Would gladly stay at this place again .The house was very clean ,homely and had plenty of space for the whole family .The town itself has plenty of eateries ,lively walks and wee individual shops.Although the tall ship is near the road on the side street it was very quiet and the views from the upstairs bedroom was fantastic .Would defo recommend this house for both space and something that wee bit different and I will gladly be booking it in the near future again on our next visit . Thanks for a most pleasurable stay ❤️ From a partner site ### 8/10 Good #### rhona M. May 30, 2024 #### In the heart of Anstruther A good location which can get a touch noisy at night with the pub/restaurant next door however they close at 11pm. If you are tall you must be careful on the doors! Plenty of facilities for our family stay - laundry room etc. Fife Premier stays are a super responsive letting agent so no problem with customer care. ##### rhona M. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### catherine m. Nov 28, 2024 #### Lovely quirky flat The flat is really nice. The bedrooms are all spacious and clean The views are amazing from each room. The kitchen is very well equipped. Livingroom is very cosy with the log fire. It's very central, restaurant and bars 5 mins. Harbour is on your doorstep. We booked the weekend of Storm Bert. All of us where drenched but the hosts let us get in 3 hrs early. We where absolutely grateful of this. Definitely go back to this property. ##### catherine m. From a partner site ### 8/10 Good #### juliette howarth Nov 1, 2023 #### Situated perfectly in the heart of Anstruther We booked the Tall Ship for a short break away in October, it’s perfectly situated, 2mins from the beach and all the amenities, parking is a 5 minute walk away. The facilities were great and we did thoroughly enjoy our wee trip! The only criticism we all had (5 of us) was that the quality of the beds let the house down, the 2 double beds creaked and squeaked to the point you didn’t want to move ! The overall quality of the beds were substandard and we all obviously didn’t get the required sleep! ##### juliette howarth From a partner site ### 4/10 Poor #### Laura S. Aug 13, 2023 #### Ok Not very clean upon arrival Bath didn’t work Mould in bathroom No parking at property (which is disclosed on website but what wasn’t disclosed was arts festival was on at time of booking and so no local parking which meant had to park ten mins away from property ) ##### Laura S. Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Dan M. Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Very convenient location for walking around Anstruther. Parking was not great but available a short distance away along the street. It took two days to get WiFi because the equipment was changed and the login information was not. Lots of stairs in the unit. Convenient to restaurants and bars. ##### Dan M. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Moira C. Jul 25, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Family Break In need of a full refresh. The stair carpet was dirty and there were damp patches on some of the ceilings. Living area was cramped and not really comfortable for six adults. The kitchen was well equipped but again when using the dining area it was cramped. On the plus side we had great weather and the venue was central ##### Moira C. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 From a partner site ### 6/10 Okay Oct 27, 2023 #### The Tall Ship @Anstruther The Tall Ship is in a great location but unfortunately with a dog and no garden we had to walk her each morning early to the harbour. Our grandchildren enjoyed the quirkyness of the house! It had all we needed in the kitchen and enough towels etc for our 4day stay. One thing I think would improve is to have a couple of lamps in the sitting area as the ceiling lights very bright while watching t.v. ( table lamp in the twin bedroom not working!) Instructions as to where the rubbish bins were wasn’t clear and we had to phone to find out- we managed to take our rubbish to some bins nearby on the street? All said we would recommend The Tall Ship as it’s in a great location although parking also a nightmare! We had to park up in the car park by the Co-Op!
