Family break

Fantastic property for a family with extensive views over the Firth of Forth. This is a very large property with an enormous lounge / dining room / and well stocked kitchen looking down to the firth. Large safe garden for the kids to play. An extra bonus for the adults is a small lounge outside one of the bedrooms. We hope to return.

Wonderful 4Bed/4Bath house with Expansive “Firthview”

Property was exactly as pictured/described. Beautiful view out of ample Family Room in back of house. Saw pheasants in surrounding fields. Good proximity to St. Andrews and Anstruther. Beds and bedding were good. Kitchen was decently equipped, French press for coffee. Communication from Property Management Company was great close to stay. A couple of minor items: -Water not connected to refrigerator, so no ice cubes. -Could use some luggage stands in the rooms or even a chair or two in the bedrooms. -Surface cleaned, that is cob webs and spiders in corners.
