About this property

Resting in the heart of Crail, this well-presented stone-built cottage is the ideal base to enjoy a rural getaway in Scotland. 16 Westgate South is a charming two-bed cottage, boasting stunning sea views, and over looking a beautiful sandy beach, ideal for a romantic retreat or family adventure. On entering the property, you are welcomed by a homely living room where you can spend your evenings cosied up on the sofa with a good book or huddled around the coffee table enjoying a board game with your loved ones. Moving through the cottage to the contemporary kitchen, where you can rustle up an evening meal after a day exploring the rugged Scottish coastline or why not pour yourself a glass of wine and head outside to the small patio area, where you can admire views of the sea. Climb the staircase to the first floor and be charmed by the two bedrooms; a well-presented master bedroom with double bed and magnificent coastal views and a room with bunk beds, providing a great place for the kids to rest their eyes. Explore your surroundings and take a stroll along the cobbled streets of Crail and down to the miniature harbour, where you can enjoy freshly caught seafood or just soak up the views. Just a five minute walk takes you to the beautiful sandy beach and the Crail coastal path viewpoint. Whilst staying at the cottage you are perfectly situated to easily explore some of the best sights of Fife; take a scenic boat trip to the Isle of May, enjoy a peaceful picnic at Clatto Reservoir or step back in time and explore the ruins of Lochore Castle. Home to a historic university, St Andrews is just a short drive away from Crail, where you’ll find an array of activities to keep the whole family entertained including the St Andrews Castle and the British Golf Museum. If you’re looking for a dose of the great outdoors, hike a section of the scenic Fife Coastal Path, taking you past dramatic cliffs, along golden sandy beaches and through quaint fishing villages. This well-presented cottage provides the perfect base for a coastal break in Scotland. EPC Rating: Band D

Crail is a charming fishing village resting in the East Neuk of Fife and is home to one of the UK’s most photographed harbours. The cobbled streets are lined with historical buildings including the Tollbooth with its tower dating from 1600, along with a variety of shops, restaurants and takeaways, making it a great base for holidaymakers. The university town of St. Andrews is easily accessible and well-worth a visit with its golfing history or venture to the city of Dundee, roughly 22 miles away.
