Ask a questionAbout Mrs.Yvonne Barley
We are a married couple and have lived here since 1972. We are keen for you to have a good holiday and will go out of our way to help. We enjoy improving and maintaining our cottage and woodland. Look us up on the internet for more local area information:- on our holiday-cottage-edinburgh blog. We have 47 years of local knowledge for you to benefit from.
Mrs.Yvonne Barley purchased this Cottage in 1998
Why Mrs.Yvonne Barley chose Dunfermline
They are unique, 100+ year old sandstone farm cottages, comfortable and characterful. A perfect holiday base, close to Edinburgh and many other historic cities, 1 mile from the nearest town of Inverkeithing. 3 miles to Dunfermline. Family friendly. Lots of thoughtful touches..
What makes this Cottage unique
15 acres of woodland. Garden room with log burning stove. Garden with covered fire pit area. We know the area well and leave lots of helpful local information. We are on 24 hour call if help or advice is called for. We love our cottages and woodland and enjoy having happy holidaymakers. Not run of the mill, not buy to let. Some original features, some hand built features such as solid wood kitchen surfaces. View of 3 historic Forth bridges. Cosy calthermic heating, installed November 2018. We ask that you leave the cottage tidy, as you found it on arrival, thanks. December 2019 Restoration to original sandstone exterior.
