Interaction with guests
I will generally be on site but am always available on the phone if needed to answer any queries.

PS I do not have any cooking faciites as my thought is that most use it as an overnighter and not somewhere to sit all day – but I also offer full breakfast or dinner inside my own house in the conservatory if pre booked.

Great host and picturesque location

Kimmie was absolutely the most gracious and welcoming host. The Wee Dookit was very nice, very clean, very cozy. The outside patio area was great for a late evening snack and glass of wine after returning from the Open Championship. You golfers, this place is only a 20-25 min drive from St Andrews. Check your price performance!

About the host

Host profile image
I was born in Scotland and have lived in fife for the last 45 years. I am a wedding consultant by profession and decided to build my cabin last year as I have a large garden, as a long term plan to keep me busy when I eventually stop doing weddings!

Why they chose this property

I love timber and my garden lends itself to this type of structure.
