Location

Cruden Bay is one of Aberdeenshire’s coastal jewels—an enchanting seaside village famed for its sweeping golden beach, dramatic clifftop walks, and rich local history. Nestled along Scotland’s rugged northeast coast, the bay is hugged by dunes and backed by the iconic ruins of Slains Castle, which famously inspired Bram Stoker’s “Dracula.”

The harbour itself is a postcard-perfect scene, dotted with colourful boats and steeped in the legacy of fishing and maritime life. The conservation area where The Old Coastguard Cottage sits offers a rare chance to live where heritage meets horizon.

Beyond the charm, Cruden Bay is a thriving community with a local shop, primary school, hotel, and cosy pub—all within walking distance. For golfers, the championship Cruden Bay Golf Club offers world-class links play with sea views to rival anywhere in the world.

Ideally located just off the A90, you’re within easy reach of Peterhead, Ellon, and Aberdeen—making it perfect for commuters, holiday seekers, or anyone simply longing to live by the sea.

Whether you're downsizing, investing, or starting fresh, Cruden Bay welcomes you with open skies, salt air, and scenery that never gets old
