From the owner

A beautiful beach location over looking the Firth of Forth and Edinburgh

The Cottage is ideally located in the holiday seaside town of Burntisland with a long history as a summer holiday destination. The award winning beach is located to just meters away from the property overlooking the Firth of Forth and across to the City of Edinburgh with it's famous festivals and Tattoo. It's a constant moving picture, with a variety of sea bird, merchant ships of all sizes and cruise ships.

It is perfect for relaxing, being close to the sea, walking the Fife Coastal way, sea fishing from the wall and exploring the many rock pools with the children within view of the terrace. There is a modern indoor pool within walking distance at the Leisure Centre, the links park has a perfect play park all within safe walking distance and well away from the cars.

Burntisland is an excellent destination for all with a traditional high street with a good butcher, fish monger, ice cream parlour and a variety of cafes.

The summer includes a fairground in July and Lifeguards patrol the beach during the peak summer season. (Don't forget booking the Edinburgh Tattoo)

The accommodation consists of a comfortable lounge with a door which leads out to an undercover veranda and faces south, which is ideal for having your breakfast or sundowner drinks in the evening., a twin master bedroom downstairs and a twin balcony room accessed by a spiral staircase with restrictive headroom, but with good views from the large sized velds windows.

There is parking for two cars (height restriction due to railway tunnel prevents large roof racks) to the private property.

Easy walking to the Sands Hotel just approximately 2 minutes away.

The cottage is ideal for Golfers who want to play the courses in the Kingdom of Fife, known as the 'home of Golf'. Look up the Fife Passport which is great value.

We are more than happy to accept a dog as the Fife Coastal Walk runs along the side of the Cottage, perfect access to walk the dog to the beach and the town. Fife Council declare that the beach is safe and clean.

Burntisland high street is an easy eight minute flat walk, where there is a good selection of village shops, two small supermarkets, post office and Banks.

The location is ideal to visit the famous City of Edinburgh either by Train, Bus or Car with all the delights of the Scottish Capital at your disposal.

Response from the owner
Oh thank you for this, I am very pleased you had an enjoyable stay with us, it does help though when you had some nice days in the middle of February and although it was cold you got a chance to sit out and enjoy the views. We would very much like you to stay again. Many thanks; Cliff

Response from the owner
I am delighted to announce we have gone through a major change with a new cleaning company. There are many houses that are near wthe railway line however I do not consider this to be a major issue as we have been renting the cottage successfully over the past 14 years with a hand full of regulars who come every year. I take on board the galley facilities and a new couch is imminent.Thank you for your comments.
