'era il caffè espresso... La camera un pochino piccola
- Paul (10/5): Excellent location, value and extremely well presented. - Excellent value for money! The guesthouse was spotless, beautifully presented, and had everything you could need. Paul’s service was flawless — friendly, welcoming, and professional. Highly recommend!
- Keith (10/5): Very pleased with our choice of accommodation along side the key side. - Continental self service breakfast, everything and more for our requirements.
Paul very informative about things to do and places for an evening meal. Nothing, perfect stay.
- Helen (10/5): -
- Colin (10/5): - We liked everything! Staff were amazing, the room is a little tight but very comfortable and the location trumps all! It didn't take us more than 20 minutes in Stonehaven to realize we should have booked 2 nights!
- teoemiliani (9/5): Una chicca scozzese sul mare del nord - Paul, l'host, è stato super disponibile, gentile e chiaro durante il check in.
la colazione è veramente fornita per ogni tipo di necessità (porridge, yogurt, dolce, salato, caffè, tè, ecc.)
la posizione è eccezionale, parcheggio davanti la struttura, vista sul molo fantastica (se c'è bel tempo, l'alba è super), molto vicina la castello di Dunnottar. la nostra camera era un pò piccolina, ma per una notte va più che bene
- Murcho (10/5): It's a unique, picturesque place to stay, with bars and restaurants (Inc. Ship In) in the street. - It was the perfect B&B even though we weren't expecting breakfast.
We thought we were staying at a holiday home, but Paul was on site, and supplied everything you would want for a continental breakfast, and asked us for anything extra we desired, and would pick it up during the day. The only thing I can think of is, it would be good to have a bar fridge in your room, even though you have all the fridge space you need in the kitchen on the second floor.
- Pär (9/5): -
- Toni (10/5): Stunning! We didn’t want to leave! - We chose to stay in the area of Stonehaven mainly to visit the Dunnottar Castle, which was amazing, but we experienced much more than that during our stay here. Shorehead Guesthouse is beautiful and in a fantastic location, right on the little harbour. Our host, Paul is friendly and offered suggestions for dining and adventures in the area.
The breakfast was great, we helped ourselves to an array of quality food and beverages and Paul was on hand for anything we required. The view from the dining/living room was stunning.
- Robyn (10/5): - Great host, great location and lovely rooms.
Paul was very welcoming and a great host.
Would not hesitate to recommend.
- CHIARA (9/5): Un giorno a stonehaven. - Posizione splendida, accanto trovi luoghi dove mangiare. Dal b&b puoi a piedi raggiungere in poco meno di 1 ora le rovine del castello di dunnottar.
- Neil (9/5): Gorgeous guest house - The decor, the homeliness and friendly owner.
The location is stunning being right on the harbour front. Nothing
- cristina (9/5): -
- Torbjørn (10/5): -
- Christopher (10/5): Great stay. Relaxed and friendly place. - Great location Friendly atmosphere
- Scott (9/5): Stunning in Stonehaven - Location was superb, it was a well appointed room with a very comfortable bed, breakfast was lovely as was the host.
- Elanor (10/5): Warm and welcoming home right by the water. - Shorehead guesthouse is in a stunning location in Stonehaven right across from the bay and next to at several restaurant/pubs and the trailhead to Dunnottar Castle. Our room and en suite bathroom were very clean and comfortable, but the most notable feature here was the full living room/breakfast room and the extensive help yourself breakfast complete with bakery bread and French press. Paul, our host, was on-site and extremely accomodating and helpful. Honestly I can't think of any drawbacks except that I wish we could have stayed longer.
- Elisa (8/5): -
- Robin (10/5): - Paul is an excellent host who carefully arranges everything to accommodate his guests needs.His friendly hospitality offers a welcoming check in. A generous, varied breakfast menu makes for a great start to the day in a really attractive and interesting fishing harbour setting with some excellent restaurants and walks. We greatly enjoyed our anniversary weekend at Shorehead Guesthouse. N/A
- John (9/5): - Lovely guest house with marina views. Smallish but comfortable, clean room. Paul was a very gracious host and runs a very guest-friendly place. Beautiful lounge with great views over the marina. While the included breakfast was "only" continental, it was more than satisfactory. Wish we could have stayed in the town an extra couple of days! A bit limited for restaurants an easy walk away but we had a fantastic dinner 2 minute walk away at the Tolbooth.
- Nancy (10/5): A great choice - Great host, excellent breakfast options, perfect location. We were very impressed Nothing
- David (10/5): -
- Giulia (8/5): È stato un soggiorno piacevole, Stonehaven è un paesino portuale molto caratteristico - Tutto, l'host gentilissimo e disponibile. Mette anche a disposizione il locale cucina per prepararsi i pasti e la colazione. Il frigo è super fornito!! Le stanze sono un po'piccoline, ma la struttura è una guest house quindi immagino non sia così facile migliorare questo aspetto. In ogni caso per un soggiorno di qualche notte va benissimo!
- Stefanie (9/5): - Paul ist ein super freundlicher Gastgeber, der immer ansprechbar war, Tipps gegeben und sich wahnsinnig viel Mühe gegeben hat, uns eine gute Zeit zu bereiten. Angenehmer Frühstücksraum, sehr gute Auswahl an süßen Produkten. Unkomplizierte Parksituation, nachts war es angenehm ruhig im Hafen.
- Keith (10/5): -
- Bonn (8/5): - Mycket vänligt och tillmötesgående värd. Smidig incheckning. Underbar utsikt mot vattnet från rummet. Bra att det var möjligt att öppna fönstret och få in luft.
- Michaela (10/5): Skvělé ubytování v přístavu - Skvělý podkrovní pokoj s výhledem na přístav v krásném kamenném domě přímo v přístavu. Celý dům i pokoj byly velmi čisté a vkusně zařízené. Postele byly pohodlné, dobře se v nich spalo. Koupelna sice maličká, to je dáno dispozicí podkroví, ale dostačující. Huňaté, měkké ručníky a osušky. Ocenili jsme příjemný a pohodlný obývací pokoj s krbem a jídelnou, který je společný pro všechny hosty v domě. Ráno snídaně připomínala domov, neboť jsme si mohli v kuchyni vzít k jídlu, co jsme našli a na co jsme měli chuť, všeho bylo dost. Výborný chleba s křupavou kůrkou. V neposlední řadě musím vyzdvihnout osobnost majitele Paula, který je skvělý, starostlivý a díky němu jsme se zde cítili výborně. Parkování hned před domem na nábřeží zdarma nebyl problém. Několik skvělých restaurací je pár metrů od domu. Výchozí bod pro procházku k hradu Dunnottar. Modrá obloha a jasné slunce byly bonus na závěr.
- kristina (10/5): Location was perfect, our room was wonderful , had the best shower . Fantastic place - The location is fantastic , the breakfast was really well organised and had everything that you needed. nothing

- Sabrina (9/5): -
- Ian (10/5): -
- Philipp (7/5): - Breakfast and facilities very nice
outside Appearance of accomodation very nice
Good location Furniture in our room remembers a bit to red light district - everything mirrowed and sequins on covers
- Stephanie (10/5): - Die Lage war perfekt und das Guesthouse total einladend und sauber. Unser Zimmer war riesig und hatte eine grandiose Aussicht auf den Hafen!
Wir wurden von Paul super herzlich empfangen und er hat uns immer wieder Tips für Ausflüge gegeben.
- Heidi Sofie (10/5): Helt fantastisk, anbefales på det varmeste! - Byen er en perle, å få bo så flott midt i det vakre sentrumet var helt fantastisk. Verten var blid og hyggelig. Vi hadde en reise på natten før vi kom til stonehaven hvor vi så og si ikke hadde sovet, så værten jobbet så raskt han kunne for å få rommet vårt raskt ferdig. Vi fikk dessuten tilbud om å bytte til et ledig rom slik at vi kunne hvile oss. Det kaller jeg service! Ingen ting!
- Peduto (10/5): -
- Filippo S (9/5): - Guest House molto carina con una fantastica posizione sul porto di Stonehaven. Comoda per visitare la città o per andare a piedi al castello di Dunnottar. Camera piccola ma molto graziosa e curata.
Parcheggio per l'auto comodo di fronte alla struttura sulla strada, dove non si deve pagare.
Essendo una guest house c'è una bella cucina a disposizione fornita di tutto il necessario per prepararsi da soli una bella colazione. Latte, té, caffè, succo di frutta, pane tostato, burro, marmellata, biscotti, formaggi e prosciutto ecc. Molto carina la sala dove fare colazione o rilassarsi alla sera.
- Caroline (10/5): Wunderbares B&B - Wunderbares B&B direkt am Hafen. Unser Zimmer war sehr liebevoll gestaltet , es gibt einen schönen Essbereich und zum Frühstück ist ausreichend vorhanden. Ich muss mich glutenfrei ernähren, Paul war dabei sehr zuvorkommend Brot zu organisieren. Vielen Dank dafür! --

- Jennifer (10/5): - A rare gem! Very kind and welcoming host. Very clean (and I am very picky). Wonderful experience. Highly recommend.
- Carola (9/5): - Direkt am kleinen urigen Hafen, wir hatten Zimmer mit Blick auf's Wasser, Ankunftsbier und Morgenkaffee draußen genossen, einfach nur schön. Das ist Urlaub.
Parkplatz vor dem Haus.
Freundlicher Gastgeber. Die Variante, sich das (kontinental) Frühstück selber zusammenzustellen, war mal eine neue Erfahrung, d.h. man konnte sich in der Küche bzw am Kühlschrank bedienen. Jeder nimmt nur das, was er braucht, ergibt keinen Abfall. Perfekt. Kein extra Personal notwendig.
Genügend Restaurants sind auch vorhanden. Ggf sollte man rechtzeitig einen Tisch reservieren.
- ALFIO (9/5): Pace e tranquillità sul mare. - La posizione è ottima per la tranquillità. L’Host è molto cordiale. Questa camera non aveva la piena vista mare.
