Cookney is a hamlet in Aberdeenshire, Scotland in proximity to Netherley in the Mounth of the Grampian Highlands. The community is situated on a hilltop approximately 5 miles (8 km) northwest of Stonehaven, about 3 miles (5 km) northwest of the Bridge of Muchalls, and about 2 miles (3 km) west of Muchalls Castle. From Cookney a portion of the ancient route of the Causey Mounth is visible to the east near Whinward Farm, although the track is not truly recognizable from that distance. The Cookney Church is a prominent historic landmark of Cookney.
The Cookney Church was erected in the village in 1816 on lands owned by the Muchalls Castle Estate.
The new A90 road passes close by but there is no junction. Cookney Primary School was closed with pupils transferred to the new Newtonhill Primary School in 1969.
