Beautifully presented and well equipped accommodation. Lots of little extras. Lovely views from both sides of the cottage. We enjoyed watching the family of roe deer in the fields as well as swifts, swallows and housemartins each day, occasionally a hare too.Very peaceful location, easy parking. Less than a mile from a retail park with all the shops you need. We loved Fife, visited St Andrews, lots of fishing villages, the secret bunker, Culross, Falkland Palace, Britannia and Edinburgh Botanical Gardens. Central Edinburgh with all its attractions is just a short rail journey, with free parking at Kirkcaldy Rail Station.

Dothan farm cottage was a really lovely decorated home with comfortable beds and parking space in front of the house. In general we enjoyed staying there. There is a kitchen, but it was really basic. For a family who loves to cook, it was difficult to get around. For example there were no big pots, so cooking noodles or potatoes for four people was a challenge. In the late evening there was also no hot water in the shower. So taking a hot shower after a long day hiking was not possible. But that is probably something easy to change.

Perfectly situated for Edinburgh, Fife, Perthshire and surrounding areas. A lovely, quiet, cosy, spotlessly clean cottage with views of the fields. Plenty of parking and a stone’s throw from shops and restaurants. Very helpful owner - we will certainly be booking again.
