Excellent modern house in the heart of Culross, a preserved ancient village in Fife. The house is just across the road and about 50 yards from the Red Lion Inn, a lovely community run pub, with excellent food and drinks. Although close it is not noisy, but need to book as very popular. Culross Palace is well worth a visit and it's a good location for visiting the rest of Fife as well as Edinburgh.Lovely welcome & welcome pack on arrival. Appliance operation was intuitive but Wi-Fi password was in a hall cupboard behind the router. A small info folder would be a useful addition.

The cottage was lovely and clean, in a beautiful coastal location. Martin was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed when we arrived. The cottage was right in the centre of Culross, just a few minutes walking from the local park, Culross Palace, The Red Lion pub and Outlander information point. We found the cottage was a great base for day trips across Fife and Central Scotland 😊

Lovely cottage in a lovely village, a few places to eat, within. 10-20 minute journey of a lot of sights and local food.One item I would recommend is the traditional folder with manuals for some of the equipment, guidance on what is expected with the towels / bedding / rubbish.Also a list of all local amenities, places to eat, convenience stores, etc etc
