Ben The Hoose

Ben The Hoose works well for families with younger children or two couples sharing. The whole property is yours alone—three bedrooms (one with a king bed and ensuite, two with bunks), two bathrooms, and space for six. Everything sits on the ground floor, with just two steps to the entrance. The kitchen has a full range of appliances for cooking proper meals; there's a utility room with washing and tumble-drying; and the living room has a smart TV. Essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi are covered. A travel cot and highchair are available if needed.

The house stands in Anstruther, a working fishing village in the East Neuk. From the front door, the sandy beach and harbour are a five-minute walk. A courtyard with a BBQ and garden furniture faces out to a private hot tub built for six people. Two cars can park on the property. The village itself has a play area nearby for children, and plenty of amenities within easy reach. No smoking inside. A welcome pack arrives with you—prosecco chilling in the fridge and a home-made cake.
