Pittenweem is a picturesque old fishing village with an interesting historical past. In the centre of the village most of the brightly painted houses retain the traditional pan tiled roofs and many artists live and have galleries in the village. Pittenweem is now virtually the only working fishing village left in the East Neuk of Fife.
The cottage is situated in the centre of the village and is close to all the amenities such as the post office and a range of traditional shops as well as cafes and pubs which serve food (sea food a speciality). This part of Fife is renowned for its many fine golf courses and has good walking opportunities with abundant wildlife. The ancient historical town of St Andrews is 15 minutes drive away and there are many other visitor attractions in the area as well as interesting shops and good restaurants.
