From the owner

Binny Cottage is a unique adjoining of 2 traditional fisherman's cottages offering cosy yet spacious accommodation in the popular fishing village of Pittenweem. Beautifully restored by the National Trust, the cottage is situated opposite St Fillans Cave (Pittenweem means "Place of the Caves" derived from Pictish and Scottish Gaelic). 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.

Scotland's East Neuk of Fife coast is an ideal holiday destination renowned for its gorgeous beaches, coastal walks, quaint fishing villages, world class golf and delicious local food. Pittenweem boasts the last working fishing harbour and a vibrant artistic community makes it an ideal home to the now famous arts festival. The village offers excellent local amenities including shops, village store, cafes and galleries.

The cottage is much photographed by visitors to the area and is situated in Cove Wynd; one of the prettiest Wynds in Pittenweem. The white house with red roof illustrates perfectly the classic East Neuk building style.
