Another great stay with the Duffus Estate - this is my fourth stay now having stayed in two of their properties in total. The lodge has a lovely feel to it, very cosy, well maintained and the staff are simply amazing - they’re ‘hands off’ (which I really like) but are always available at the end of the phone if you need somebody. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

We were visiting my son and partner who is based at Lossie. We were looking for a 2 bedroom place and of course what would allow our dog. The Lodge was perfect, booking was simple and full information given. Easy instructions to get into the property, the welcome pack for us was fantastic. Eggs, bread home made jam, all sorts! Also one for our dog, very thoughtful. Beautiful decorated and too our taste, wonderful log burner and fully equipped kitchen. Everything was fantastic, maybe the water pressure in for the shower could have been stronger, but that’s not e negative just a suggestion.

I had stayed at The Lodge previously and I booked it again for me and my daughter who was visiting from Canada and my labradoodle dog. It was as brilliant as before - beautiful paths through the Estate, near the sea, cozy log burner. The only bad part is that I got the days mixed up and we ended up leaving a full day earlier than we had booked. We both missed having that extra day!

A perfect break away in the lodge with the place being absolutely immaculate. The wood burner was welcome of a chilly evening and I love the ‘hands off’ approach of the owners - although there is always someone available by phone if required. Highly recommend. This is my first time in the lodge but my third time staying in Duffus Estate properties and I don’t think you can find better.

Another lovely relaxing stay at The Lodge. This is the perfect place for the three of us. Close to beautiful beaches for walks and swims and the airbase for watching aeroplanes. We have been staying on the Duffus Estate for a few years and always find somewhere new to explore. Looking forward to another stay soon.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lodge. Was so nice and clean and perfectly put together with everything you can need. Beautiful garden and located to everything we wanted to see. Caroline was one of the nicest folks to deal with if I had any questions. Gemma was also great. Don’t forget to visit the castle and stop by the little coffee hut. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

The Lodge is lovely and quiet, there's a little noise from the road but not much. We were very comfortable and had everything we needed plus some wonderful extras like milk, bread rolls, butter and fresh eggs. Such a kind, thoughtful host. The beds are extremely comfortable and we were very cosy with the log burner going in the evenings. Beautiful gentle walks in the woods, big safe garden for the dogs to play .It did take us a little while to figure out how to lock and unlock the front door, there is a knack to it. Wonderful places to walk with the dogs and Duffus Castle is worth a visit especially as Kula coffee hut is great I highly recommend the hot chocolate also the white chocolate and raspberry cookies.

I really cannot fault our stay at the Lodge. Every last detail was catered for and everything from start to finish was exceptional. The accommodation, the grounds, the equipment and the local delicacies were all first class. We will definitely be back.
