About this property

Salt Herrings cottage is a stunning conversion of an old Cooperage set in a spectacular waterfront location, and is ideal for those who wish to spend time by the sea in a beautiful setting.It now also benefits from the new outside sitting area (Sitooterie) which is not attached to the property and is accessed through the courtyard at the rear of the cottage.
There are 2 bedrooms on the ground floor, one twin and one double. The double has a luxury ensuite with slipper bath. There is a separate bathroom with shower opposite the twin bedroom. Both bedrooms have sea views.
A staircase leads up to the stunning open plan kitchen/dining and living area. The solid oak kitchen is fully equipped and has an integrated fridge, built in oven and ceramic hob. The living area has a wood burning stove. There are seven south facing windows from which to enjoy the ever changing and forever memorable sea views across the Firth of Forth to Berwick Law, Isle of May and along the coast to Crail. Truly wonderful!

Salt Herrings is situated in one of a number of small fishing villages in the picturesque East Neuk of Fife. This cottage, totally renovated to the highest standards and tastefully decorated throughout is an ideal base to explore this wonderful part of Scotland.

This part of Fife is also ideal for exploring further afield. It is only an hours drive to Edinburgh, Stirling and Perth.

Cosy bolt hole

This property is in a beautiful location overlooking the Cellardyke tidal pool. It is a mile to walk into Anstruther. Very warm and cosy even on a cold and snowy night.

A bucket list trip

We so very much enjoyed our stay at this lovely pristine property. Ian and Janis are wonderful hosts and were most helpful. We so enjoyed the views of the ocean from the upstairs windows- quite a treat for prairie folks. We even braved a dip in the tidal pools down the road October 1! We would stay here again in a heartbeat if we are blessed enough to return to the area of Scotland in the future . Many,many thanks .

Great Place to Stay

We are return guests to the Cooperage. Usually stay at number 5 but number 4 is just as good. Although a little fiddly to get to down narrow streets it is well worth it. The panoramic sea view from the living/kitchen/dining room is fantastic. The property has everything you need, and it is only a short walk to Anstruther if you want to eat out. Only one thing missing is a charging point for shavers/electric toothbrushes, will bring an adaptor next time! Great location for golf courses which stretch all along the Fife coast.
