Now transformed and finished to an extremely high standard, The Old Stables has two en-suite bedrooms and a sociable open plan layout to the living spaces making it ideal for a family or friends. Located just off the high street and close to all the independent village shops and amenities The Old Stables is tucked away on a quiet lane. A short downhill stroll leads to the picturesque harbour and popular Fife Coastal Path. Entering through the bright porch where there is plenty space for walking boots, golf clubs and fishing nets to be stored, the living space extends across the first level. Comfortable seating in the lounge area provides the perfect place to relax after a day exploring, or watch the world go by from the window seats. The extremely well-equipped kitchen has everything you could need for a self-catering stay and a dining table to gather around as you enjoy some of the fantastic local produce and recount the day’s adventures. With dual aspect windows and the glass balustrade which surrounds the stairs there is plenty of light reflected around the space. The stairs lead down to the lower level where there are two bedrooms, named after the last hard-working plough horses to have been stabled there- Meteor and Betsy. Meteor is a king size room with a quality Emma mattress and plenty of storage. The en-suite shower room has underfloor heating and also houses the utility area. Betsy is a twin room which can be arranged as a superking room on request. This room has a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. Both bedrooms have windows looking over the quiet lane. There is a small patio area to the front with table and four chairs, perfect for catching the morning sun with a coffee or sunset with a glass of wine. Parking is available on street at the parking area just beyond the accommodation. Crail is a bustling fishing village steeped in history. The character filled streets are charming and quaint and offer a gentle pace of life as you meander through the lanes and along the coastal path with incredible sea views. The East Neuk is well known for its vibrant arts community, rich fishing heritage and fabulous array of local producers from seafood to cider and bread to berries and many great cafes, restaurants and bistros serving fresh fare. It's also ideal for those who enjoy the outdoors with several world-renowned golf courses in the area, watersports and tidal pools for some wild swimming.
