Aptly named ‘Making Waves’, this stunning property sits right on the sea shore in the pretty fishing port of Cellardyke on the east Fife coast. Enjoying a unique position and furnished and equipped to an excellent standard with Sky Sports, Wi-Fi and three good sized bedrooms, the property couldn’t be better placed for exploring the Fife coastline. The property has beautiful views towards May Island, Bass Rock and North Berwick Law from the kitchen, dining room and master bedroom. Outside the south facing garden looks right over the shore, the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine and watch the fishing boats sailing by. A short stroll brings you to the neighbouring town of Anstruther, which has a good selection of shops, pubs and The Cellar Restaurant, holder of 3AA rosettes and UK seafood restaurant of the year. For the more energetic, the Fife Coastal Path runs for 150km nearby, and for cyclists, the Millennium Cycle Way has 300 miles of quiet country roads, disused railways and forest tracks to explore. Look out for boat trips to the Isle of May, a National Nature Reserve where you can spot puffins and seals. Boats leave from the port at Anstruther between April and September. Free WiFi There are steps within the property. One or more beds can be linked to form double or twin beds (please advise the owner of your preference prior to arrival).

We loved the house. Wonderful views with spectacular sunrises and sunsets. Very cosy downstairs lounge with great coal effect fire. Great walks from the house in both directions. We especially loved the walk from Anstruther to Crail with a bus back every hour. The owners were very helpful in offering early arrival and late departure.

We had visited Making Waves before so we knew what to expect, albeit this time strict Covid protocols were being followed to provide peace of mind to guests. It is a cosy, historic fisherman's cottage overlooking the sea, with a garden and small balcony to enjoy the view. Sky Sports is a bonus/essential - take your pick! It is ideally located for strolls along the coastal walk to Crail, Pittenweem etc or a drive into St Andrews. The Anstruther shops are excellent (try the cheese and leak loaf from Barnetts, the butcher and the deli - and, of course, the famous chippies). Highly recommended.
