This is a rural area where it will be easier to get around by car. There is a bus service from very close to the cottage, with links to Leven and Anstruther. There are train stations at Leuchars and Markinch, both about 25 minutes away by car. There is free parking at both stations and travelling by train is the best way to have a day out in Edinburgh as parking in the city is not easy.

There is free on street parking just outside the cottage in Colinsburgh.
