Location
Located within a 5-minute drive of Crail Harbour Fishing Pier, the 3-star Balcomie Links Hotel Anstruther is nearly a 5-minute walk from Crail Parish Church. The hotel offers Wi-Fi in public areas and a car park on site.
Situated around 15 minutes' drive from Scotland's Secret Bunker, the accommodation also gives access to such sports venues as Kingsbarns Golf Links, which is a 10-minute drive away. Stables is about 10 minutes by car from this Anstruther hotel and Dundee airport is 45 km away. The property is also within close distance of St Andrews Bay. The nearby notable religious buildings include Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Church, just a short stroll from Balcomie Links Hotel. The nearest bus stop is Bowling Green Place, located only a 10-minute stroll away.
The rooms overlook the sea and feature a flat-screen TV with satellite channels along with tea and coffee making facilities. Also, they feature parquetry flooring.
The Balcomie Links Anstruther serves a full English breakfast in the morning. The terrace bar is ideal for a relaxing drink.
Review by hotel critic
The room was updated and clean, boasting a spacious feel and a lovely sea view. It felt sparse, with minimal furnishings—a single dining chair and no armchair. I even had to request towels upon arrival. The restaurant and bar staff were friendly, making our time enjoyable despite the hotel's shortcomings. Breakfast choices were decent, and the location was great for those heading to Crail Raceway. While Balcomie Links is a stunning property with potential, it currently carries luxury pricing but misses the mark on practicality. If the management addresses these issues, it could become a solid option for anyone looking to explore this lovely area. As a Canadian traveler, I'd suggest considering both comfort and cost here.
