Photos and Description of the East Neuk of Fife vacation house rental
Charming 2 Bedroom Apartment (sleeps 5)

Set within a stunning, well appointed Victorian villa in the beautiful seaside village of Lundin Links, East Neuk of Fife. Which sleeps up to 5 people (Please note prices quoted are for the house as a unit NOT per person/room)

This lovely holiday home is situated in a quiet residential street, 2 mins walk away from the beach and Largo Bay with its break taking views over the bay to Edinburgh and its white sandy beaches.

The apartment has two well proportioned bedrooms (1 double, 1 twin), a large lounge/ dining room with a modern gas fire, a separate kitchen and a newly fitted bathroom with walk in shower.

Hillhead House provides the perfect setting for a family holiday, a golfing trip or a sightseeing tour of the Kingdom of Fife.

Attactions: Besides from relaxing and enjoying the slower pace of life in Fife, there are a whole host of things to do during your stay.

We are very well positioned for trips to Edinburgh, Perth and Dundee (By car, or public transport) and St Andrews, Scotland's oldest university town and the home of the world-famous Royal and Ancient golf club is less than 15mins drive away. The town has wonderful shops, restaurants and miles of sandy beaches.

Lundin Links is also surrounded by the Picturesque tiny stone harbours of the fishing villages of the East Neuk - Anstruther, Crail, St Monans and Pittenweem. All of which are ideal for a gentle walk and a breath of fresh sea air! For the more daring walker or cyclist, the house is situated on the Fife Coastal Path, specifically designed for walkers and cyclists, which follows the coast line from Kirkcaldy right around to St Andrews.

Stay in March

Submitted: March 11, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
Hillhead House had everything you required for a great self catering holiday. The beds were extremely comfortable and the property was warm despite the cold outside. The location was ideal for us as Lower Largo was only a 5 minute walk away with lovely walks along the beach. There were public transport links close by with buses to Leven and Kirkcaldy in one direction and the East Neuk of Fife and St Andrews in the other direction, Stuart the owner was very helpful also.

Home from home by the sea

5 of 5
Submitted: January 11, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
Having enjoyed a very restful stay in this comfortable, spotlessly clean and well-equipped property, I would recommend it without hesitation. Located in the peaceful village of Lundin Links, the property is just a short stroll to the beach and an even shorter one to the local hotel. It's within easy reach of St Andrews and other places along the scenic Fife coast for day trips.
The house itself had everything we needed, and more, for our stay. It's set in a quiet residential street with little traffic or other outside noise. The organisation was smooth and the directions were clear.
All in all, a great base for a break by the sea. We'll be back!

Three generations of my family spent a very comfortable week exploring the East Neuk from this delightful holiday home. Photographs on web provide a very accurate picture of Hillhead House. We loved the secluded garden which was perfect for our toddler! A real home from home, meaning we will certainly be returning in the future.

HILLHEAD HOUSE

5 of 5
Submitted: July 17, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
Despite arriving at the house in the middle of a downpour, the accommodation was welcoming with all mod cons ready and waiting. The photos, on the website, were very accurate, and fully reflect just how bright, clean, tidy and cosy the house is.
We were impressed with the local area literature available in the sitting room. We used the imformation to find two, really excellent, Indian restaurants in St Andews!
Meals at the Lundin Links Hotel, the Old Manor and the Crusoe were also nice.
Fresh bread etc is always delicious from Stuarts on the main street (a 5 minute walk from the house).
Despite the weather, we had an enjoyable stay, and would be happy to come back for a return visit.
