Pittenweem

We stayed in Pittenweem. It's a beautiful village. Rather than try to describe it, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

We start up on the headland where the skate park was. We came here frequently, especially in the evenings - the children would play with new friends also here on holiday while I was very happy to admire the view. I took so many photos from here, this is just a small selection. The light was different each time...

Next we wander round the harbour. There was lots to see here too. Again, the different light adds to the interest.

Now a closer look at some of the houses. Which would you choose?

The blue cottage here was the one we stayed in...

...and this is a zoomed in view from the bedroom window. The big doggie from the little white cottage loved lying out on the path all day.

Now to the beach. We spent a gorgeous afternoon just pottering about in the sunshine. There was so much sea glass I didn't bother collecting any as it didn't seem precious somehow. Instead I used it to make some pictures on the sand. They were soon washed away by the incoming tide.

We often passed St Fillan's cave on the way down into the village. N was very keen to get inside, so we got the keys from the chocolate shop and in we went...

 It was bigger inside than I expected.

Now to some little street details and larger views. This first fellow sits outside the cave...

Yummy ice cream from the ice cream shop. One blue marshmallow, two strawberries and one rum & raisin.

Of all the villages we visited Pittenweem was our favourite and we were very glad that's where we'd ended up staying. We all agreed this wouldn't be our last visit...
