“Lovely house close to beach and all facilities”

Reviewed 15 Aug 2021

We had a lovely time in Elie. The house had everything we needed and the owner Julie was so helpful! The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable.

Response from the owner We would refer any prospective guests to the previous responses. The response immediately before this one describes the property as “deceptively large” I can only assume this reviewer understood Greenview is a traditional fisherman’s cottage. As for needing a ‘deep clean’ this is simply not true. The house is professionally cleaned after every guest. The bathroom is quite small but I would again refer the reviewer to the description in the advert. Prospective guests should note the bathroom will be fully refurbished at the end of this season (Nov/Dec 2019) 2020’s guests will be first to enjoy the new bathroom. It still won’t be huge though! The weather was poor during this guest’s stay, so who knows if that helped produce an unrepresentative response. I will post more pictures soon to reassure any prospective guests this is a brilliantly located, good value, comfortable (if as it says slightly ‘rustic’) village house.

“A delightful old cottage”

Reviewed 23 Sep 2018

This is a real gem of a cottage for up to 5 people. The location in the heart of the East Neuk of Fife is perfect for exploring the delights of the Kingdom of Fife. The cottage itself is full of charm with 3 bedrooms and a full kitchen. Nice open plan lounge and dining room and a powerful shower in the bathroom. We were 3 golfers and this cottage was ideal - only 5 minutes from Elie GC, 15 minutes from Crail GC and 20 minutes to St Andrews. Julie the owner is an excellent host and took care of all our arrangements with a very friendly and warm hospitality. This is a place that I would recommend 100%
