Originally built as a home for the estate workers who maintained the mansion, West Cottage today provides a welcoming retreat for five guests in Cupar, Fife. Nestled within its own private enclosed garden on the estate grounds, you can park up adjacent to the property before exploring the interior. Venture into the kitchen/diner to find a homely spot to gather and begin cooking, with a farmhouse dining table as well as a country-style fitted kitchen, this room and the utility hold all you need for a self-catered stay. Wind down in the lovely sitting room, with armchairs and a sofa to relax on after a day of rambling, plus an open fire to keep you toasty on a winter's eve. Enjoy the benefit of an all-ground-floor layout, with three charming sleeping spots to choose from consisting of a double, a twin and a single room, all served by the spacious family bathroom where you can enjoy a relaxing soak.
