Lovely house in a lovely village
Idyllic is the word - Pittenweem is a lovely little fishing village and a great base for wider travel, and this house is just perfect - really well presented, large enough that you aren't all tripping over each other and very quiet. Sam is a terrific host too.

Holiday in Fife
Cozy seaside cottage near harbor with excellent communication and recommendations from host. All of our needs and comforts were satisfied. We would most DEFINITELY stay again and recommend to family and friends! We enjoyed coastal walks, the wood stove/sitting room, BIG kitchen, back garden, and space for everyone. The Dory Bistro was excellent! And I especially liked the friendly staff at the Coco Tree and the yarn shop.

Unique Cottage
Spent a few days here mid December to celebrate family birthday. When we arrived cottage was cosy and warm and the lovely Christmas tree and decorations made it feel like home from home. The layout suited us perfectly with mum, dad and two kids on top floor with their own bathroom/shower. Myself, hubby and daughter on mid floor with our own shower/toilet. There was nothing in the spacious kitchen that we could not find. The garden looked amazing alas in December a bit too chilly to make use of. All in all a great cottage, to which I would not hesitate to return.

Wonderful property. So lovely it was difficult to leave and explore the magnificent coastline and beautiful village. We got great September weather and Binny Cottage was the perfect place to base ourselves and explore such a picturesque part o& the world. Nice to cosy in at night and play some games in the big comfy living-room too!

Beautiful cottage
Had a brilliant time at this beautiful cottage with my children and grandchildren. It was very spacious, immaculately clean and excellently equipped with everything you could think of. Really geared for families with games, DVD’s Xbox and books The owner was an excellent host and left a generous welcome pack for us and also made sure there was plenty of tea coffee milk etc. They also provided all cleaning materials and there were tons of towels and beach towels. The beds were super comfy too. The grandchildren enjoyed playing in the garden which was south facing so a great wee sun trap. Really nice quiet area just a 1 minute walk from the harbour. Would highly recommend this to anyone thinking of a holiday in Pittenweem. Hope to come again soon

Roomy and comfortable stay close by the picturesque harbour
This property was a great find for our group of 5 adults. It is a delightful cottage, beautifully furnished, clean and very comfortable (with newly remodeled bathrooms). It is well located for walks along the coastal path, and also easy access to browse the High Street shops. We also enjoyed the wood burner in the cold February weather. Sam (our host) was very responsive to our questions, also surprised us with some bubbly for our birthday celebrations. Highly recommended!
