🥃 MALT OF THE MONTH 🥃

Don’t let the number fool you… 👀

This month it’s GlenAllachie 7 Year Old – Hungarian Virgin Oak — and it was my choice pick from a recent tour and tasting at Glenallachie Distillery.

A cracking dram and proof that age isn’t everything when it comes to whisky. 🥃

Kyla was a fantastic guide, so if you’re staying at Sea Crest and enjoy whisky, we’d definitely recommend the GlenAllachie tour. 🥃

Then come back to the Whisky Snug and enjoy a dram of your own. 😉

Imagine waking up here…🌊
Sea Crest, Cullen

10/09/2026

Two cottages. One stunning coastline. 🌊💙

You may know us as Sea Crest or Hill Crest — but did you know Sea Crest is Hill Crest’s baby brother?

Sea Crest — beachfront 🌊
Hill Crest — clifftop 🌅

Different views, different character, but the same love of this special corner of the Moray Coast.

If you’re considering a stay, we’d love you to book directly with us. It means dealing with us personally, from your first enquiry to the moment you arrive.

So if you’re thinking of a Cullen escape - you just need to decide on beachfront or clifftop! Message us to book direct. 📩

As the days get visibly shorter, we can’t help but reminisce about those not-so-distant summer nights. 🌅✨

Busy pier, golden sunsets and evenings that seemed to last forever. ❤️

Roll on next summer…☀️

Welcome back to Sea Crest, ladies! 💙

It was lovely to welcome our girls from Anstruther back to Cullen for their second stay. It seems their favourite part of Sea Crest hasn’t changed and the “Champagne Snug” was once again put to good use! 😂🥂

As expected they packed a lot into their stay including visits to the Oak, some dookin, a sauna and a few drams with Braveheart!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thank you for returning, ladies. We loved having you back in Cullen! 🌊✨

Then & now… 🥃✨

A little look back at Sea Crest before the Whisky Snug came to life.

What was once a simple little room is now one of our favourite spaces at Sea Crest — a cosy spot to sit back, enjoy the view and savour a dram. 🥃🌊
