Great to Return
This was our third stay in this wonderful apartment which is ideal for exploring the East Neuk. Everything you need is in the flat and if there are any issues the owner is happy to help. We will be back (as long as it's not already fully booked)!

Little slice of perfection!
Cormorant is a little treasure , over and above what we expected and the description of it matched perfectly. Exceptional cleanliness and facilities, right down to the fine details. Everything is provided , a good range of utensils and crockery , kitchen equipment and extremely comfortable bed. Shower room excellent and the terrace has the stunning views. Wish we could have made more use of it !

Perfect Apartment, wonderful views
The apartment is very comfortable with all you need. Well presented and spotlessly clean throughout. Within a minutes walk from Pittenweem harbour, with parking on the street outside. The terrace looking straight out to sea and the Isle of May is wonderful and we enjoyed drinks in the sunshine as we were fortunate with the weather for the end of April. We would thoroughly recommend the apartment - a cut above as my mother in law used to say.

Stunning terrace on the sea
We loved our stay here. Despite the cold weather we ate breakfast outside on the terrace all 3 mornings. Loved the sea view and the sea birds underneath the terrace. Very cosy flat, very well equipped. Super close to harbour and coastal path. Great meal in the Dory and great bakery in main street.

Stepping off life’s roundabout
For a city dweller Pittenweem and the surrounding area is an absolute dream.Its where people shrug off the drudgery of their “normalities of life” and can, just for a while, taste a tiny bit of paradise. A truly beautiful flat with everything you think you may need for your stay is right there! Even the locals, and indeed those holiday makers we met along the way seem to take on a different persona. We will definitely want to return to the tiny bit of heaven in the future - hopefully for a wee bit longer.

A Great Stay in Cormora, Pittenweem
The apartment was really comfortable, clean and ideal for the two of us. The patio is a nice suntrap with great sea view. It was nice to sit out and just listen tot he sound of the sea and no traffic. Ideally situated within easy walking distance of local shops / restaurant and the Fife Coastal Trail. St Andrews is only a short run out. Would recommend a stay here and would definitely like to come back to explore more of the area.

Apartment was well appointed and comfortable . Patio with views over the Firth was great especially with the good weather and being able to sit out. Pittenweem is a lovely wee fishing village and the two restaurants down at the harbour were excellent. Also very good bus links to surrounding areas. Overall had a great stay and wouldn't hesitate in recommending Cormora and will definitely be back.

FABULOUS FLAT
63 Abbey Wall, Pittenweem, was a lovely place to call home for the week we were there. It was an easy walk into town, and it was located at the beginning of the coastal path to Anstruther. A short walk thru the picturesque town and you are on the coastal path to St. Monans. The back patio had a stunning view of the North Sea which provided a constant breeze. Many amenities were provided to make us feel at home from the time we walked in the door. The kitchen had spices and seasoning for cooking, the bathroom was updated and modern. The bed was very cozy and it was just one mattress (not two smaller mattresses pushed together) allowing for a very restful night's sleep. There was a dishwaser and clothes washer to make our time in Pittenweem more productive. We hung our clothes on the patio's clothes line and enjoyed having air dried clothes hung in the sun. In the evening we curled up on the sofa and enjoyed scores of cable channels as well as Netflix and BBC iplayer.

We had booked for short 3 night stay. It is a compact apartment with sea view from kitchen window. Kitchen is sufficiently equipped. Modern bathroom. However we found the bed to be very uncomfortable, too firm for us. Heating didn't come on until 8.30 am.

I apologise for the heating, it would have normally come on at 7.30am. but it never got changed on Sunday after the start of British summer time. Unfortunately with beds some like firm some like soft we tried to aim for something in-between. Sorry once again for the error with the heating settings.
