Things to do nearby

As Rosebay Cottage is superbly located in the heart of Findhorn village, all the village amenities as well as the beach, are within a short stroll.

Findhorn Village

The village sits beside the shallow waters of Findhorn Bay, a Nature Reserve where the River Findhorn eventually flows into the Moray Firth. This sheltered bay is home to thousands of migrating wildfowl and wading birds as well as being a haven for sailors and water sport enthusiasts.

Sand & Nature

A stroll along the waterfront will take you to a very sheltered, sandy beach. A little further over the sand dunes, takes you beyond Findhorn Bay to the Moray Firth and an extensive stretch of beach with lots of sand at low tide, when seals are regularly seen on the sand banks.

Eat Local

With our local Bakehouse market & coffee shop, the Village shop and Post Office, two friendly pubs on the bay and the Captain’s Table for refreshments by the beach, there’s plenty to support and enjoy! The town of Forres just 3 miles away has a supermarket when needed.

Findhorn & Beyond

A Water Taxi takes you across to the wilder beaches on the other side of the Bay; view our seal colony on the way and look out for Ospreys fishing for salmon in the summer months. There’re plenty of sailing, kayaking and paddleboarding options and the beautiful Moray Coast path offers cycling and walking from the village into the stunning surroundings, villages and towns. Just a 45 minute drive will take you into fabulous Cairngorm National Park.
