About this property

19 Shoregate - a cottage that sleeps 11 guests in 6 bedrooms

A traditional Crail fisherman's house perched just above the most photographed harbour in Scotland, 19 Shoregate is a coastal retreat bursting with character. This quirky, historical property offers stunning views over the harbour and out to the Firth of Forth.

The ground floor encompasses the main living spaces, including a kitchen/diner with a large dining table, TV lounge, and large conservatory or ‘sun room', retaining many of its original features including internal exposed brickwork. The back door leads to a private, enclosed rear garden where you can access the annex, which is equipped with a double bed and en-suite shower room.

There is a master bathroom with a shower over bath set across the first floor, including three further bedrooms; a super king or twin, a double and a twin.

The second-floor compromises of the remaining two bedrooms; a single and a double. There is an additional bathroom on this floor also.

The private, fully enclosed rear garden and patio area can be accessed via the conservatory and provides the perfect space to enjoy the sunshine and fresh, coastal air.

Crail harbour and the Fife Coastal Path is less than a minutes' walk away, as is the famous Lobster shack. Crail high street is just a minutes' walk away in the opposite direction, where you can find all the local shops, cafes, and restaurants. The historic town of St Andrews is a 15 minute, scenic drive along the coast.

Fully fitted kitchen and dining area
Large living room
Additional sun room attached onto living room

A great family venue
A quirky and comfortable property for a large group. Enough space for everyone and very comfortable sleeping arrangements. The patio area is ideal for an evening meal or drink.
