This beautiful 3 bed house was ideal for our family trip. All bedrooms have their own bathroom & the downstairs bedroom was perfect for my mother in law. The open plan living, dining & kitchen area was ideal for family meals. The kitchen has plenty of kitchen equipment & lots of crockery. We had a guide dog with us & there was plenty of outdoor space for him.

A beautifully decorated modern accommodation which is very well equipped, a great home from home, with plenty of room for a great family get together. This is in a fantastic location for driving out to St.Andrews and historic castles in the area.. not to far to walk to local shop and pub! Good walks in local area!

We had an incredible stay at The Beehouse. The place was spacious, clean, and it felt like we were in a movie. The location is so peaceful and perfect for my spouse, me, and our friends with a 2-year-old. They even pulled out a crib for him to sleep in. It was great being able to close the door to the kitchen/living room and let the little one roam around. The host was attentive and even allowed us to order a supermarket delivery to the VRBO. I hope we can come back to stay again.

Secret rural gem indeed! We rented this property for our daughter's first year move-in to St Andrews, and we couldn't have been more delighted! Coming from the east coast of the US it was the quintessential Scotland experience we'd hoped for - stone walls, rolling hills and rustic charm! Only about 15 minutes from St Andrews it provided the perfect respite we needed during what was a hectic and emotional time. Sparkling clean, extremely comfortable, and very cozy! I hadn't slept that well in weeks! Elizabeth was very communicative and accommodating and the house had everything we needed. We can't wait to go back!

A beautiful house and fantastic host

We had an absolutely wonderful time during our stay here over Christmas. The Beehouse is beautiful and amazingly well appointed and set in truly spectacular surroundings, and Elizabeth couldn't have make us feel more welcome, with quick responses to all our questions and thoughtful little touches than made us feel really at home - the perfect host. It's one of the nicest places we've stayed, and we will definitely be back!

Tranquil setting

Just what we were looking for, spacious, comfortable accommodation in a lovely setting. Right in the heart of the countryside but still close to amenities. There are plenty of beautiful places for great dog walks, including a stunning beach nearby in St Andrew’s. It was a pleasure staying here with such kind and generous hosts.

SWEET AS A POT OF HONEY!

Everything about the Beehouse was perfect from the say we arrived until we had to sadly leave. It was like coming home to your favorite place. Everyone enjoyed the place. The host family were very pleasant and having the lovely "tess" who came in every now and then for a cuddle or a bisquit was an added bonus. We will definitely be back on our next holiday. The lovely cottage ticks all the boxes for our family.

The Beehouse - Perfect in every way.

We had an excellent weeks stay at The Beehouse. The house was very spacious and accommodated the six of us very comfortably. It was particularly nice to be able to take our dog with us. The views were outstanding. Elizabeth was a lovely host and was extremely helpful. This will become our rental of choice when visiting the beautiful East Neuk of Fife so much so that we have already rebooked for next year!

Fabulous home located between St Andrew's and Cupar. Perfect for couples/families traveling together

We just returned from a 13 night stay at The Bee House with fabulous hosts, Elizabeth and Guy. The house was everything and more that we were dreaming of, complete with 3 bedrooms with super king beds and lovely bathrooms. The bedding was so comfortable that my husband wants to buy it for our homes in the US!!! Cooking facilities are perfect for making daily breakfasts and great dinners, and the kitchen is stocked with everything you will need. It is located close by major attractions and we were able to drive daily to visit the surrounding areas as well as wonderful restaurants...some of which were recommended by our hosts. The house is located in a peaceful area which allows for great walks in every direction. The best part of this stay was Elizabeth and her lovely family who helped to make us feel right at home and helped us with our every need. She is an exceptional host and we already have recommended this location to our friends. I cannot say enough about how welcome we felt and how much we loved this stay. We will be back!

Beautiful scenery out every window!

Thank you Elizabeth for sharing your incredible property with us. So sorry we never got the chance to have a glass of wine, but our friends kept us busy! The Beehouse is perfectly appointed with everything we could possibly ask for. Every room had a serene, peaceful and relaxing view. Everywhere we went the people were so sweet and the small town's oozing with charm. It was nice having time to see our friends who live there and share Scotland with our friends from the States. We will be dreaming of the opportunity to return. Thank you. Jonny

Beautiful, perfect for our stay.

We chose this house for its proximity to where me parents live. The pictures don't quite do it justice - the downstairs with the wood burning stove and the bee boles is filled with light as there are windows on all sides. The furnishings are top notch, the kitchen is well-stocked and the bathrooms have been finished to a very high standard. The views are beautiful.
