Holmlea Cottage, a sweet and charming getaway in a picturesque Fife village.

Holmlea Cottage is a 180 year old stone cottage with high ceilings and original features, set in the prettiest little road in the centre of Fife. Lomond Road is narrow and set with pretty cottages on both sides, and within yards of Holmlea it narrows to a path and wooden bridge leading over a meandering burn, the path leads to a 2 1/2 mile walk up the Lomonds where great views are to be had in all directions. Freuchie is a friendly village with cosy pubs, local shops and is only 2 miles from the historic village of Falkland, where you can visit the wonderful Falkland Palace and gardens, famous teashops and lovely walks to Mapsie Den waterfall and the laid back Pillars of Hercules cafe and organic shop. You are also within easy travelling distance of beautiful and historic St Andrews with its golden beaches and golf courses, the East Neuk with its pretty harbours, and Dundee's new V & A design museum. Holmlea cottage is furnished in a pretty and vintage style with original artworks on the walls by the owner and her family, many of which are for sale. The cottage has many original features, and lovely antique furniture, as well as gorgeous textiles and carefully chosen items such as lamps, ornaments and other objects which give it a homely and attractive style, Guests always comment on how they love the details and comfort, and don't want to leave!
