It is just a few steps from the working harbour; currently the most active of the fishing ports in the East Neuk coast of Fife, 20 minutes from St Andrews.

The house was perfect for our family gathering. It had everything we needed to cook family meals and a lovely big sitting room to watch TV and play games together. Nicely situated to do the coastal walks to Anstruther and St Monan. Also to visit St Andrews and the V&A museum in Dundee.

This was our second stay at Binny Cottage. The cottage is a beautiful, comfortable place from which to explore the East Neuk. The cottage has a spacious kitchen and family room on separate floors, two recently renovated baths and 3 bedrooms with a bonus TV room that can be converted. The garden is gorgeous and the views of the harbour and the chimneys of the town are breathtaking. The biggest improvement since our last stay in 2022 is a separate outbuilding with a new W/D. An absolute must when traveling with teenagers! Don't miss the Cocoa Tree and Clock Tower Cafe...good food and really nice people. Sam/Jeremy are very responsive hosts and we are very much looking forward to our next stay at Binny!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Binny Cottage! The location was a dream, finding the property and parking were both simple, and the cottage itself was perfectly cozy, clean, and extremely well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook up some beautiful meals with local ingredients and Sam and Jeremy's tips on where to go made our stay in Pittenweem feel like a home away from home.We can't thank you both enough for our wonderful Christmas holiday in Scotland! And we're already discussing a return!
