Good get away

Very nice place. Enjoyed the city and the location. Owner was nice. However, really hard getting out of driveway. Need a mirror so accident can be avoided. Was nearly hit once.

The Coach House was exactly as it was described - immaculately clean, beautifully furnished with a well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, and luxury bed linen, towels and toiletries. It also has a lovely little courtyard for alfresco dining or sitting out in and enjoying the sunshine. Host Kirsten couldn’t have been more helpful and was very prompt in answering any questions we had. The cottage is perfectly located for the many coastal and inland walks we did. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Coach House to family and friends and would definitely return again. All in all it was perfect! Thanks Kirsten.

Great location, excellent host, lovely, well equipped little house.

The village of Pittenweem is lovely. Coastal path walks, couple of good cafes, village shop, 2 pubs serving food. The house is 5mins from coastal path and walks in either direction are great. And the buses are good to get a lift back to right outside the house. The house is warm and cosy. 3 good bathrooms, all with showers and a galley type kitchen which is well equipped. The host was really helpful, answering all my queries about the locality and the house very quickly so if you want to visit the area I'd definitely recommend. My only tip:- Tall guests should mind their heads upstairs on the sloping ceiling.

About the host

Hosted by Kirsten McKenzie

After holidaying in the area for many years ourselves we eventually decided to move and raise our family here. We have lived and worked in the East Neuk for over ten years and love the area. We enjoy welcoming visitors to our home turf and helping them to discover all it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Pittenweem has been described as one of the most beautiful villages in Scotland and is one of several small fishing villages that thread the East Neuk Coast. Out cottage offers the benefit of off road parking alongside easy access to public transport for those without a car. Both the historic harbour and the coastal path are several minutes walk from the door. The modern facilities offer comfort and warmth in a traditional historic barn conversion.
