About this property
Dolphin Cottage- traditional cottage on Fife Coast
Dolphin Cottage is an 18th century traditional property nestled beside the historic Dreel Halls and its grounds on The Esplanade, one of the most iconic locations in Anstruther. With the stepping stones leading across the Dreel Burn to the shore just beyond the property it offers central yet quiet accommodation.
The bedrooms, a double and a twin, are on the ground floor along with the shower room which features a bespoke stained glass window depicting local images. Stairs lead to the bright first floor where there is a cosy lounge with sea views, a spacious dining area and a well equipped kitchen. Each of the East facing windows frame views across the Dreel burn as it flows to the sea and towards the harbourfront. Relax at the window seat to read a book or simply watch the waves roll in. The Dreel Halls to the rear has an historic graveyard and quiet gardens where guests can enjoy views from the many benches along the waters edge. There is on street parking at the end of the lane and access to a sheltered beach just behind the harbour wall. Dolphin Cottage welcomes well behaved dogs, and the area is known for being particularly dog friendly with plenty coastal and countryside walks in close reach. Well suited to families or friends travelling together, the cottage is a comfortable and welcoming base for a stay in the beautiful East Neuk.

Whilst it isn't anything we expect to impact your stay, please do note that it is next to a former church and graveyard. The neighbours are very quiet!
