A wonderful stay with all we needed; a very comfortable bed, great shower, high quality bedding and towels. Loved the reading material that gave great insight to the area, very informative. Plenty of outside areas to sit and enjoy the sun or cozy up inside to stay out of the rain. Great biscuits ! Warm and welcoming we felt right at home.

The garden shed was an excellent choice for my wife and I. It was clean and well appointed. When booking I was a little apprehensive about the bed being a pullout couch being a large man. The bed/couch was more comfortable than some hotels we have stayed at. Carol is an excellent host. Great location as well. Definitely will return.Thanks again Carol.

Our stay

We found a little gem Carol was a lovely host and made us feel very welcome. It had everything we needed for our stay, the shower was excellent and the bed super comfy. We were lucky to have the weather to take advantage of the patio area when we weren't out exploring the area and swimming in the local sea pool ( within walking distance). We wouldn't hesitate to go back and stay again. Thank you Carol

Two night stay

Comfortable and roomy accommodation which was perfect for visiting family in Anstruther. A very pleasant and easy walk from the centre of Anstruther. A nice quiet location near a bus stop. Accommodation was perfect for me with all of the facilities I needed including a very comfortable bed and a good shower. Would definitely use again.

Perfect for my needs

The house was small, but I knew it would be. The only place that felt cramped was the shower, and I managed it. The pull-out bed was quite comfortable. I didn't need Carol for anything, but if I had I'm confident she would have been immediately responsive.
