This is a lovely little cottage in the heart of the Beautiful village of Crail. The cottage is equipped with everything you need & is also dog friendly. There is a very efficient heating system & a powerful shower in the bathroom. The shops are on the doorstep & there is a Bus stop two minutes away. I enjoyed my stay very much.

Lovely cottage and great location. Well stocked and appreciated the wine and Maltesers on arrival. The only negative I would give is the bathroom. It could do with upgrading and I was worried the toilet would stop working but it didn't.

We had a fantastic time at the cottage, which is perfectly placed for the harbour, shops and surrounding villages.Cottage was ideal for the 2 of us and our dog, with the owner thoughtfully providing bowls and treats for Archie. Having an enclosed courtyard (which is a sun trap) was ideal for us to relax in and allow Archie to wander and say hello to the neighbours.Well equipped and comfortable accomodation - we'll definitely be back

Great place to Stay During St Andrew’s Graduation

We booked this wonderful spot in Crail on the recommendation of our son who was graduating from St Andrew’s and we were not disappointed. Although we rented a car we took the Stagecoach 95 bus to St Andrew’s and back that day/night and it couldn’t have been easier. Both the stops north and south are right on High Street outside the gate to the property. There was ample public parking for our rental car which we enjoyed as we toured the East Neuk and went to visit friends in Glasgow. The Co-op is open early and late and has provisions for all your needs but during the day we highly recommend Green’s for groceries. Breakfast/brunch at the Harbour Gallery & Tearoom, The Beehive, and the Golf Hotel. We missed the chance to eat at Shoregate but it looked amazing. I highly recommend for couples or individuals coming in for graduation who do not want to spend St Andrew’s prices on hotels and housing that week.Tip: if you have a rental car venture south to the Ardross Farm Market, great local goods and eat at the Kinneuchar Inn in Kilconquhar.

A quiet relaxing stay in Crail

Lovely cottage, very clean in the centre of Crail, initially it was hard to locate, could have done with details of how to find the property as it is tucked away off of a courtyard.Very comfortable and relaxing and it was lovely sitting in the courtyard when the sun was shining, you had everything you needed in the property and it was nice warm and cozy, would definitely use it again.
