2 Sharps Close was a great location

2 Sharps Close is in a great location and is a comfortable lodging. The owner was very responsive to inquiries. An information sheet was provided that enhanced the checkin and check out process as well offering valuable information about local restaurants and other resources.

Lovely cottage

We thought this was an excellent rental property. It was clean, spacious and in an excellent location. Efficient check in too with a pre arrival email from the owner. The kids loved the access to the seashore from the gate just outside the front door. It also had a great TV which was nice to sit down to and watch a film after a long day out and about. (Few holiday cottages have this in my view! We would definitely return.

Amazing view!

Super accommodation with an amazing view! We could have looked at the waves forever! Parking is on a narrow street. We were not aware of this until contact prior to the stay. The information about what to do within the house was more than thorough.

Stunning views from excellent property!

We stayed here for 4 nights over a bank holiday weekend. Our family, including 2 grandchildren, joined us for the last 2 nights. As a couple, we know Cellardyke and Anstruther well, having stayed several times in the area. This property was great for the 6 of us - beautifully renovated, spacious, clean and very comfortable. The views are absolutely stunning, even when misty. It was a stormy weekend for May and the huge waves were rolling in up to the wall below the deck - mesmerising to watch! We have stayed in a smaller property with a glass wall and deck further along the road so know how beautiful the views are when the sun shines too. The children loved rock pooling on the beach in front of the house and the 5 minute walk to the play park and natural sea pools for kayaking meant we didn’t have to go far for entertainment. We always enjoy walking into Anstruther (10 minutes) with all its amenities - cafes, restaurants and, of course,the famous fish and chips! We also recommend The Haven on Cellardyke Harbour for a fresh tasty meal. We will be back and would definitely choose this property again.

Cellardyke Break

A lovely property with a stunning balcony and sea views. Excellently decorated and equpped. Not too far to walk into Anstruther for all amenities. Only downside was my car got scraped and no message left. I would park away from the property so this does not happen.

Beautiful Seaside Retreat!

We stayed here during the Open and it was a beautiful retreat after a long day with crowds. We had one question during the stay and the owners answered it promptly via email. Would stay here again and are considering it seriously! Thank you to Sharps Close 2!

Sharpsclose 2 - Cellardyke/Anstruther

From booking through to arrival at the property, the owners Andy and Wendy kept us fully informed of all the details we needed regarding our 5 day stay at this wonderful holiday home. The property is very deceptive from the outside and it has been meticulously updated and is spotlessly clean. The rooms are well proportioned and the views from the balcony are outstanding. Everything you would want in a family accommodation was provided, even a pair of binoculars to span the coastline are provided. The owners have done everything they can to make this an enjoyable holiday destination. We will certainly be back and will have no hesitation in recommending this property to our family and friends. Thanks again Andy and Wendy.

East Neuk experience

The balcony upstairs is a huge asset to this property offering superb views to the Isle of May and the Firth of Forth. The upstairs room is spacious and light with many beautiful pictures adorning the walls. It is a very relaxing place to be. There is a pleasant bedroom with an en-suite bathroom off the main room. Downstairs the kitchen is attractive and well equipped. There are also 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. It feels rather busy when everyone is there moving about. This is an excellent location to explore the Fife coastal villages. Everything you could need is in close proximity, superb range of eating experiences. The cottage is literally on the rocky sea shore with easy access to a number of water activities. Many excellent sandy beaches nearby.

Gorgeous setting

This property is in an idyllic setting with stunning views from the upstairs balcony. The sea is just below. It is only a short walk into Anstruther. We had a family break & loved it. One down point was the cleanliness of the property which I would say had not been disinfected as it was dusty & dirty in places. This has been fed back to the owners so hopefully will be rectified
