Anstruther (3mls E), Central Scotland with hottub, sleeps 10, 4 dogs

This stunning family home is set on a 400-acre farm in rural Scotland. The area is teeming with walking routes, including the long-distance Fife Pilgrim Way (10 miles away). The wee fishing village of Anstruther is 2.5 miles away and the home of golf - St Andrews - is just 10.5 miles from the property.

Sleeping ten guests and three canine chums, the farmhouse is ideal for large get-togethers. The games room provides hours of entertainment, and the luxurious hot tub is the perfect way to round off a busy day. The luxurious farmhouse has a unique sense of style, with period features and elegant fabrics sitting alongside quirky artwork and contemporary furniture.

Large rooms and high ceilings provide fabulous social spaces, and many of the windows frame picture-postcard rural views. The roaring wood burners create a lovely cosy atmosphere during the winter. Before stepping into the beautiful building, take a moment to look around and absorb your spectacular surroundings.

Once inside, discover a beautiful hallway, leading to the lounge. This stylish space has luxurious velvet sofas to recline on to watch the SkyTV, and quiet corners to curl up with a good book. From here, wander into the games room.

This is the perfect place to spend quality time together, playing pool or enjoying a game of table tennis. There’s also another SkyTV, which is great if you can’t agree on what to watch. Rustle up delicious meals in the sleek kitchen, to enjoy at the magnificent dining table in the formal dining room.

There’s also a pretty dining table next to the window in the kitchen, where you can sip a morning coffee or enjoy a light bite. A handy wet room completes the ground floor. On the first floor, you’ll find the five gorgeous bedrooms.

Each is a super-king-size, which can be made up as a twin on request, and all boast views across open countryside. One of the bedrooms is an en-suite, and there’s also a family bathroom with a luxurious roll-top bath. Outside, a bonnie garden awaits.

Laid to lawn, with a collection of mature trees and shrubs, it’s a great place for children and pups to play. The cobbled patio is a real sun trap, where you can unwind with a glass of wine, share al fresco meals, and soak in the private hot tub. There is ample off-road parking available at the property.
