This delightful cottage was perfect for us. We loved the quiet location and felt very relaxed as soon as we arrived. All the rooms were spotless and very tastefully decorated with some lovely pieces of local art. Also very close to nice cafes, restaurants and shops.

Lovely cottage, modern fittings and original features blended well. Well equipped and a convenient location. Shame the galleries in the village weren’t open as it was out of season and limited eating out options. Local people friendly and helpful. Would go again

Pleasant little spot
First time in Pittenweem. The flat was small but we didn’t need anything bigger. Space had been used carefully and was well furnished. When the wood burning stove got going it made for a cosy experience. Pleasant seafront area nearby and Anstruther is only half a mile or so away. St. Andrews is about 20 minutes by car. Well worth a short visit (three nights for us).

Lovely Pittenweem
We love Pittenweem. The Kirkgate Cottage is right around the corner from High Street, just a few steps to two cafes, two pubs, an upscale restaurant, pharmacy/grocery and several art galleries. It's a perfect location for walking the Fife Coastal Path or catching a bus.

Lovely cottage
The cottage was spotless, bed was very comfortable, lovely shower, very quiet area. A small dining table would have been welcome ( the folded one in the kitchen is wobbly) and there’s not much room in the kitchen for cooking but it’s a nice place for a short break.

Lovely cosy little cottage
Absolutely exquisite. Beautifully cosy. High end furnishings and soft linens. Like a mini boutique hotel. Everything you need has been thought of. The village is gorgeous, both cafes excellent for gluten free food we needed. A visit to Anstruther is a must and the ‘wee chippy’. Thanks for a lovely restful stay

Wonderful wee cottage
The cottage was lovely, full of charm, cozy, spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated. Very well located in terms of the local amenities and for exploring the East Neuk as a whole. I'd definitely recommend the log package for the wood burning stove in the colder months, as the fire adds to the cozy atmosphere. Had a wonderful dinner at the Dory Bistro, which is just a few minutes walk down the hill. The dogs loved the whole experience too! Would definitely recommend.

Cosy, beautifully renovated cottage for two
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kirkgate cottage. Beautifully renovated & well equipped - perfect for a couple. The log burner was easy to use and swiftly warmed up the whole of the upper floor. Situated in the heart of the village it is only around the corner from two small cafes - perfect for breakfast out. There is also an artisan Baker. The harbour is just a short walk down the hill and we enjoyed watching the fishing boats. There is also an excellent restaurant which makes the most of fresh fish and locally grown vegetables. Not to forget the paintings by various artists displayed on the walls. A great base to explore the nearby fishing ports
