Situation
Set a street back from waterfront in the historic and sought-after East Neuk conservation village of St Monans, Kendal Cottage sits on the Fife Coastal Path. St Monans, along with Crail, Pittenweem, Anstruther, Cellardyke and Elie form the chain of beautiful traditional fishing villages that line the north shore of the Firth of Forth, with views to North Berwick, the Bass Rock, and the Isle of May and all linked by the Fife Coastal Path. The village provides a very good range of shops, services and amenities. The ancient historic cosmopolitan town of St Andrews is about a 20-minute drive to the north and offers an excellent range of facilities along with a highly regarded university. St Andrews is known worldwide as the “Home of Golf” with the 150th British Open Championship having visited in summer 2022. About 18 miles to the north-west is Cupar, Fife’s bustling county market town which also provides a good range of services. Dundee is within a 45-minute drive to the north with Edinburgh about an hour and 20 minutes to the south.

Surrounding St Monans is an area of outstanding Fife countryside comprising a lovely mix of fertile farmland, woodland, hill, stunning coastline and river. The result is home to an array of wildlife and for the outdoor enthusiast provides an area offering access to a wide range of recreational pursuits including riding, cycling, walking, sailing and golf. There are many highly rated golf courses within easy reach including the renowned courses at Crail, Kingsbarns, Dumbarnie, St Andrews Bay, Elie, Leven, Lundin Links and the numerous fine courses in and around St Andrews. The popular Fife Coastal Path runs through the village close to the property. In terms of days out the wide-open spaces of the Lomond Hills are not far away along with a number of popular National Trust for Scotland properties, notably the local Kellie Castle at Arncroach, Hill of Tarvit and Falkland Palace. Fife’s beautiful and varied coastline includes several good sandy beaches such as those at Elie, St Andrews, Kingsbarns and Tentsmuir. State schooling is available locally with private schooling provided at St Leonards in St Andrews. There are railway stations at Cupar, Ladybank, Markinch and Kirkcaldy and 2024 will bring the new rail connection at Leven. Edinburgh and Dundee airports are also well within reach.
