The Cottage

Old stone.
New soul.

"An 18th-century stone cottage transformed into something truly special — ancient character meets bold contemporary design."

Rose Cottage sits in the quiet hamlet of Chance Inn, just 9 miles from St Andrews and the breathtaking East Neuk coastline. The original stone shell has been meticulously extended and redesigned — exposed oak beams, sage green shaker kitchen with brass hardware, feature wishing well in the garden, and picture-frame windows framing long views over the Fife countryside.

Sleeping up to 8 across three bedrooms and a mezzanine nook, it's equally at home for romantic couples, families with children, or a group of golf enthusiasts exploring the home of the game.

Mezzanine nook
A Hidden Gem

The Mezzanine Nook

Tucked above the main living space, the mezzanine is one of Rose Cottage's most talked-about features. Two cosy single beds, warm ambient lighting and a full entertainment setup make it the favourite spot in the house — for kids and adults alike.

Whether it's a movie night under the rafters or a rainy afternoon gaming session, the mezzanine transforms the cottage from a beautiful space into a genuinely memorable experience.

The mezzanine was an absolute hit with our kids — they barely came downstairs! The cottage itself is magazine-worthy. Ancient stone outside, stunning contemporary interior inside. Already booked for next year.

Perfect for a golf trip — 15 minutes from the Old Course and an absolutely beautiful base to come back to after a day on the links. The log burner, the views, the Nespresso in the morning. Perfection.

We loved the eco credentials — knowing the cottage runs on solar and we could charge our EV made the whole trip feel completely guilt-free. Stunning design, immaculate throughout. We'll be back.
