The owners are very friendly ,helpful and did everything to make our stay as pleasant as possible . The high street has co op, pub, cafe , butchers for all your needs and several restaurants all within a short stroll however the walk is either a very steep hill or walk with lots of steps but worth it.Is one of the nicest holiday lets we have stayed and will plan a return visit.

Everything about it was perfect, from the lovely personal welcome from the owners to the cottage and all its facilities - all exactly as shown in the listing and photos. The cottage is literally on the sea front and, when the tide is in, you can hear the waves breaking: what a beautiful sound to fall asleep and wake up to. Everything you could possibly need is provided and everything feels and looks new. I can't wait for the opportunity to come back again. I'm not going to lie, there isn't a great deal going on in Kinghorn itself, just a small high street with a co-op, butcher and a couple of cafes (which weren't open when I was there), but there is a station with regular trains to Edinburgh or Perth/Dundee and it is very easy to walk to the surrounding towns along the stunning coastal path. Just one thing I should reiterate to any people with mobility issues thinking of renting is that, by nature of the cottage being on the sea front, it is down a very steep hill - so bear that in mind. You can drive a car down to the harbour front, but there isn't much parking space, so I wouldn't rely on that!
