The space
Our holiday cottage is a typical traditional B listed East Neuk building it’s small and cosy and that’s what we love about it. The cottage is a cosy space with an open plan lounge with sofa and two arm chairs, dining table to seat four guest and a newly fitted kitchen. There is also a downstairs cloakroom and w/c.

The age of the building has meant there is no gas, there are heaters dotted round the house and in each room. In the summer (when the sun is shining the house tends to me warm)….it’s those 18th century thick walls.

If your planning a trip to one of our beautiful beaches? The cupboard in the hall and the outside side storage has beach chairs, sun umbrella and wind breakers please feel free to use (please take care and any broken or lost items must be replaced).

A newly fitted kitchen kitchen with new dishwasher, fridge, oven, hob and microwave.

Although not part of the cottage the mid stairway looks onto a pretty garden courtyard, the staircase is narrow and winding which is a quaint feature of an traditional East Neuk house. There is a master double bedroom with king size bed with an en-suite bathroom.

Bright twin bedroom with 2 comfortable single beds, across the hall there is a newly fitted shower room with sink and enclosed electric shower (there is no toilet). The rooms are not large but is perfect for our family of four adults, for a younger family and just perfect for couples.

Guest access
On opening the front door, the whole house is yours to enjoy.

Other things to note
There is no washing machine in this property.
The shower room across from the twin room does not have a toilet.
