The cottage is quite literally a stones throw from the beach and has open views across the Firth of Forth to the Lothians and Bass Rock. Fall asleep listening to the waves lapping the shore a few yards from the front door. Lovingly restored and finished in a modern contemporary style this cosy and comfortable holiday cottage will sleep 4 in comfort and features everything you will need for a relaxing holiday. We allow one behaved pet (a small charge is levied for pets). The village of Lower Largo is famed for being the birth place of Alexander Selkirk (the real Robinson Crusoe) and Cardy Cottage is situated a few yards from the Crusoe statue which marks the spot where Selkirk was born and spent his early years before embarking on his adventures. The Fife Coastal path runs past Cardy Cottage, bring your walking boots and do as little or as much of the path as you want. The excellent local bus service means one way walks are a distinct possibility. There is a small shop in the village selling basic essentials as well as the popular and hospitable Railway Inn and Crusoe Hotel and Restaurant, which serves great value meals at lunch and dinner 7 days a week. The shop, pub and hotel are within a 5 minute walk of the cottage. Further afield the nearest supermarket is 3 miles away in Leven and there are a wide variety of eating places within easy striking distance, ranging from the Michelin starred restaurants to award winning fish and chip shops as well as multiple quality farm shops and markets. Simon and Becca look forward to welcoming you to Cardy Cottage where we are sure you will have a wonderful stay. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Direct access to the beach ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower ### Outdoor areas - Walkway to water ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Things to do - Golfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 1,098 square feet ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32940000/32932400/32932372/782a00d6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 bedroom accommodation in Lower Largo, near Leven Lower Largo, near Leven - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 9.8 Exceptional 16 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-16&endDate=2025-10-17&selected=32932372&PinnedHotelID=32932372&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/85000000/84170000/84167600/84167583/f1ef0111.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beachhaven116, Lovely beachside house, Lower Largo Leven - Sea view - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-16&endDate=2025-10-17&selected=84167583&PinnedHotelID=84167583&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33590000/33582600/33582528/9c8e7c66.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### An Idyllic cottage in St.Monans with sea views.
