Cove Bay Hotel is an 1800s coaching inn set above the North Sea on the south side of Aberdeen, in the old fishing village of Cove. It brings together sea facing rooms, an award winning restaurant and a village bar known as The Cover, where locals and guests gather for a pint. Rooms feature Harris tweed furnishings and sea views, with breakfast cooked to order each morning. The Charleston Suite offers private dining for special occasions, while the restaurant serves dishes such as Peterhead haddock and a Sunday roast with skirlie. The hotel is close to Aberdeen's ring road, with castles, distilleries, championship golf courses and dolphin watching all within easy reach, and the city centre only fifteen minutes away by taxi.
