Valutazione generale
Pros:

La posizione, la camera, l'accoglienza.

Cons:

Poche alternative alimentari. Per gli italiani è più difficile adattarsi al cibo scozzese.

Pros:

Location was great -- just a block off the beach and an easy walk to Burnt Island itself (at low tide!). Food was delicious, both supper and breakfast. Staff was helpful. We walked from the train station, perhaps a half mile, and enjoyed walking through the summer fair.

We loved it and will definitely stay again in the future.
Pros:

The staff were lovely and allowed is to check in early. The twin room was very comfortable. It is a one minute walk to the beach and only five away from the Burntisland Fair and Highland Games area. We loved it.

Cons:

There was an odd noise every time we ran the bathroom tap or flushed the toilet but not enough of an issue to not book a stay here.
