Such a beautiful well equipped cottage and a great location to explore the coastal paths.
Such a beautiful well equipped cottage and a great location to explore the coastal paths. Travelling late in Novembers meant you miss out of boat trips and the secret bunker as it is out of season. But it is so beautiful with so much to see it is well worth the trip.

Perfect bolthole.
Perfect bolthole. We had a lovely week at Fidra. View from the porthole was amazing. Had everything we needed. Comfortable and homely. Anstruther was a great base for our week. Waterfront restaurant a must do. Food and service was perfect. The Ship tavern was an amazing place for a relaxing drink. Everywhere extremely friendly. The fisheries museum was a major surprise so much better than we could have imagined. We will definitely return.
Fidra was everything that we could hope for. Spotlessly clean ,cosy and very comfortable. Tastefully decorated and the owners had thought of everything that you could possibly need. Situated right by the beach on a stunning coast line. Sorry to leave but we will be back. Thank you Fidra for making us feel so welcome.
