Caiplie House

Caiplie House has five lovely en-suite rooms, two of which have sea views.

We pride ourselves in offering great Scottish breakfasts! Dinner is also available, please call to book Caiplie House is centrally situated in the picturesque village of Crail in The East Neuk of Fife. Crail has a magical atmosphere, enticing visitors back year after year and enchanting new visitors. The harbour must be seen, it is understandably the most photographed in Scotland. Lobsters and crabs are landed here and can be bought fresh at the waters' edge. Dressed Crail crab is a favourite local dish!

A small beach nestles in the bay adjacent to Crail harbour, many more can be found on the surrounding coastline that is host to a multitude of flora and fauna.

Golfers make the most of this coastline with some fabulous links courses in the local area. Balcomie links by Crail is one of the oldest golf courses in the world and of course St Andrews lies only 10 miles away with The Old Course being it's best known course.

Walkers, ramblers or trampers are now being encouraged to discover the Fife coastline with the Fife Coastal Path, a well-marked path from North Queensferry, by the famous Forth bridges, to Crail. We can arrange all your accommodation and arrange a bag moving service if you wish to walk the path.

A very good network of cycle routes has also been developed in Fife. You can follow well-marked routes for short fun cycles or longer more testing routes. Again your accommodation can be arranged in and around Fife and your luggage can be moved for you.

This is only a very brief outline of what there is to see and do in and around Crail and The East Neuk of Fife. Boat trips, water-sports, museums, galleries, gardens and many more attractions await you.

When you do come to Crail you can expect a warm welcome at Caiplie House. Caiplie House is a substantial Victorian house on three levels. The accommodation comprises five guests' bedrooms all recently modernised and all offering good value for money. Some of the bedrooms benefit from a sea view with the Isle of May, the Bass Rock and the East Lothian coast all prominent. A blend of rooms is available with single, twin, double, triple or family rooms. All rooms have en-suite facilities.

Dinner is available at Caiplie house. Enjoy local produce cooked in a traditional way with contemporary influences. Please arrange dinner before your arrival, contact Caiplie House if you have any special requests.... maybe some seafood or a nice sirloin steak for the evening you arrive! Take advantage of our drinks licence and enjoy a bottle of wine with your meal or malt whisky as a nightcap.

Breakfast should set you up for the day with Scottish and continental breakfasts available. A bowl of porridge, our full Scottish breakfast or smoked haddock should be enough to keep you going until you come back for dinner!
