Located less than a mile away, down the farm track there’s a pub and a well-stocked local shop for any last minute essentials. The beautiful university city of St Andrews, home of golf, is less than 10 miles west. Magnificent castles, picture-postcard fishing villages, and a spectacular coastline are all waiting to be discovered.

There are three bedrooms, one with a double bed and two twin rooms with zip-and-link beds (can be made into king-size doubles upon request).

The lodge is cosy, clean, comfortable, plenty of hot water and well equipped with stunning views from every window. A great base to explore Fife. Stephen was very helpful.

A fantastic place, the view from the deck out onto St Andrews is amazing and one we will miss seeing. Its really close to Tentsmuir beach which is a great place to spend a day. The eco lodges are built solidly and keep the heat in! The facilities are great, beds are nice and comfy and the bathrooms/showers are big. The supplied cooking equipment meRead moreans you can cook whatever you want without having to bring your own stuff. If you want a nice quiet place to spend a week, this is the place to go. Hide
