About this property
Golden Sands Cottage | Elie
Set on Elie’s historic High Street facing the Toll Green, this Category C-listed lower conversion blends traditional character with fresh, modern comfort. Recently remodelled and renovated, the three-bedroom home offers smart, easy-going living space that’s almost entirely on one level — a great option for guests with limited mobility or those who simply prefer fewer stairs. To the rear, a private, mature garden gives you a peaceful spot for morning coffee, alfresco dinners or lazy afternoons in the East Neuk air.
Step outside and you’re moments from Elie’s much-loved local shops, including the deli, newsagent, bakery and pharmacy, with the long sandy beach, Elie Water Sports and the famous Ship Inn just a short walk away. Unrestricted on-street parking keeps arrivals simple, while Wi-Fi and pet-friendly stays mean everyone can feel at home, four-legged family members included.
