“Great cottage...a week of peace and quiet” A fantastic cottage which is well equipped with everything you could think of, home from home infact. We stayed in the cottage for a week and found it to be very comfortable. Because the property is so recently renovated everything has that "new" feeling to it. We were most impressed by the kindness of the owners, Stewart and Lindsey, who were very helpful and were keen to make sure everything was to our satisfaction...We can safely say it was. I cant really find any other words to say how impressed we were with the cottage, there are plenty of places to visit nearby and I would recommend a trip to St Andrew's which is only a 30 minute drive away. The village of Falkland is lovely, very quaint and obviously cared about by the local community ( denoted by the many plant tubs strewn around the village and the obvious lack of litter which I personally believe shows how well looked after a place is ). The Bruce Inn is well worth a visit, the food was great and was well priced, good portions etc. The Stag Inn is also worth a visit, live Scottish themed music on selected evenings which was a real treat. All in all, a great week was had by all and I would recommend a stay at Courtside Cottage, thanks.
