Kirkview Cottage pet friendly, sleeps 4 near St Andrews

Kirkview Cottage is located in the historic village of Upper Largo in the picturesque East Neuk of Fife, 10 miles from the historic town of St Andrews famed for its golf and university.

The cottage is a pet friendly (2 dogs are allowed free of charge) single storey bungalow which sleeps 4 in comfort. All rooms are on the same floor with no internal steps. There is a small enclosed mature garden to the rear which catches the sun on a nice day and is a great place to sit and relax. Kirkview has an open aspect overlooking Upper Largo's small village green and its historic church. Many walks radiate from Upper Largo including the challenging climb up Largo Law (the views are worth it) and access to the Fife coastal path is very close by.

The property was upgraded in 2019 and is finished in a modern contemporary style and features all the equipment you will need for a comfortable holiday.

Close by is the historic Largo House (now sadly a ruin) once occupied by Sir Andrew Wood, famed for seeing off English raiders in the Firth of Forth during the reign of James IV. Walk up the hill out of the village, past the school and cemetery and look back to the fields behind Largo House to see if you can trace the canal Sir Andrew built to allow him to sail to church on Sunday.

The village of Upper Largo has the popular and hospitable Upper Largo Hotel, which serves great value meals at lunch and dinner 7 days a week, the hotel also has a small bar (which is dog friendly) if you only want a drink or a bar supper. The hotel is a 2 minute walk from the cottage.

Further afield the nearest supermarket is 3 miles away in Leven and there are a variety of eating places within easy striking distance ranging from the Michelin starred restaurants to the award winning fish and chip shops as well as multiple quality farm shops and markets.

Simon and Becca look forward to welcoming you to Kirkview Cottage where we are sure you will have a wonderful stay.

10/10 Excellent

Superb cottage in a pretty, quiet location.

We really enjoyed our stay at Kirkview Cottage. It was beautifully presented, comfortable and super clean. Everything has been considered and there are plenty of cooking utensils and crockery. (Maybe a few more mugs? We ran out often with three of us, having to resort to washing up! Haha!) Our two dogs were welcomed and loved the enclosed, private garden. Quite a suntrap. The recycling facilities are next level, but clearly explained. It was pleasing to only leave a small bag of actual rubbish. Beds are comfortable and the main one is a generous size. All linen and towels are white and fresh. The shower is easy to use and efficient. A delicious basketful of bread, cake and jam was provided and milk in the fridge (a large fridge/freezer) plus fresh flowers in the lounge, where there are two sofas and a small pull-out dining table. Parking is opposite the cottage but the road is not at all busy. The host called to see if we were ok and gave us tips about dog walks and local recommended eateries. Do have fish and chips in Anstruther - best ever! A real home from home, thank you.

Cosy cottage with beautiful garden

This is a lovely cottage with very attentive owners who replaced the dishwasher immediately when it broke whilst we were there. The cottage has a cosy living room with fire, which we enjoyed. It has a lovely garden, well equipped kitchen and a lovely large master bedroom. The second bedroom is rather small but with two comfortable single beds. The cottages has been furnished and decorated thoughtfully, with personal touches like local photographs on the walls, and patchwork throws and cushions for the beds. A huge bonus was being able to bring two dogs who loved it. The seaside, beach and Lower Largo are an enjoyable 20 minutes walk and it is easy driving distance of a host of local attractions. We had a lovely week and would recommend this cottage to others.
