19 Shoregate

Crail

Overview

Description Facilities Location Additional Info

A traditional Crail fisherman’s house perched just above the most photographed harbour in Scotland, 19 Shoregate is a coastal retreat bursting with character. This quirky, historical property offers stunning views over the harbour and out to the Firth of Forth.

The ground floor encompasses the main living spaces, including a kitchen/diner with a large dining table, TV lounge, and large conservatory or ‘sun room’, retaining many of its original features including internal exposed brickwork. The back door leads to a private, enclosed rear garden where you can access the annex, which is equipped with a double bed and en-suite shower room.

There is a master bathroom with a shower over bath set across the first floor, including three further bedrooms; a super king or twin, a double and a twin.

The second-floor compromises of the remaining two bedrooms; a single and a double. There is an additional bathroom on this floor also.

The private, fully enclosed rear garden and patio area can be accessed via the conservatory and provides the perfect space to enjoy the sunshine and fresh, coastal air.

Crail harbour and the Fife Coastal Path is less than a minutes’ walk away, as is the famous Lobster shack. Crail high street is just a minutes’ walk away in the opposite direction, where you can find all the local shops, cafes, and restaurants.

19 Shoregate has beautifully exposed interior brickwork throughout. It’s very close to the harbour and beach. Lovely garden and full of character.

Fantastic location. Perfect mix of quaint accommodations and modern convenience of updated baths, well equipped kitchen, responsive WiFi and Television. Easy to charge our electronics. We were a family of 3 generations with 9 adult members and this met all our needs. Our golfers were able to drive to courses easily. Walk to beach, great coffee shop overlooking harbor and local businesses.

The ‘Bolthole’ is a lovely place to stay and with 4 social spaces plus the garden always possible to find somewhere peaceful even with 10 residents including 4 young children. The house has everything necessary to make the stay pleasant. When there were issues the response from Kingask was excellent.

This is a lovely location in the heart of a beautiful fishing village. Close to the harbour and the Fife coastal path. A good spot for a gathering of friends and family.
