All good. Just great to be set away from the noise of city living. Bowhouse Farm is very welcoming and comfortable. It had everything we needed for a 4 night break away. We would gladly book again to stay here, without a thought of doubt. Thank you for having us

Fantastic for a family get together

Bowhouse is a beautiful old farmhouse set in a stunning location, it has a lovely energy about it, the house itself is a gem, with lots of little extras, I am an avid reader and love old books so l was very pleased with the collection of books on hand, also a nice selection of games for the kids. The garden is very well maintained and the dogs loved it. All in all, we had a very nice break and would love to visit again sometime when the weather is warmer and we could enjoy the garden and surrounding area at its best.

Lovely secluded house

We had a lovely weekend in this property it had everything you could need also quiet and secluded. The house was nice and warm for our arrival which was lovely as it is winter time! Lots of information for travellers on things to see and do if so desired. Would definitely return to Bowhouse.

Exceptional property and location

My family and I had a wonderful stay in Lochgelly. Beautiful older home full of charm which is well stocked. The home is much larger than we expected with plenty of room for the six of us to stretch out. Also, the location is absolutely stunning with the horses nearby and the rolling countryside. We enjoyed it so much we added an additional night. Highly recommended and look forward to our next stay. Philip

Fabulous location, tired property.

We had a lovely family holiday in a beautiful setting. The house is big and spacious but poorly maintained. The floors are very uneven. The upstairs shower didn’t drain away properly and downstairs shower was a spray. The sitting room furniture is uncomfortable, very old and very low making it difficult to rise from. We didn’t let any of this detract from having a great holiday but it would stop us renting again unless the property was upgraded.

altes Bauernhaus, liebevoll in Schuss gehalten

Das Haus und die Anlage werden regelmäßg gewartet und betreut. jederzeit ein gemähter Rasen und gepflegte Gartenanlage. Es ist ein altes Bauernhaus, das vom Prinzip alle Annehmlichkeiten bietet. Leider lässt die Reinigungskraft Schwächen erkennen. Wer die Nähe von Pferden und Land- Viehwirtschaft mag ist hier gut aufgehoben. Ruhe und Natur sind gegeben. Die Nachbarn sind nett und man hat seine Ruhe. Ausflüge in alle Richtungen sind schnell gemacht und einfach zu erreichen

Tolles gemütliches cottage

Wunderschönes Haus, direkt an einem Reiterhof gelegen mit tollen Blick über die Wiesen und Felder. Das Haus selbst ist ein altes Farmhaus, typisch britisch und liebevoll zurecht gemacht - aber eben schon ein wenig älter, was bei den Sanitäranlagen und den Fenstern schon auffällt (letzteres war für uns nicht so wichtig, denn wir hatten Sommer☀️). Küche inklusive Begrüßungspaket war super, Einkaufen nur 8 min entfernt - und wenn man der Beschreibung von Malcolm folgt, dann findet man das Bowhouse auch problemlos.

Beautiful old farmhouse in a beautiful setting!!!

This home is greatly located between Edinburgh and St Andrews. Very easy to get to a lot of places from this location. It is a narrow road getting back to the house as you are driving through the horse stables. Would definitely stay here again if we make the trip back to Scotland!!!

Wonderful Property

I wish we had been able to spend more time at the property, but we were in Scotland due to an event, that we spent most of the 5 days there.... I would not hesitate to rebook this property, as everything that you would need in a home, when on holiday, is present there. There is buckets loads of room so you never feel "squashed in" like a lot of the newer properties that are up for renting... As soon as we arrived we were met with complimentary food and milk, which is a very nice touch, and very welcomed. It was very quiet at night, so you will never be disturbed by anything other than the occasional owl. The gardens around the house, are welcoming with more than enough room to get the barbeque out whilst the children entertain themselves, so if you do need somewhere quiet, very homely, enough space for more than 6 people, and not a bad price, pick here you won't be disappointed.... Cheers

Rural Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Bowhouse. The farmhouse is in a great location for exploring Fife and the surrounding areas. It is very rural and extremely quiet, literally the only things you can hear are the birds and the horses. The farmhouse has plenty of room for 6 guests and bags of character. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to get away from it all

Idyllic farmhouse stay

We rented this accommodation as we were attending training. The house was a perfect place to relax after a hard days learning. The house is a great size laid over 3 floors. The scenery is beautiful and my favourite feature is the open fire. There is plentiful supply of logs and lovely touches were orange, milk, butter and bread being left to greet us. We will definitely be back when we come to refresh our training! Thanks for the great hospitality : )
