Our property is situated on the rocky shore of the Cellardyke coastline. It affords stunning uninterrupted views of the Firth of Forth and way beyond. You can watch the sunrise and set across by the May Island. You can also enjoys the wonderful views of the owners' private garden
We love the East Neuk and all of the quaintness it holds. We enjoy the wonderful outdoors here-walking, running, rowing, golfing, cycling, sailing, fishing and, most importantly, keeping and eye on the tide....rain, hail or shine! We are also involved in the local community ensuring guests have access to great music, food and drink and fantastic art! We are happy to help you make your visit special!
Our neighbourhood is that of a former fishing village, with beautiful houses and nooks and crannies leading to the shore front. We are a few steps from Cellardyke Harbour and right on the Fife Coastal Path.
