Gardenstown
Gardenstown: Clifftop Charms & Coastal Heritage
Gardenstown's unique charm is akin to seabirds nesting amidst cliff crevices, with buildings clinging to steep slopes, offering stunning vistas of the bay.
Discover the village's history as it grew vertically towards the sea, with houses tiered above the harbour, providing envy-inducing views of the picturesque bay.
Explore Gardenstown's quaint harbour, now bustling with small creel boats and pleasure craft, and visit the seasonal Gardenstown Heritage Centre for insights into its fishing industry and past.
Embark on a coastal path linking Gardenstown with Crovie, perfect for dolphin spotting and seabird watching. Don't miss the haunting ruins of St. John's Kirk, a reminder of Gardenstown's tumultuous past.
Getting There
Head north from Aberdeen by car via the A90 and A948. There is a bus via Macduff operated by Stagecoach.
