Peaceful Cottage

We had a lovely short break at Well Cottage in Ceres. The property was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The owners gave us a warm welcome. Well Cottage is located in beautiful surroundings with everything you need close to hand. It is an ideal location to visit St. Andrews, Cupar and many other charming areas of Scotland.

We loved our very first stay at Well Cottage.

We loved our very first stay at Well Cottage. Such an amazing find. The cottage is in a perfect location and has catered for all the exploring of the nearby wonderful beaches with our furry boy. Thoughtful welcoming touches for guests including the furry guests. Such a gem of a cottage to come back to and relax after long days out. We can’t wait for our return in 2021.

Bill & Lesley should be rightly proud of their little cottage.

Bill & Lesley should be rightly proud of their little cottage. It is immaculate. The location is ideal for exploring the Kingdom of Fife, with the village of Ceres itself having all you need - butcher, convenience store and the pub. The cottage also has everything you need, even an iPod dock. The bed was king sized and very comfortable; the kitchen had all the appliances you need for a comfortable self-catering few days, or longer. We had a wonderfully relaxing five days. Thank you.
