A spokeswoman said: "We were called just before 4am with reports of a fire in Lossiemouth.
"Three people were taken to Dr Grays hospital. Two adults have been transferred to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary."
A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service spokeswoman said: "Operations Control mobilised a number of fire engines to the town's Macdonald Drive, where firefighters were met by a fire within a two storey property.
"Crews currently remain on the scene working to extinguish the fire."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
