A clean, warm, welcoming cottage with a generously sized living room and all mod cons. We stayed in dark December so our daylight hours were short but we were pleased to find so many areas to walk within a short drive of the cottage (as well as from the door). It’s just ten minutes’ drive from the historic coastal village of Culross and maybe twenty minutes into Dunfermline if you need major shops and restaurants.Don’t be put off by the slightly scruffy cottage exterior - this place is lovely inside!

Lovely cosy cottage in rural location with beautiful art on display throughout, comfortable furniture and great garden for the dog. Parking was a bit tricky but figured it out. Would love to visit again!

This stay in Oakley really surpased our expectations. From start to finish it was wonderful - the fireplace, the nature around, even the welcome gift. The place was extremely cozy and clean, the owner was very responsive and helped us get to the cottage.
