A wonderful stay with all we needed; a very comfortable bed, great shower, high quality bedding and towels. Loved the reading material that gave great insight to the area, very informative. Plenty of outside areas to sit and enjoy the sun or cozy up inside to stay out of the rain. Great biscuits ! Warm and welcoming we felt right at home.

The garden shed was an excellent choice for my wife and I. It was clean and well appointed. When booking I was a little apprehensive about the bed being a pullout couch being a large man. The bed/couch was more comfortable than some hotels we have stayed at. Carol is an excellent host. Great location as well. Definitely will return.Thanks again Carol.

What a gem of a little garden house - bright & airy with a great view of the beautiful garden. It was clean, warm & cosy with a super comfy bed & had all the facilities required for our weekend break. It was set in a lovely quiet location within easy walking distance to the centre of Anstruther & an excellent base to explore the very picturesque surrounding areas. Our lovely hosts Carol & John were very friendly & extremely welcoming - thank you!!!! We would not hesitate to recommend!!!

Our stay

We found a little gem Carol was a lovely host and made us feel very welcome. It had everything we needed for our stay, the shower was excellent and the bed super comfy. We were lucky to have the weather to take advantage of the patio area when we weren't out exploring the area and swimming in the local sea pool ( within walking distance). We wouldn't hesitate to go back and stay again. Thank you Carol

Two night stay

Comfortable and roomy accommodation which was perfect for visiting family in Anstruther. A very pleasant and easy walk from the centre of Anstruther. A nice quiet location near a bus stop. Accommodation was perfect for me with all of the facilities I needed including a very comfortable bed and a good shower. Would definitely use again.

Cosy Cottage

We stayed here for 3 nights with our dog and had a good time in the garden house. The pull down bed settee was surprisingly very comfortable. The shower cubicle was quite small but very good. I was surprised to find the tv had sky tv including sky sports. The dog had a good time running around the large enclosed garden area. Friendly host with a kept and clean house.

Lovely value property and friendly owner service

Big room summerhouse, with a sumptuous and very comfortable sofa bed. Duvet and pillows. Great oven and grill, electric kettle and toaster. Fridge and small freezer available. Compact toilet and wash hand basin with a great pressure shower. Full of windows and very bright and airy. Very close to Anstruther, Crail and St. Andrews and a great base for exploring the surrounding areas. Would highly recommend, tiny number of steps for access, fantastic garden and outdoor space, and fantastic value location.

A real gem!

This is a little treasure of a find. We were greeted by Carol on arrival, who couldn't do enough for us. Extremely welcoming. The accommodation more than met our expectations as the property was so comfortable and very clean. There were so many little extra touches included too! The garden is spectacular and our dog had a great time exploring. Thank you so much Carol for your friendly welcome and look forward to visiting again, if you'll have us 😊.

Perfect for my needs

The house was small, but I knew it would be. The only place that felt cramped was the shower, and I managed it. The pull-out bed was quite comfortable. I didn't need Carol for anything, but if I had I'm confident she would have been immediately responsive.

Lovely little place

Nice compact place, with sofa bed, but has everything you need. Pots, pans, microwave,two ring elecric stove etc... Easy check in, on street parking but very quiet. Bed very comfy. Only negatives, and we are being picky here...(1) had to turn the fridge off at night as too noisey (2) water in kitchen sink and handbasin in bathroom very hot, but shower was hardly warm. Also handbasin in bathroom very small (3) bathroom door...was a sliding door right next to the sofabed, and theres a gap at either side. So a bit awkward if you need to sit on the loo, as the bathroom is tiny. You can hear everything. However, would we return ... absolutely !!!
