Description
Top-Floor Apartment with Sea Views towards Elie Ness Lighthouse, on Elie High Street | Sleeps 4 | Pet-Friendly
The Crow's Nest is a welcoming top-floor apartment with lovely sea views towards Elie Ness Lighthouse, Elie Harbour and across the Firth of Forth. Set on the second floor of a Category C-listed building (the former Queen's Hotel) on Elie High Street facing the Toll Green, it's perfectly positioned for enjoying village life — local shops, pubs and restaurants are on your doorstep, and Elie's long sandy beach is less than a five-minute walk away.
Sleeping up to 4 guests across two bedrooms with a fresh, modern shower room, WiFi is included, and one well-behaved dog is welcome (supplement applies).
The Space
Behind double storm doors, a smart communal hall and staircase lead up to the apartment. Inside, the bright lounge/dining room is the star of the show, with a bay window framing those lighthouse and sea views, comfortable seating for four, a dining table and Smart TV — ideal for relaxed evenings after a day on the beach, the coastal path or nearby golf courses.
Offering 61 m² of accommodation in all, the separate kitchen also faces the front and is fitted with modern units and plenty of worktop space — well equipped for self-catering, handy for easy breakfasts, picnics or simple suppers.
