An exceptional setting with a very attentive and friendly host. The garden setting in this very quaint village was idyllic and our breakfast delivery each morning a delight. The restoration of this ancient structure creates a very historic feel for the guests. Good location to run around Fife - we had a lovely tour up the coast to St Andrew’s and also made a day trip to Edinburgh and Culross. A lovely stay for our small group.

Really nice cottage, well furnished and well equipped as long as you don't want to do much cooking (we didn't so it was perfect). The hosts were friendly and helpful and provided fantastic breakfast delivered to our door every day.

A fabulous cottage in a beautiful village

Situated right beside the Falkland Castle and right off the High Street, this lovely cottage is built in a former stone ruin. The space is very comfortable, beautifully designed and complete with everything you would need. The hosts are very friendly and helpful and the breakfast they offered is very good. I loved this cottage and by staying here was able to enjoy one of the most quaint villages in Scotland with lots to see and do. The highlight of my 2 week trip was staying here.

Terrific!

My wife, our niece, and I stayed here for 3 nights. It was fabulous!. The proprietor, John, was so helpful. He has thought of everything. He brought us a delicious breakfast each morning, and had wonderful suggestions for hikes and sightseeing. Falkland is a lovely small town, and makes for a great home base for exploring central Scotland. We loved exploring the trails through the Falkland estate, walking in the Lomond hills, and the palace, of course, which is right next door. We definitely want to come back.

Great wee hideaway

We really enjoyed our time in the area, property was quite small for our family but that meant we were up and out early each morning. As per other reviews the breakfast was magnificent each morning, granola probably the best I have ever tasted. John was very pleasant throughout and also helped out with a ketchup emergency when the chippy in Cupar didn't have any for the kids! Would highly recommend and will be back.
