Perfect place to relax

Lovely ground floor apartment in an excellent location close to the beach and steps from the nearest pub. Nicely proportioned living room with log fire and bay window overlooking the sea. Good sized kitchen with everything you’d need for self catering and a table to seat 4 people. Bedrooms and bathrooms were perfectly fine. Kate communicated really well and made both the booking and checkin processes easy. We plan to return again. Highly recommended

Dalmore by the beach...

This was our 4th holiday in Elie but our first staying at Dalmore and at that end of Elie. We had a fantastic week weather wise meaning that we werent really inside the house much but had we been there or if the weather had been bad the house has everything you would need to entertain yourself indoors. We spent a lot of time on the terrace, the sun reaches it before 10 and is there till evening. There is a BBQ there plus the Ship Inn is just a few doors down as is access to the beach and the coastal path. It was all just prefect for us and we will be returning.

Fantastic holiday

I was so happy when we arrived at Dalmore - what a beautiful house, in a beautiful location, and just seconds away from the beach. We had a fantastic week in Elie, making good use of Elie sports club which is within walking distance, and the Ship Inn, being only a stone's throw away. We also enjoyed using the water sports centre, again just a few hundred yards away. The beach is amazing, and the coast path is well worth walking. And don't forget to visit the local deli! This was our first time visiting this area, and I am sure we will return. A great place for a family with 3 boys aged 11-17. The owner was extremely helpful, and gave us lots of advice on things to do in the area, and also on our journey onwards to the Edinburgh festival, which was invaluable.

Having stayed here last year we knew what to expect, a well equipped house, ideally situated with breath taking views and it did not disappoint. After some initial problems with the central heating we enjoyed our stay. I have to say that throughout the issue with the central heating the owner kept in touch and tried to have the issue resolved in the quickest time.

Beautifully quaint but modern house steps from beach, local businesses and fine dining. Fabulous view of tide going in and out. On the ocean front walk to the lighthouse and Lady’s Tower. Fully equipped kitchen and updated main bath with shower. A place and town one could return to year after year.
