The property was exactly as depicted in the website. The location was great, and we didnât venture far. Thereâs plenty to do close by and we enjoyed the outdoor pool as well as relaxing around the front with the sun shining and the peaceful atmosphere.
Aside from a few vagaries with the heating system, all went extremely well, and we were very pleased with the property.
The one amenity that I found lacking was there was no soap and shampoo in the showers.
This is a very nice property ideal for a large family or maybe 3 couples. Three fishermen cottages from the mid-1700s have been converted to make this spectacular house with incredible views over the Firth of Forth. It has been tastefully renovated and is well equipped.
We were there with 7 people, two children 4 & 7, one young adult, and two couples. It worked very well for us.
The only slightly negative thing I had to say was the loft room has a toilet but no shower and the kitchen area was difficult to heat. The rest of the house was toasty, the bathrooms were very nicely renovated, and the living room had views that everyone will appreciate.
Fife Cottages communicated well, even to the point of reaching out to let us know that the house was ready early if we wanted to access it before the regular time.
There are a few supermarket options within a 10 minute drive and several eating options within a 5 minute walk. I would recommend the âChip-Shopâ in the harbour area which also doubles as the local pub, restaurant, local gathering place. Great atmosphere and excellent service. There is also a very nice upmarket restaurant and a bakery a short walk up the hill.
The Fife Coastal Path passes right behind the house and makes for excellent walks with great views.
wonderful location meant that it didn't matter that there was very wild and wet weather as the view over the sea was so dramatic.
Ideally kitted out with everything you could possibly need.
My husband and I took our parents on a bucket list vacation to Scotland. Our stay at the House on the Rock was absolute perfection!! We all had an amazing time. Everyone was so at home and the owners have done such a great job not only supplying all the modern conveniences we were used to but the way in which this home is decorated is so inviting. I have told everyone I know that if they get a chance to travel to Scotland staying in this home is a must!! I cannot wait to bring our family back again.
Wir sind mit 7 Personen (4 Erwachsene + 3 Jugendliche) in diesem Haus super klar gekommen. Alles war sehr sauber, die BĂ€der total neu und sehr gut ausgestattet. Auch die KĂŒche hat alles her gegeben, was man fĂŒr den Urlaub benötigt, um diese Anzahl Personen zu verköstigen. Das ganze Haus zeugt von guter Planung und sehr viel Liebe zum Detail. Alle Bilder und die Wohnaccessoires passen super in dieses tolle Haus.
