About this property

Walker's Neuk is a beautifully presented cottage apartment located in the heart of the charming fishing village of Anstruther. A ground floor apartment with a sunny, west aspect garden on two levels, shared with the upper apartment. The second level offers sea views of the Bass Rock and the Firth of Forth towards North Berwick. The tranquil garden features evidence of the workshops of the Balmerino Monks which were housed on the site in the 13th Century. Walker’s Neuk was built in the 18th century and used to house the local Blacksmith.
An ideal location for visitors to the East Neuk of Fife, the cottage is set within the narrow streets of Anstruther, great for exploring the village and the working harbour which is close by. It is located opposite the Michelin starred restaurant, The Cellar and is a few steps from the shore where you will find award-winning fish and chip shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and a range of local shops.
You can enjoy walks along the Fife Coastal Path which runs through the village and afterwards, relax in the garden or in the comfortable lounge next to the wood –burning stove. Walker’s Neuk is the ideal base for visits to museums, historic castles, beautiful gardens and for exploring the picturesque East Neuk villages and coastal landscape. Boat trips to the world renowned Isle of May Bird Sanctuary and Observatory also run from Anstruther.
The area is famous for golf courses with a great selection of high standard links courses in the surrounding area. Anstruther is a 15 – 20 minute drive to St Andrews and its world-class Championship courses, Edinburgh, Perth, Stirling and Gleneagles are all within an hour’s drive.
The accommodation comprises a stepped entrance hall through to a spacious living/dining room with log-burning stove, a well equipped kitchen with carved wooden breakfast bar. The spacious double-bedroom has a 6ft zip/link bed (twin beds if required) with an additional guest bed. Bath and over-bath shower with toilet. Wi-Fi and TV app entertainment are included.

Cosy cottage

Beautiful cosy property for 2 we visited in the winter so did not use the garden. Bed very comfy. Very good bathroom with an outstanding shower. Parking to unload so a bit problematic but once unpack we parked further up the hill and was lucky to get a space the evening before leaving. Would recommend especially for 2 people

Heavy rain for most of our 5 days but flat warm and cumfy and visits to local restaurants v. enjoyable - esp. The Dory in Pittenweem and The Dreel in Anster. One small issue - slipped in the bath, bath mat needed.

Let’s do it again!

Our third time to stay here, because it’s super in location, coziness, and comfort. You cannot beat the walled back garden for a beautiful view. It’s perfect for a couple - within walking distance of the Anstruther harbor, butcher, baker, and Fife Walking Trail. Wonderful views everywhere, and warm and cozy to return to after a cold damp walk. Anstruther Fish Bar (and others), The Dreel Tavern, and the Cellar, 3 diverse eateries, are our favorites, but the Coop supplies a surprisingly reasonable variety of good food for nights in within easy walking distance.

Second Visit To Walkers Neuk

The cottage is as lovely as we remembered from first time round. Walkers Neuk is immaculately clean, well-equipped and ideally located to take advantage of the local eateries and drinkeries :) Comfortable, homely and within very easy walking distance to the main drag. We hope to be able to book again for next year as we've thoroughly enjoyed ourselves the past two years.

Lovely apartment in a central location

The property was lovely and clean with everything we needed for a weeks stay. The location was great, close to shops, restaurants, attractions etc. We appreciated the lovely goodies left f Parking was a bit of a problem at times. Duvet was far too heavy for the time of year and weather. (Fortunately we brought our own bedding).

Return customers

This is our second time at Walker’s Neuk. The location is excellent for exploring Fife, walking the Fife Coastal Trail, local restaurants including Michelin-starred The Cellar across the street (!), The Dreel Tavern, and Anstruther Fish Bar. We love Costa Coffee, the local bakery, and the Coop is a short walk. Walkers Neuk boasts one of the most beautiful gardens you’ll see, a well stocked kitchen, roomy bedroom and snug, and a newly remodeled bath. Owners were very responsive when we locked ourselves out. Nothing negative about this sweet place.

Lovely Apartment

The apartment is spacious, comfortable and well-equipped. Being on the ground floor, the property is suitable for those with minor mobility issues. We stayed for a week - Anstruther and the surrounding area provided a wealth of great eateries. The main hub, Shore Street, is less than two minutes walk. From there, regular buses run along the coast to St Andrews (going north) and Leven (going south). For those concerned about previous reviews regarding the bathroom being in need of some TLC, we're happy to report that promised renovation has taken place. The bathroom is now modern with a SUPERB power-shower! Given the opportunity, we will happily revisit both Walker's Neuk and the surrounding area.

Had a lovely time in this cottage, great location for main street of Anstruther

We had a lovely stay, the cottage is very cosy and comfy. Fully kitted out kitchen. Living room is spacious and couches very comfy. It is a fantastic location for anstruther, easy to gey to the beach. Even though there is no parking space attached to the property we always found a space in front. Easy to walk to neighbouring villages or just go to the beach. Sam was a great host, really helpful. Would recommend.

Beautiful property and so well placed for everything. The house was very tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. The welcome gift of Prosecco and shortbread was a very nice touch. Will definitely be back.
