The East Neuk now benefits from a recently opened railway station at Leven and Edinburgh Airport is just over an hour from the property.St Monans appeared in the Daily Telegraph ‘Britain’s 30 best seaside villages’ list, and boasts 2 award winning seafood restaurants, and is a short walk to the popular gastro shops at Ardross Farm shop and Bowhouse. As a seafood centre there are naturally excellent fish shops whose choice and freshness cannot be beaten. The coastal path through Fife runs through St Monans between Elie and Pittenweem. On the route there are stunning beaches, and two tidal swimming pools.DESCRIPTION Planners House is an outstanding harbour front house constructed of rendered walls under a pitched pantile roof with crow step gables synonymous with East Neuk houses. The house is category B listed, dates from the 18th century and until the 1990s served as planning office for Millers Ship Yard, a legendary local boat constructor.

The architect was careful to retain features such as interior alcoves, which give a special charm to the rooms. Views across the Forth are unrivalled.
