The Loft- charming character cottage in East Neuk

The Loft is a striking and charming property, full of character. With two double bedrooms it is ideal for up to four guests. The wood burning stove in the lounge is a great place to unwind after a day exploring the many delights of the East Neuk. Sit back and watch the sea below, you'll be mesmerised by the sounds of the waves rolling in or enjoy the fabulous vistas from the tiered garden. With a well equipped kitchen, dining area, family bathroom and WC, The Loft is a hidden gem.

The Loft is accessed through a private lane (stairs) and has a quirky and endearing layout. Both bedrooms, the bathroom and WC are on the entry level, with the dining kitchen and lounge on the upper level. With all windows sea facing, there are wonderful views to enjoy from both bedrooms and the lounge. Sitting on a hill just one street back from the shore, The Loft has a prime position yet is secluded and quiet.
The Coastal Path can be reached within a moment's walk and there is no shortage of things to see and do in the East Neuk and surrounding areas. From golf to watersports, fish and chips to a plethora of fresh local produce within many quality restaurants you'll be wishing you had more time to explore this excellent location.
Parking is available on street.

Lovely cottage, garden needs addressed

Had a really nice stay at The Loft. A few issues trying to use the controller for the heating, maybe a bit more info would be good. Had to contact the owner to get logs for the wood burner. The garden could definitely do with some TLC. Great location. Overall a nice stay.
