Reviews for this holiday cottage rental in Fife & St Andrews, United Kingdom

Fife & St Andrews holiday cottage rental rating 55/5
Braehead Cottage, Falkland, Fife
Brocher  Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Review Submitted: September 2, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
My wife and I spent a wonderful relaxing week in this delightful cottage in the beautiful village of Falkland. The amenities provided by Lorraine are first class making the property a real home from home but without the hurly burly of daily life. We were even encouraged to use all of the cooking ingredients so thoughtfully provided. As for the village itself; it has a good selection of tearooms and restaurants for such a small place making it a great place to eat out; there are three pubs supplying typical pub food; the local post office doubles as a mini market; there is also a small bakery; Falkland Palace with its beautiful gardens is also well worth a visit; the whole village is bedecked with floral displays in window boxes and hanging baskets as well as in an old farm cart.
