This is a lovely little cottage in the heart of the Beautiful village of Crail. The cottage is equipped with everything you need & is also dog friendly. There is a very efficient heating system & a powerful shower in the bathroom. The shops are on the doorstep & there is a Bus stop two minutes away. I enjoyed my stay very much.

We have stayed here several times. It is in a perfect spot on the High St. The sockets have been upgraded to include USB ports. Everything you need is in the kitchen. Its clean, great heating, and a huge comfy bed . Enough towels provided for 2 people for 1 week. Lovely towelling robes also provided. We have always had great communication with the owner and we will continue to return to this wee haven to recharge our batteries. Dog bowls also provided for the pooch . Thanks for another wonderful break xx

A perfect cottage in a lovely courtyard. I walked the dogs every day down to the harbour. We had five days of glorious sunshine and made use of all the various shops on our street. Love to return.

A quiet relaxing stay in Crail

Lovely cottage, very clean in the centre of Crail, initially it was hard to locate, could have done with details of how to find the property as it is tucked away off of a courtyard.Very comfortable and relaxing and it was lovely sitting in the courtyard when the sun was shining, you had everything you needed in the property and it was nice warm and cozy, would definitely use it again.

Perfect vacation cottage.

We stayed here for our golfing vacation. St Andrews just 20 minutes away. It was the perfect location with everything you need at your door. Co-op, bakery and butcher just a few blocks away, the cottage was clean and cozy. Host responded quickly to questions. I would highly recommend this stay.
