Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bill B., Hastings 26 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Comfortable cottage in lovely Fife. Spent a splendid week in the Old Schoolhouse in September 2023, a quiet, comfortable, well equipped cottage in the centre of Fife giving easy access to all that wonderful county has to offer. Lesley and Bill were excellent hosts and we always knew we didn't have far to go for help or advice. We visited the coast, Dundee, St Andrews and even a managed a windy game of mini-golf! The walking around and near Burnturk is splendid for a couple of oldies and we were lucky with the weather when we pulled the boots on. We ate well - The Dory Bistro at Pitenweem and the Inn at Pitlessie. Woulkd recommend the Pillars of Hercules farmshop and cafe. We hope to return. ##### Bill B. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susanne T. 10 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Schottland zum Wohlfühlen In diesem schönen Haus mit gemütlichen Sitzecken innen und außen, gut ausgestatteter Küche, Kamin, TV und WLAN haben wir uns vom ersten Tag an wohlgefühlt. Die vielseitige Umgebung lädt ein zum Wandern und Radfahren. Tolle Naturerlebnisse auf der Isle of May oder am Loch Leven sind garantiert. Der Blick vom West Lomond erinnert schon an die Highlands inmitten von blühender Heide. Auch die Kultur kommt nicht zu kurz. Mit Besuchen in Edinburgh, Dunfermline und auf Schloss Falkland kamen wir der schottischen Geschichte ganz nah. Ein perfektes Quartier, um die Region Fife ganz individuell zu erleben. Liebe Lesley, vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit! ##### Susanne T.
