Thanks for your lovely review Jackie, I'm pleased that you both enjoyed the cottage and the beautiful countryside walks all around. I look forward to welcoming you back and your sweet, little Ruby who is so well behaved. We do love to welcome dogs along with their owners and appreciate when owners enjoy our lovely gardens together with their pets and clean up immediately as you did. So a big thankyou!

Everything exceeded our expectations. Kate and Cameron were extremely welcoming and the cottage was equipped with everything we could need, plus extra touches. Great advice on local walks and things to do in the area, but also loved the warmth and comfort of the cottage to come back to, particularly the sitting-room with its blankets, board games and DVDs etc! Wish we could have stayed longer and will certainly be back.

Beautiful location

Lovely stay with Kate and Cameron who were fantastic hosts who were very generous with their time; nothing was too much trouble even sharing their own private garden. The cottage was lovely and peaceful with every little thing thought of. We will definitely return.

Lovely little cottage within a lovely area.

Great central place to stay with lots of lovely walks near by and the loch is fabulous. Lots to do although the weather was wet on our stay but if it had been different we would’ve done more! Lots of lovely golf courses nearby and ST Andrews is a must visit for any golf lover! Kate and Cam gave us a lovely welcome and lots of tips on the best places thank you!!

Lovely cottage, great location, warm hosts

A tastefully modern updating of an historic cottage; with warm rooms and plenty of space; well-equipped and well positioned for visiting the coast (e.g. Anstruther), Highlands (e.g. Pitlochry) or historic places (e.g. Stirling). Very pleasant hosts. Recommended for couples or families with teens / grown-up children.
