Lovely stay at this cottage in S. Monans. Beautiful harbour and scenery. Walks right around St. Monans worth it..and saw quite a few hidden viewpoint gems.

Overall impression

The cottage was very clean and everything worked however that attic is not suitable for adults. There were not electric sockets there as well as the absence of a mirror - very important for ladies. I think lick up details could also be clarified .

Beautiful house in charming location.

We really enjoyed our 3 nights here. The only reason for not giving 5 stars is that behind the house is an industrial unit which was noisy from 8am. The house is stylish and well equipped. It is a good base for exploring the area. We walked to Elie in one direction and Pittenweem in the other. We loved our fine dining lunch at Craig Millar’s Restaurant- at the West End of the village. The well-stocked shop and the great cafe opposite were also appreciated.

Excellent location

Lovely clean property in the centre of St Monans.We were lucky to experience sunny, dry weather and a garden space would have been ideal.To dsscribe the property as having a patio/ outdoor space is a wee bit misleading as it is a bench seat looking out onto the road, in full view of passers by.

Scottish Coastal Golf Trip

A great place to stay - tidy, well-appointed and charming. While St. Monan's is a touch quiet the location worked perfectly for our trip. The Giddy Gannet across the street was a perfect start to our days.

St. Monan's

A lovely little cottage in a quiet St.Monan's. The cottage has everything you need, it is very clean and is in the perfect location for accessing all of the beautiful villages surrounding St.Monan's. It has great access into St.Andrew's as well. Being 7 months pregnant I wasn't able to enjoy the Coastal path in the way we wanted to, so ended up driving from village-to-village (which was still absolutely beautiful and the food on offer at each place is fantastic). However, when baby is here we are planning on returning so we can do it all again on foot. We would really recommend this stay though, and look forward to returning. Out little dog, Alfie, had a great holiday - the beaches are fantastic! Steven was a great communicator/host and the cottage was exactly as described :)

Quaint fishermans cottage.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property, in particular walks along the coastal path, that were not too challenging. The accomodation was clean tidy and compact. The beds were comfortable and bedlinen, towels etc clean and of a good quality.

Lieber Steven!

Wir waren so gerne in deinem Fischerhaus und haben uns extrem wohl und sicher gefühlt. Vielen Dank für die liebevolle Ausstattung, die schönen warmen Betten, das gemütliche Bad und auch dafür, dass unsere Wohnung schnell warm wurde, wenn es draußen regnerisch und rauh war! Sehr genossen haben wir auch den wirklich kurzen Weg zum Hafen und natürlich unser Café schräg rüber! Nicht zu vergessen deine Fürsorge bei Fragen! Lieben Dank für die schöne Zeit bei dir!!! Mit lieben Grüßen aus Dessau - Uta und Astrid

Great stay.

Had a great time in a small fishing village. Great for walking, we had a dog. Only downside was Vrbo giving incorrect arrival information, which caused me to leave at 3am when i could have left home at a more respectable time.
