This quaint and quirky cottage is full of character and charm and will provide you and your lovable furry companion with a homely and relaxing getaway. Situated in an ancient medieval market place in Crail, it is rich in history and traditional architecture.

Originally two cottages built on top of each other, the property has two front doors, one with outside stairs. Entering on the ground floor, you come into a large entrance hall that is perfect for towelling off sandy wet dogs!

Upstairs comprises a further twin bedroom, dining room, cosy kitchen and the family bathroom. Crail is an attractive harbour fishing village and welcomes walkers and dog lovers to fill their boots and stretch their paws along its beautiful shores. In the summer months, it is host to the Crail Food Festival and packed with food and drink stalls, a real treat for all noses and senses.

A great week at 6-8 Marketgate in the centre of Crail, near local shops, cafe, pubs, fish and chip shop and the historical harbour and famous Crail Pottery - all in easy walking distance. Short drive to St Andrews for dog walking on the Sands, and plenty to see and do locally. A comfortable house, well appointed, with pretty garden, very relaxing aRead morend quiet with views to the sea. Recommended. Hide

I was really happy with the cottage and the location was perfect as the park was close by for walking the dog. Great having a view of the sea from the dining room. Although the cottage is situated back from the main road it was very quiet. The parking area is excellent.

Very nice traditional Scottish cottage in a lovely village. Quirky lay out with first floor entrance and kitchen above bedroom. Well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Crail is a very attractive village with shops, bars and cafes and a small beach. Edinburgh and St Andrews close enough foe a day out.
