Nice stay by the sea

We had a great week at Seagem Apartment. It offers enough space for a family of four and is very well maintained and equipped. It is also close to the water. The landlady was always approachable and helpful. We would come back anytime as Findhorn is such a lovely little place from which you can also explore the hinterland around Inverness or the Cairngorms National Park.

Seagem, absolute gem.

Booked Seagem as a short break for my wife and myself. We used to holiday in the adjacent caravan park many years ago. Seagem is just the sort of place that we were after. Great size of property, clean, tidy and a home fom home. Lots of local information and well positioned for beach and harbour too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly visit again. Susan, the host, kept us well informed with information about the flat. First class.

Comfortable apartment in great location

This is a really great flat. It's clean, well equipped and comfortable. A beautiful beach is 3 minutes walk away, Findhorn has places to eat but is only a short drive from all tbe facilities in Forres. There's plenty to do locally. The check-in and out process was easy and Susan looked after us well. Can't recommend highly enough.

Excellent family summer holiday

My family and I stayed at Seagem for a week this summer. We regularly stay at Findhorn and this apartment was perfect for us - extremely well equipped, particularly for children, with little extras like cleaning products and kids' toys making it feel like a home from home. The location is perfect - less than 200 yards to the beach, with restaurants, pubs and a small shop even closer. The host was very helpful and friendly, which made our stay even easier. Check in was straightforward. Would highly recommend, we will definitely stay again!

Comfortable, light-filled apartment

The apartment was a good fit for us for our short stay in Findhorn. Clean, warm and comfortable. It felt like there was care taken in setting the place up and Susan was a friendly, warm and responsive ‘host’, proactive and pre-empting what we might need.

Perfect!

This apartment is just a minutes walk to the car park and main entry point for Findhorn beach - the location is perfect, The flat was pristine clean. Lots of thought has been put into making the flat a no hassle stay - plenty of plug points, hangers, all the kitchen utensils you would need, powerful shower and a bath that fills in minutes. I was intending to book the flat for another week but the dreaded Corona Virus meant I had to head home - I will definitely be booking in the future. The welcome pack was delicious and much appreciated.

Homecoming visit

We found this lovely and very comfortable flat to be the ideal base to revisit family and friends in Forres and surrounding area, to enjoy the proximity of the beach for walks and just to relax. Parking was ideal with our own designated spot and the amenities in the flat were excellent from the high quality appliances to the great selection of cooking utensils. We would highly recommend Seagem to anyone visiting Findhorn or anywhere nearby in Moray. We will return without a doubt!

About the host

Hosted by Susan

Richard and Susan purchased this property in 2016. Richard is self-employed, and Susan gave up work ten years ago to bring up their three children. Now that the children are more independent, we were keen to run a holiday home, particularly as we live in an area famed for its scenery and mild climate. Findhorn was an integral part of our childhoods, and those of our children. We are now enjoying helping others discover the beauty of the area.

Why they chose this property

Richard and Susan are local people who spent much of their childhoods on the beautiful local beaches of Findhorn, Roseisle and Burghead and know what a fantastic place this is for a holiday. Although their three children are now grown, they too enjoyed the beaches, the crab fishing on the pier, collecting seashells, creating pebble pictures and sandcastles and, of course, splashing in the waves!

What makes this property unique

Whenever we first stepped into the apartment, we loved it. The main living area of open plan living/dining/kitchen is part of one of the three towers forming the communal building, built in 1998. It has curved walls and a lovely full length window bringing in light and sun. We love the view from the main bedroom. The apartment is in a good location with shops, coffee shop, eating places and the beach/bay just a few minutes walk away. The two bathrooms are an added bonus.
