Off Grid Travel at Cambo Estate

everything! outstanding

nothing

It was very cozy - even in the chill of January! It had everything we needed (even things we forgot at home), was very quiet and we were very impressed with all the thought that had gone into making the property as eco friendly as possible. We have now bought our own set of Dock & Bay towels too!

The sofa area could have a bit more cushioning, but it was still comfy

The Bothy was comfortable and clean. All the facilities were as described.

We were looking for seclusion. We knew this was an estate that others could walk around, but it is a shame that the path by the Bothy ran in front of it, rather than behind it. This somewhat dented the feeling of peaceful seclusion, especially when small children run up and bang on the door.

I liked all of it, brilliant, sustainable place. Easy access to the fife coastal path and Cambo Estate if that's your thing.

Cosy retreat within close reach of the beach and golf course. It was really well kitted out and the perfect place to shut off from the world for a few days.

A couple minor points for improvement would be additional matches and kindling for the fire. We didnt have enough matches for our stay and no axe to make kindling from the dry wood supplied. The welcome treat that was waiting for us was a nice touch but it would be better if this was vegan/GF and therefore suitable for anybody.

Beautiful location, lovely views. Accommodation was so great, beds were very comfortable. Kids loved it, as did the grown ups

The weather was terrible, wet and very windy. We really needed an outdoor area that was covered to use the gas barbecue. We couldn’t use the barbecue as the weather was so bad. This is crucial as there isn’t an oven. In Scotland, a sheltered area for cooking is surely a must???

The Bothy is a great place to relax away from a busy city and enjoy the Scottish countryside and Fife. There were a lot of lovely and thoughtful touches inside the property (like hot water bottles, a hammock and chairs, extra throws and blankets as it can get cold in Fife as well as portable lights and torches and even marshmallows to roast on the fire). Although the Bothy was quite small every inch of it was maximised by having a lot of clever storage spaces incorporated into the furniture. You can tell that most things inside the Bothy were bespoke, like the blinds and furniture, and a lot of thought and care was put into choosing them. What was also great was that we were offered the option to purchase a handmade hamper of local goods by the St Andrews Hamper Co that was delivered to the Bothy prior to our arrival. Overall, it was a great place to visit and we’ve had a lovely time there.

Although most of the below are not negatives about the property, there are some things you should be aware of prior to your visit: - You should note that the location of the Bothy is not accessible by car and there is some walking required to reach the location and you will need to pull all your luggage to the Bothy (there are a few wagons available in the parking area for you to use). Once you reach the location though it’s well worth it. - Be prepared for absolutely no service or WiFi. However, the company that operates the Bothy is called Off Grid Travel so that’s really to be expected! - It can get really cold in Fife (we visited in October).

The location and privacy was fantastic.
