The connected villages of Elie and Earlsferry are popular holiday destinations due to the unspoilt sandy beaches, accessible golf courses and range of water sports available. Whilst situated on the beach, The Old Bake House is just a short walk from Earlsferry High Street, and ideally positioned for access to Elie Golf Course and the shops, cafés and restaurants of Elie.

Sailing, wind surfing and other water sports are available at Elie Harbour and there are two golf courses, one the acclaimed 18 hole course and a short 9 hole course suitable for beginners. There are also golf practice facilities, several hard tennis courts and a bowling green. Elie Sports Club offers group and individual coaching in golf and tennis during school holidays. Elie is well served by pubs and cafés including the renowned Ship Inn, and the historic 19th Hole tavern and restaurant in Earlsferry.

St Andrews, ‘the home of golf‘ and the setting for one of Britain’s oldest universities, is only 13 miles away. There are traditional links golf courses at nearby Crail, Leven and Lundin Links and new courses at Kingsbarns and St Andrews Bay. St Andrews has an excellent selection of shops, restaurants and services to supplement those available in the village.

Description Thanks to its superb beachfront setting, The Old Bake House offers one of coastal Scotland’s most spectacular and desirable outlooks, with picturesque and undisturbed views over Elie and Earlsferry beaches, and across the Firth of Forth towards East Lothian. The original “Bake House” which once supplied the local bakeries was built on this site in about the 1850s, and was re- built as a dwelling house in the late 1940s. The house has recently been fully re-designed, extended and renovated, led by architects Robin Hopkins and Gillespie & Scott, and was completed in 2020.
