“We had a very warm welcome from the hosts who explained where everything was, how the hot water/heating worked and the items in the welcome hamper came in useful.”

The cottage is exactly as described and in a stunning location. We are more than happy to return in the future and recommend to family and friends.

“Really enjoyed our stay.”

Near the charming whisky village of Newburgh...The Cottage is lovely, everything was perfect. The fireplace and generous store of wood kept us cozy in December. Hosts are top notch. Highly recommend!

Ms Holland September 2019

“Perfect getaway holiday.”

Cottage is set in glorious countryside, with a stunning view of the River Tay from the conservatory. Most relaxing holiday for years!
Mrs Williams September 2019

“Perfect location from which you can explore Fife.”

The accommodation is superb. Spacious, comfortable and very well equipped. The hosts could not have been more helpful. We took my elderly father with us and he loved it too.

“We had such a wonderful week at 3 Balhelvie Farm Cottage.”

Iain and Christine were so helpful in the run up to our holiday and on the day of arrival Iain met us and showed us around, also giving us some ideas about local places to visit. We had a lovely welcome pack of bread, jams, biscuits and tea and coffee which was lovely. The photos of the front view out the conservatory don't do it justice - the sunsets we saw were spectacular, we really enjoyed evenings in the conservatory just gazing out at the distance. We must have arrived at the best time of year as the rear garden was full of beautiful flowers, very well maintained and the garden furniture was perfect for relaxing in the sun. Christine had made the two beds into 2 kings which were so comfortable! We slept so well every night, and there was so much space and storage in both rooms for all our clothes and bags. The kitchen was very well equipped, the coffee machine very well used too! All the little duck and chicken ornaments in the kitchen kept our friend's one year old very amused at dinner time. We visited St Andrews a few times which is less than 30 minutes away, Dundee across the bridge was similar distance and the beautiful Loch Lomond was less than 90 minutes away so it's a great base for exploring. I would highly recommend 3 Balhalvie Cottage for your next trip to Scotland! Simply beautiful, we'll definitely be back. We have a little pup and we know he would love it too - would you consider becoming pet friendly? :)

About the location

NEWBURGH, FIFE

St. Andrews 20.1 miles; Cupar 10.5 miles

The royal burgh and parish of Fife is an agricultural community positioned alongside the salmon fishing waters of the River Tay, overlooking the marshy Mugdrum Island. To the east lies the ancient Lindores Abbey, a historical and overgrown ruin left to be uncovered. There are plenty of attractions nearby such as, the Lindores Abbey Distillery for whisky lovers, the National Trust's Balmerino Abbey with its atmospheric 13th-century ruins and the Backhouse Rossie Estate, an RHS Partner Garden with rare plants, woodland walking and children's trails. The Tentsmuir National Nature Reserve at Morton Lochs offers something for everyone, an ever changing landscape with seals hauling themselves out of the water, hungry birds looking for food and a rich variety of nature's wonders. Though the village of Newburgh may be small, there are many treasures drawing in visitors; the remains of Macduff's Cross are a historical landmark to discover, Newburgh Sailing Club and Laing Museum featuring antiquarian artefacts of Newburgh's Alexander Laing. This delightful location is one for adventurous visitors seeking a rejuvenating break to the Fife countryside.
