This cottage is very conveniently located just set off the front of the harbour Our communications with the owners was very pleasant and they were most helpful..

Everything was lovely and toa high standard except the beds which were very soft mattresses and not comfortable at all..

The Hayloft is a great location in Pitenweem.. There's no view of the harbour (the apartment is like a 'rear tenement') but the harbour is right there outside the street door. The apartment is well appointed and a reasonable price. The downsides are: ~ As others have noted, the main living area is dingy and lights are needed during the day. ~ The Hayloft is one of two apartments which are separated by internal doors. This means that if the neighbours are noisy or have children you will hear them as if they are in the next room (or elsewhere in the apartment) - because they are. ~ The wifi is provided by an extension unit and is patchy and drops out altogether (particularly in the evening). My theory is that the router is in the other apartment and that when the neighbours are online, they get first service from the router, leaving little bandwidth through the extension. ~ The combi boiler (situated in the living area) fires up for no reason. My guess is that it serves both apartments, so will grunt and click etc whenever the neighbours turn on taps, shower etc. None of the downsides are significant in themselves but be aware of them when you book.

Would be happy to recycle the rubbish.. Details of what goes in what bin would be useful. Did not feel happy about using garden. Someone working in there most days using it for growing vegetables. Bath towels were a little small.

Pittenweem is a quiet little town with beautiful coastal walk, a good place to relax..

A great place to stay, but not suitable for people with mobility problems or vertigo or tendency to sleepwalking.. Some stairs are steep and narrow. The harbour is lovely and lots of activities nearby
Mr Smith

Location is just perfect for a quiet break in the East Neuk of Fife.. Even the very active harbour did not disturb us. Everything we needed had already been considered including bedding for the sofa bed and plenty of bath towels for our party of four. Please note the sofa-bed was suitable for 2 teenagers. I hope this property will be available again for our next visit :-)

A great little apartment but not good of you can't do stairs, several up to the apartment and the spiral staircase inside.. It was pretty dark inside and we had to have the lights on most of the time. The actual position was great, down the stairs through the little alley and you were right on the harbour which was fabulous. No views from the windows though. No mobile phone signal until we were right at the harbour wall. The wifi was really great though and the apartment had everything you would want. Used the washing machine but the drier didn't work so had to take the load to the launderette for drying. All in all a great little apartment itself, apart from the issues above. Great for a couple but not sure I would want four people there

This is the second year we have booked this apartment which was perfect for our week away..
Mr Smith

The apartment was very close to the harbour but no views from the property.. Accommodation good but internally was dark. Excellent value for money. A wonderful base to explore East Neuk - we drove up from North Yorkshire, parked the car and didn’t get in it until we left a week later, making the most of exploring the Fyfe coastal path by foot courtesy of the local buses - wonderful, would fully recommend this as a base for a thoroughly enjoyable holiday

The apartment looks like it has a harbour view but this is only when you have gone outside.. The steps into the apartment are quite a few especially if carrying heavy items to the apartment

Very neat and tidy establishment, with everything we needed for our stay. Not much of an outlook but since we were outside all day everyday, this didn't matter. A new combi boiler had just been installed so heating was very efficient and easy to control. Positioned right on the harbour there was plenty of parking and only a 20 minute walk to Anstruther for the perfect fish supper. Would not hesitate to come back if planning a return to the same area.

A lovely cosy flat with a well equipped kitchen .. The flat is close to the harbour but had no view of the harbour which was disappointing.A lovely village with coffee shops and a pub.Located on the Fife coastal footpath and many interesting places close by. Edinburgh about 1hr 30 mins depending on how you want to get there .

We were under the impression from the photographs that the flat would have a harbour view and were disappointed to find this was not so..

The cottage was in a great location.. An hour from Edinburgh, 45 minutes from Dundee. It was really clean and had really good facilities. We stayed with two adults and two grown up children. I would suggest it's okay for 4 with small children but certainly ideal for 2. really good cottage.

We loved the location of this property; tucked away out of sight and in a beautiful setting just off the harbour. The cottage was well equipped and the local leaflets provided were useful. We found some lovely places to eat in near by villages.
