Best place to stay in Anstruther.
Very nice hotel and restaurant. One of the few places to get something other than fish and chips or take-away. Couldn’t beat the location.

Nice East coast location, great coastal walks.
We stayed 4 nights. Very comfortable room with everything needed. Great breakfast choices overall, with lovely bowls of fresh fruits - though disappointed with very overcooked bacon, which we reported at the time. We walked the coast in both directions. Lovely walks, detouring into lovely little villages. Very good bus service.

Waterfront hotel in the middle of cute fishing tow
Waterfront hotel rooms are located behind their restaurant. You check in to your room at the restaurant. Our room was small but nicely furnished and had a large bathroom. A quiet courtyard has outdoor seating. Breakfast was included. It was order off the menu with a great selection. In fact this was the best breakfast of our 16-day vacation.This restaurant also serves dinner and I think it was the best in town. The hotel is located in the center of town but most places close at 9pm.

The accommodation was lovely and the area very nice. They need to fix the WiFi. Service at breakfast was very slow on one morning but the food was good. We ate once at the restaurant in the evening and the food was less good

Great experience with friendly helpful staff, excellent food (not your pre-packed re-heated stuff) at reasonable prices and modern, clean facilities. Room and en-suite was excellent. Only minor irritation was poor internet connection that timed- out quickly. This also affected TV service which relies on internet (presume because no standard TV signal available). Also a bit of gurgling from room next door's en-suite drains (Room B). Think this might be sorted easily if an air admittance valve could be fitted. Otherwise, really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.
