Lovely cottage.Had everything we needed. Such a lovely setting and only a 20 minute walk into Cupar town. Thank you Margo for a lovely weekend. Would definitely recommend a visit.
beautiful quiet little cottage located on the estate with lots of wildlife, deer, rabbits, squirrels. if the weather permits (we had a little bit of luck) you can also lounge in your own private garden.well equipped, nicely decorated, friendly owner. Cupar has all the shops for your daily groceries. Lots to see in the area, we visited St Andrews and went to Edinburgh by train.so… to be recommended.
Delightful cottage next to beautiful countryside. Calm sanctuary yet within easy driving distance to St Andrews. Visited by deer, pheasants and rabbits. The home-made bread and welcome groceries was a lovely touch and much appreciated! Thank you Margo
We enjoyed our stay at Garden Cottage which is a quirky quintessentially country cottage. It is well situated to visit local attractions and Dundee, St Andrew’s, Edinburgh and the Fife coast. The cottage was quiet with lovely woodland and farm views yet a short walk took you into Cupar town centre for the shops and eateries. It was helpful to have access to a pay-to-use EV charger opposite the cottage. Owner Margo was helpful with answering our questions before and during our visit. It was a lovely surprise to have the goodies on arrival - Thank you.

This was the most beautiful little cottage I've yet to stay at. I only wish it had fit my schedule to have stayed longer.
We absolutely loved our time in this gorgeous cottage. From the deers dancing around the fields to the family touches around the home, we’d come back in a heartbeat - and for longer!

I absolutely loved this charming cottage. Spacious and the homemade bread was a lovely touch. Seeing the herds of sheep cross the road was an unexpected delight. Hope to return soon
A little gem of a cottage. It was perfectly situated for all the local attractions we wanted to see including St. Andrews and the Fife costal villages.
The cottage itself was cosy, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The owner made us feel very welcome especially with the delicious freshly baked bread, looking forward to our next stay.

Cosy Cottage
The cottage is very cosy and nicely furnished. A beautifule secluded setting but just minutes from Cupar centre and well placed for exploration of Fife and the surrounding area. We'll certainly be back.

Thank you so much for taking time to post a review. It was lovely to meet you and your family, and I'm delighted you enjoyed your stay in Garden Cottage. I look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Margo
A wonderful location for a quiet stay but coastal villages and St Andrews within easy access. Margo was an excellent host, leaving so many things including still warm home made bread. It was very comfortable with everthing you could need for self catering. We would certainly recommend this cottage and will return again ourselves.

Thank you for taking time to write this review. You and your husband were perfect guests, and I hope you will return to Garden Cottage soon.
A beautiful period property, decorated in a country cottage style. Very comfy mattresses and pillows. The kitchen has every utensil and piece of equipment necessary for a relaxing, self catering stay. The living room has a beautiful log fire for a cosy night in and the grounds are extensive, giving complete privacy and tranquility. Our host, Margo, was extremely helpful and quick to respond to our email. Lots of lovely little touches, like the fresh bread, butter, milk, eggs and flowers. A most memorable stay!

Thank you for taking time to write such a lovely review. It was our pleasure to have you staying, and you’re welcome back anytime. Best wishes, Margo
Gorgeous very well equipped cottage. Excellent location for visiting fife. Incredibly comfy beds and spotlessly clean. We enjoyed sitting outside in the late afternoon.
Location was excellent. Very quiet. Cottage was very clean and had everything required. Cottage was very warm as the heating was on a timer and didn’t need to use the fire. Would stay again.
We loved our stay at the Garden Cottage and felt so welcome and well taken care of by Margo and her team. We highly recommend and hope to return again soon.
What a lovely stay we had in Cupar. Too short indeed. Margo gave us great information on shops and restaurants in the area and several website links to search. The home was perfect for our short stay.

We had a lovely short stay in the cottage. Our daughter loved the play area and her bedroom. It was great to feel away from it all, yet only a few minutes from town.

Perfect, quiet cottage to explore Fife.
The cottage exceeded our expectations. It was perfect for our 3 weeks in Fife. The house is well equipped for a family stay and in a lovely location. Margo was a responsive host.
