Exceptional food, classy service, super comfy mattress and bedding, hidden getaway feel. My husband said that it might be the best cooked breakfast he has ever had (which is high praise indeed given we have been lucky enough to travel extensively to some very exclusive resorts and hotels around the world).

I was late to check in and a member of staff called me to make sure I am coming. She left me a key to the room and all the instructions in a safe space, absolutely brilliant. The room was a good size, very comfortable beds as well.

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely amazing. The owner and his team are incredibly friendly, helpful, and attentive. He went above and beyond to make our stay as perfect as possible. The owner is such a genuinely nice and charismatic person—it felt more like visiting a good friend than staying at a hotel. The rooms were beautifully furnished, and he did an outstanding job of preserving the charm of the 400-year-old building while seamlessly incorporating modern standards and comforts. We had a parking spot right in front of the hotel on the street. Since we were driving a rather large car (BMW X6), parking was a bit tight at first. However, the owner immediately moved his own car to give us more space—such a thoughtful gesture! All in all, if I could give more than 10 out of 10, I would happily rate our stay at least 15 out of 10!

    Great location, virtually on the beach (fantastic safe beach for kids). Bright and comfortable home, well furnished and loads of toys/books for the children. Great outdoor space too. Very handy to the Elie Deli, which has everything you need from fresh croissants, sandwiches and wine. Great Ice-cram shop just across the road and a fantastic pizza van - delicious pizzas. Would also recommend the Ship Inn. Easy parking on street in front of property and easy access to the Fife peninsula. Highly recommended, would stay again.

    Location, a little gem you wouldnt know was there. Although we were there in January I can imagine that it would be a little suntrap in the summer. This would be ideal for families with young children as 2nd bedroom off main bedroom
