Loved the location and property. It was wee and cosy, quirky and arty and very dog friendly. We were blessed with good weather during our 3 days stay and indulged in a lot of coastal walking with our dogs.
This delightful cottage was perfect for us. We loved the quiet location and felt very relaxed as soon as we arrived. All the rooms were spotless and very tastefully decorated with some lovely pieces of local art. Also very close to nice cafes, restaurants and shops.
Very clean and cosy cottage. Very well furnished with every need covered, real home from home. Excellent base for touring about the east neuk of Fife and for the coastal walks.
Lovely cottage, modern fittings and original features blended well. Well equipped and a convenient location. Shame the galleries in the village weren’t open as it was out of season and limited eating out options. Local people friendly and helpful. Would go again
First time in Pittenweem. The flat was small but we didn’t need anything bigger. Space had been used carefully and was well furnished. When the wood burning stove got going it made for a cosy experience. Pleasant seafront area nearby and Anstruther is only half a mile or so away. St. Andrews is about 20 minutes by car. Well worth a short visit (three nights for us).
Easy check in, fantastic property. Would certainly recommend to friends and family staying in the area. Perfect location just along from the two coffee shops
Extremely well equipped ,clean with lovely modern fixtures and super comfy. Great central location yet really quiet and near harbour and coastal walks.
Everything about this property is excellent, the interior is of the highest standard and very homely. Everything we needed was at our fingertips and working very well. Cathy is a great, responsive host.
Apartment was beautifully decorated throughout. We loved the wood burner, it made the room very cosy. The shower was terrific and the bed was very comfortable too.
The cottage was beautiful - very comfortable and well equipped with everything of good quality. We loved the location which was easy walking distance of cafes (both good) and a super restaurant by the harbour. The weather was wet and windy so the wood burning stove was lovely and cosy to come back to after being out and about. We had a great wee break.
The cottage was lovely, clean and tidy when we arrived. A very homely feel and nice quiet location.Nice big shower, bath and log fire, all the things we were looking for. Down to the harbour in minutes, with coffee shops, pubs and shops a couple of minutes walk away.Couldn’t have asked for more.
We had a fabulous time at No 7. So central for all the coast destinations and everything we needed in the house. Hopefully we can return in the not to distant future.
