About the host

Host profile image
Hi! We’re Karin and Adam, passionate travelers, nature lovers, and the proud hosts of Aurora on the Dunes. Having explored Scotland from top to bottom and ventured across the world, we’ve experienced everything from luxury escapes to off-the-beaten-path adventures. Through it all, we’ve come to appreciate the little things that make a stay truly special—a warm welcome, a cozy space, and those thoughtful touches that make you feel at home.

We fell in love with Lossiemouth’s rugged coastline, endless sandy beaches, and breathtaking views, and we knew this was the perfect place to create a seaside retreat where guests could unwind and experience Scotland’s natural beauty.

We absolutely adore our fur baby, which is why Aurora on the Dunes is dog-friendly—we know how important it is to bring your four-legged companion on your travels! However, due to severe allergies, we unfortunately can’t accommodate cats. We’re truly sorry about this and appreciate your understanding.

When we’re not hosting, you’ll find us exploring Scotland’s hidden gems, hiking scenic trails, and discovering new places. We love a good road trip, whether it’s a journey through the Highlands, the islands, or the Speyside Whisky Trail. We also enjoy hunting for the best local cafés, seafood spots, and cozy pubs—and we’re always happy to share our recommendations!

If there’s a chance to spot dolphins, chase a sunset, or enjoy a dram of whisky by the fire, we’ll take it!

We’re passionate about the environment, and this has led us to find ways of keeping things out of landfills. We part-time sell vintage finds in pursuit of this passion, and we also love upcycling and crafting to breathe new life into old treasures. From carefully curated decor to thoughtful sustainable choices, we bring this passion into everything we do—including how we’ve styled Aurora on the Dunes.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the beauty of West Beach, Lossiemouth, and wanted to create a cozy, relaxing retreat where guests can unwind and enjoy the stunning Scottish coast. Lossiemouth is a truly special place, and from the moment we discovered it, we knew it was somewhere we wanted to share with others. There's something magical about the golden sandy beaches, dramatic dunes, and ever-changing coastal skies that make every visit feel like an escape from the everyday.

One of our favorite things to do is walk along West Beach, taking in the fresh sea air and watching the waves roll in. And of course, spotting dolphins in the Moray Firth never gets old! 🐬✨

Lossiemouth is more than just a beautiful seaside town—it’s full of history, charm, and a warm community spirit. Whether it’s enjoying fish and chips by the harbor, exploring the nearby Speyside Whisky Trail, or simply unwinding with a cup of tea while watching the sunset, there’s something for everyone.

We love that it offers the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure, and we’re so happy to be able to share a little piece of it with our guests at Aurora on the Dunes. We hope you’ll love it just as much as we do! 💛

We love sharing our favorite local spots and are always happy to help with recommendations to make your stay extra special. Feel free to reach out with any questions—we can’t wait to host you!
