The Neuk | 4 miles to St Andrews

Cosy Adult-Only Countryside Cottage, a 4-Mile Drive to the Home of Golf | Sleeps 2



The Neuk cottage is situated near Strathkinness in the Kingdom of Fife, a mere 4-mile drive to the ancient Royal Burgh of St Andrews, known globally as the home of golf. The cottage is also a short drive from Leuchars train station, which is great for accessing Edinburgh and is the mainline to London.



The Neuk is the perfect location for a couple looking to relax in a cosy, fully equipped cottage with beautiful countryside and estuary views. Please note The Neuk is adult-only and unfortunately is not suitable for children or babies.





The Space



Offering 50 m² of accommodation, upon entering The Neuk you will find a cosy porch area hosting a dining table and chairs, perfect for your morning coffee or meals in the evening — the porch also has golf club storage. From the porch, you enter the hallway, which leads to the bathroom, living room, and then the fully equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar which seats two. A rear door in the kitchen leads out to the south-facing garden, which is on two levels with a patio area and grass area.



The property has its own private entrance, with a shared footpath from the off-road parking area to The Neuk's entrance. For the comfort and safety of all guests, the use of BBQs is strictly prohibited at this property.

Lodging was in close proximity to St. Andrew’s, easy 5–7 min drive. The Neuk was great- clean, modern, efficient, far enough from the crowds…
