Cottage Fife Largo Beach

We have two cottages in Fife by Largo Beach. The beach stretches for miles north to Elie and beyond and south to Leven. Largo situated at the mouth of the River Keil on the Firth of Forth is an attractive holiday Village. It is an ideal base for touring Fife and the East Coast Villages of the East Neuk.
Lower Largo grew as a herring fishing village and later as a manufacturer of fishing nets. Today, many fishing and pleasure boats can still be found in the harbour.
