Aptly named ‘Making Waves’, this stunning property sits right on the sea shore in the pretty fishing port of Cellardyke on the east Fife coast. Enjoying a unique position and furnished and equipped to an excellent standard with Sky Sports, Wi-Fi and three good sized bedrooms, the property couldn’t be better placed for exploring the Fife coastline. The property has beautiful views towards May Island, Bass Rock and North Berwick Law from the kitchen, dining room and master bedroom. Outside the south facing garden looks right over the shore, the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine and watch the fishing boats sailing by. A short stroll brings you to the neighbouring town of Anstruther, which has a good selection of shops, pubs and The Cellar Restaurant, holder of 3AA rosettes and UK seafood restaurant of the year. For the more energetic, the Fife Coastal Path runs for 150km nearby, and for cyclists, the Millennium Cycle Way has 300 miles of quiet country roads, disused railways and forest tracks to explore. Look out for boat trips to the Isle of May, a National Nature Reserve where you can spot puffins and seals. Boats leave from the port at Anstruther between April and September.

An excellent cottage. Ideal for a family. The views from the upstairs balcony and bedroom are fantastic. The rooms are very comfortable and spacious. 2 bathrooms make such a difference. A well equipped kitchen and dining room. Patio doors in the longe into a lovely garden with see views. The best place I have stayed in and I've been coming to Anstruther for several years now. I would definitely recommend it and hope to cone here again next year.

Es ist eine sehr schöne Wohnung direkt am Meer. Wir waren mit einem 9 Monate alten Baby da. Es war alles vorhanden wie beschrieben auch ein Hochstuhl. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und es war ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt.
