An ideally located house for exploring Fife. Lots to see and do within a few miles. Very spacious house, very clean and in a nice quiet location. However, the house and contents are very tired and would benefit from some upgrading. This did not detract from our stay and we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

This is the perfect place to stay when visiting the charming village of Crail. It is so close to the village center, the harbor, and the Coastal Path. The bus to St. Andrew’s is a 2 minute walk. The house is very well equipped, clean and comfortable. Great communication with owner. Easy access upon arrival. Thanks for the fantastic stay!!!

The house was very spacious and clean, the kitchen was well equipped with everything needed ,the welcome basket was a nice touch ,there were a few minor things that stopped me giving it 5 stars ,the armchair in the lounge had a very big tear on the arm,the toilet seat in the master bedroom was loose due to a broken hinge, and the stair carpet is badly frayed and worn the top step is actually a trip hazard. The property has a lovely garden which attracts lots a birds ,at twilight our grand kids enjoyed watching the bats from the conservatory. The property is just across from a swing park with tennis courts and and football goals .An easy walk to shops and the most picturesque harbour We had a lovely time and a bit of TLC to the property would have been 5 stars.
