    The Spindrift
    "The Spindrift" is an imposing, stone-built Victorian home with many original internal features carefully restored.

    Set in the picturesque fishing village of Anstruther, in the East Neuk of Fife, "The Spindrift" is just 10 minutes from St Andrews with its world famous golf courses, excellent beaches and a multitude of independently owned shops.

    You will be a pampered guest in the friendly and relaxed atmosphere of the elegantly furnished public rooms, where you can sit and have a pre-dinner drink while selecting the dishes of your choice from our menu, which is changed daily. We also have a selection of fine wines to complement your meal.

    A unique feature of the house is the Captain's room on the top floor. This was the special domain of the original owner of the house, a Tea Clipper Captain called John Smith, who made the room a replica of a ship master's cabin, with its small east facing window looking towards Anstruther, where he could see the tea clippers and the fishing fleet in the harbour.Now centrally heated (like the rest of the house) and with its own private bathroom.

    It has been said that "the Captain's ghost" has been seen in the lounge and on the stairs by guests (but not in recent times). He is said to be extremely friendly and enjoys listening in on conversations !!

    The Captain's Room is especially popular with couples of all ages, providing attractive, comfortable and we hope particularly memorable accommodation.
