Romantic Boutique Bolthole In Pittenweem Near St Andrews. Small dogs welcome.

Kirkgate Cottage - license F 100077F is a pretty and quirky traditional fisherman's cottage that's been refurbished to create a beautiful, modern home.

Kirkgate is modern and has a real contemporary feel about it blending beautifully with the traditional features of the cottage.

Curl up in one of the snugglers in front of the lovely wood burning stove with a good book, to watch the flat screen 32 ins Samsung smart TV with Sky box or just to relax with a good book and listen to the iPod through the BOSE docking system.
We also offer free WiFi.

The bedroom is accessed down stairs, the large bedroom has a solid ash double bed, crisp cotton bedding, iPod dock, modern lighting and a wall mounted small TV.
The roll top bath in the bedroom is perfect for a relaxing soak after a long walk on the Fife Coastal Path of after a day exploring the lovely East Neuk villages.

Beautiful wee property

Loved the location and property. It was wee and cosy, quirky and arty and very dog friendly. We were blessed with good weather during our 3 days stay and indulged in a lot of coastal walking with our dogs.

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

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.

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).

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

Lovely cottage
