If you love getting away to coastal Fife and the East Neuk, you'll love the Robinson Crusoe Retreat Cottages in picturesque Lower Largo. Ideal for couples of families, there's a choice of one or three bedroom cottages perfectly located within a few strides of the beach and the Fife Coastal Path, and just a short drive from Elie Holiday Park. Dogs are welcome and there's free Wifi too.
101 Robinson Crusoe's Retreat is peacefully located in a quiet corner of Lower Largo, a picturesque East Neuk seaside village, within a few strides of the beach and the Fife Coastal Path, and just a short drive from Elie Holiday Park - it's the perfect getaway for couples.
Set on one level, this ground floor holiday accommodation has been beautifully restored to make the most of traditional features and comprises one double bedroom, a shower room with wc, a spacious yet cosy open-plan living/dining area with feature log-burning fireplace and a fully fitted breakfasting kitchen (including: fridge-freezer, electric fan oven, gas hob, microwave oven and washing machine).
The Retreat is part of the delightful Crusoe Building, a B-listed property which lies on the original site of the birthplace of Alexander Selkirk - the original castaway that inspired Daniel Defoe to write the tales of Robinson Crusoe. And being just a stone's throw from the beach and Fife Coastal Path, makes this the perfect holiday bolthole.
Free WiFi is provided in 101 Robinson Crusoe's Retreat for your enjoyment.
Guests are also welcome to enjoy the bar, restaurant, café and free entertainment at nearby Elie Holiday Park at their leisure (10 mins drive). Elie Holiday Park can also be accessed via the Fife Coastal Path (3 miles).
