Willow Cottage- charming cottage in East Neuk
Willow Cottage, Pittenweem is a delightful cottage tucked away on a quiet lane in this traditional fishing village. With two bedrooms the cottage accommodates four guests and has spacious yet cosy living spaces.
Entering into the property, the bright lounge has an open fire which alongside the cottage style wooden doors and picture rail display of family dishes creates a beautiful, homely place to relax. The lounge opens into the dining kitchen where you will find another fireplace to sit by and the back door gives access to the fully enclosed garden. On the first level is the large master bedroom with dual aspect windows giving vistas to the clock tower of the village church. The twin bedroom is to the rear and looks out over the garden. The modern shower room has a walk in shower with rainfall head and handheld shower. Parking is available on street. The village of Pittenweem is one of the East Neuk villages, a popular holiday destination for guests from near and far due to its picturesque coastal location, miles of coastal path, tidal pools, fantastic local larder of food and drink and vibrant music and arts community.

Wonderful holiday cottage in a beautiful location
The property was just perfect in an ideal location. It was as described and very well equipped. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dog, Lockie to run about in.Pittenweem is a lovely coastal village with lots of points of interest within. It’s ideally situated for day trips to other coastal villages in the surrounding area.All in all, a perfect break.

Relaxing and peaceful!
The home was a perfect size for my family. My husband and I brought our 2 year old and having an outdoor space for him to run off energy was great! They had every amenity we needed and even provided an app that helped us navigate the town and things to do around the town. After a long week of on the go this cottage combined with the quaint town of Pittenweem was the perfect ending to our vacation!
