The restaurant being closed for the duration of our stay.

The decor, the facilities, the in room treats.

Stayed in August 2025

No staff on site overnight. Given several numbers to call in an emergency overnight. Can see there is no space for staff to stay overnight but there should be a designated person on call via a single telephone number. There is no time to try different telephone numbers in an emergency.

All fab, really.

Staff are helpful and responsive to any questions tnat you have before and during your stay. We stayed in room 1 - decorated and finished to an extremely high standard and, thanks to the wondefful housekeeper, Jean, immaculate. The interiors are stylish and of superb quality. Our room was well stocked with coffee pods, fresh milk, water, and two gins as well as some local tablet! A lovely touch. Lux bathroom. Breakfast was divine, and service wonderful. They accommodated unusual dietary requests (how much does a slice of your sourdough weigh!) without batting an eye. Well situated on the main road, which despite being the main street is quiet. Some parking is available to the rear. Quick drive to other coastal towns. The bar had a live music event on - and soundproofing in the rooms is excellent so even if you don't fancy it, you won't be bothered The beach is just a two minute walk away. Can't rate the hotel highly enough. I will definitely be back

Everything about this hotel is fabulous. David went above and beyond to make everything perfect. From home macaroons to the Gin and tonics in our room on our arrival. Even a bucket of ice. The dinner (please book early) outstanding and the breakfasts were WOW.

There were so many things that we were impressed with. Upon arrival the room had fresh milk in the fridge (not UHT pots) and macaroons to go with tea/coffee. There were complimentary gin and tonics left together with an ice bucket full of ice. You could get lost in the huge fluffy bath towels. The breakfast was incredible, both delicious and generous (and so was our dinner). The staff were attentive and helpful. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay and will definitely return.

Can honestly say NOTHING! There was simply nothing we did not like and we stayed two nights, maybe that is what we did not like…we should have stayed more!!!!

Do not know where to start…The Shoregate is simply above and beyond from the welcome to the goodbye. The food is just incredible, think Michelin star, the service amazing, cleanliness, atmosphere, helpfulness, friendliness, peaceful. To be honest it is as perfect as one could aim for. We will certainly be back, if we can get in, as we are sure the word is out!!!

Clearer parking instructions. It would have been nice to have a small seat or stool to put toiletries or clothes on in the bathroom and a way to keep the window open at night. It was warm while we visited and the room got stuffy at night.

Loved our stay. The welcome G&T and Maroons were a nice touch. Dinner and breakfast were both wonderful. Wish we could have stayed longer than one night. A real gem!

I hate decorative pillows because rarely do they get washed in between guest stays, although they work amazing from the aesthetic POV, and there were plenty on my bed. Just a small thing I am not a fan of.

The Shoregate is a wonderful independent hotel in Crail. It is run by a team that is committed to very high standards and has everything that is needed to provide guests with a relaxing stay. The team assisted me with tips ahead of my trip, and I also reserved dinner at the restaurant which was delicious.

The only thing that might have made it better would have been more fish on the menu.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Our room was extremely comfortable and the shower exceptional. A very nice touch were all the complimentary goodies. The food was excellent though some of the portions a bit large for us but then we don't have enormous appetites. It was very quiet despite being in the middle of the village. A short stroll down to the harbour and round the castle walk is very pleasant especially as we had fabulous weather while there. Would highly recommend.

This was an online booking by chance and what a lucky find it was. Beautiful room with excellent facilities and caring staff. Food is exceptional.

Only issue which was annoying was we heard a door on our floor banging when someone had been leaving the room or place on our floor. Needs to be closed quietly and considerately.

Lovely room, comfortable bed. Food excellent .Staffs desire to please. Nothing was a problem . Would definitely return. Gem of a place. Trip advisor advised.

Nothing. It is superb.

It is a beautifully appointed boutique hotel with no minor detail overlooked. The room was beautiful, the food was absolutely exceptional and the staff were fantastic. I cannot recommend this place enough.
