Pittenweem is a charming fishing village in the East Neuk of Fife. The harbour is the main focus of the village, particularly early each morning when the fishing boats return with their catch and the daily fish market gets underway. Many of the charming houses around the harbour are of traditional Fife design with red pantile or grey-slate roofs with crow-step gables and have been restored by the National Trust for Scotland.
There is seasonal crazy golf near the beautiful refurbished Pittenweem Tidal pool with views towards the Bass Rock and the Isle of May beyond.

Not forgetting, of course, the beautiful beaches of the ever-popular Elie.

A really welcoming, cosy, warm cottage for two. It’s in an ideal position to explore the beautiful Fife coast , we hardly used our car. The cottage is very well equipped but best of all the bed and bedding are divine!
