Catherine Cottage is a charming traditional fisherman’s cottage situated in the picturesque coastal village of Cellardyke, part of Anstruther in Fife, Scotland. This delightful self-catering accommodation is designed to host up to four guests, making it an ideal retreat for small families or individuals seeking a peaceful seaside escape. With direct access to the shoreline through its enclosed garden, the cottage offers a unique blend of tranquility and coastal charm, perfect for those who appreciate the beauty of the sea and its surroundings.
Set across three levels, guests enter the cottage from a quiet street and descend to a spacious dining kitchen featuring a large window that overlooks the garden. The cottage is equipped with an enclosed passage that provides convenient storage for bikes and fishing gear, enhancing the outdoor experience. The garden itself has been cultivated over the years with seasonal flowers, herbs, and even grapes, which guests are encouraged to enjoy. A gate at the end of the garden leads directly to the shoreline, allowing for easy access to the beach and its natural beauty.
The first floor houses the bedrooms and a shower room, both offering stunning views of the sea and the Isle of May. The master bedroom is bright and airy, furnished with a double bed, while the second bedroom is equipped with a single bed and a trundle bed, making it suitable for children. The shower room features a walk-in enclosure, providing modern amenities. On the upper level, a cozy lounge area with comfortable armchairs is positioned by the windows, allowing guests to soak in the spectacular views of sunsets, passing fishing boats, and occasionally, dolphins swimming by.
In addition to its comfortable accommodations, Catherine Cottage is ideally located for exploring the surrounding area, with various neighboring villages accessible via the coastal path or by car. Guests can enjoy a range of local dining options, including award-winning fish and chips, and partake in numerous outdoor activities such as walking, watersports, and golf at nearby courses like Anstruther and Crail. While the cottage is pet-friendly, accommodating up to two well-behaved dogs, potential visitors should note that the stairs may be narrow, which could pose challenges for those with mobility issues.
