This house is built on the grounds of the old Cupar castle hence the name Castlehill. The Earl of Fife (McDuff) and his wife and children were the residents of the castle. From some of the room windows you can see the Castles surrounding walls. Cupar was once famous for making sugar and had it's own railway taking sugar beats from the farm. The old stilo still stands on the site. We are situated next to The Corn Echange which used to be bustling with farmers selling their corn. Now it is used for weddings and other special functions. Brae Cottage is a Victorian house built in 1897 and has many of its original features. The rooms are large for a B'n'B and all have bathrooms.
