Please note: There are 9 steps in the garden.. This charming, bijou, terraced cottage with a red pantile roof, dating back to 1780 when it was a weavers cottage, is located in the centre of the historic picturesque village of Ceres. Well Cottage has been thoughtfully furnished for comfort and ease, and is the perfect location for a relaxing retreat for a couple. There are excellent cycling and footpaths from the cottage door and the Fife Folk Museum is across the road, as well as the village green. This conservation village has a good pub and a hotel serving food, tea rooms, an antique shop, a family butchers, village store and the renowned Wemyss Ware Pottery. Scotland’s oldest highland games are held on the last Saturday in June. The picture-postcard East Neuk of Fife with fishing villages and sandy beaches are within easy driving distance, and St Andrews is only seven miles away and well worth a visit. This area is renowned for its golf, with a multitude of excellent courses within easy reach. Trout fishing is available locally (licence required). Edinburgh, Dundee and Perth are all within an hour’s drive. When you return to the cottage after exploring the area, you can sit back with a glass of wine in front of the cosy fire. Golf is also available nearby.

Peaceful Cottage

We had a lovely short break at Well Cottage in Ceres. The property was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The owners gave us a warm welcome. Well Cottage is located in beautiful surroundings with everything you need close to hand. It is an ideal location to visit St. Andrews, Cupar and many other charming areas of Scotland.

We loved our very first stay at Well Cottage. Such an amazing find. The cottage is in a perfect location and has catered for all the exploring of the nearby wonderful beaches with our furry boy. Thoughtful welcoming touches for guests including the furry guests. Such a gem of a cottage to come back to and relax after long days out. We can’t wait for our return in 2021.

Bill & Lesley should be rightly proud of their little cottage.

Bill & Lesley should be rightly proud of their little cottage. It is immaculate. The location is ideal for exploring the Kingdom of Fife, with the village of Ceres itself having all you need - butcher, convenience store and the pub. The cottage also has everything you need, even an iPod dock. The bed was king sized and very comfortable; the kitchen had all the appliances you need for a comfortable self-catering few days, or longer. We had a wonderfully relaxing five days. Thank you.

We loved Well Cottage. It was cosy, clean and very well-equipped. Ceres is a lovely wee village with lots of other places to explore close by. There really isn’t anything we would change about the cottage, the village or the surrounding area. Would highly recommend. Thank you.
