1 Bed Cottage in North Queensferry

About this property

For a bonnie holiday in the historic coastal town of Inverkeithing, stay at this charming one-bedroom cottage just 0.5 miles from the town centre and beach. It's tucked away on a quiet lane beside leafy Ballast Bank Park (500 metres), providing a peaceful spot for a solo trip or a couple's holiday.

Once home to a ropemaker, this quirky reverse-level home has been stylishly updated to create a warm and inviting space for one or two guests - expect thoughtful design touches, plenty of wood and stylish furnishings. The most impressive feature is at the top of the house, where the arched ceiling is supported by dramatic A-frame beams salvaged from a ship.

On the ground floor is a well-appointed double bedroom alongside a pretty shower room where you can refresh after a day of exploring. A handy utility room provides extra convenience along with a plush sofa, so you can relax here with a book if you so wish.

The first floor is home to a striking open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area with clean white walls, a wooden floor and a lovely, vaulted ceiling interspersed with windows allowing the light to stream in. Prepare a romantic meal in the well-equipped kitchen, which features a characterful apron sink, and enjoy views of the park from the round dining table as you eat. To relax before bed, settle on the sofa and watch a film on the Smart TV, whilst the flame-effect gas fire and ambient lighting add to the cosy atmosphere.

Outside, you'll have a patio area perfect for morning tea or an evening drink, plus secure storage for outdoor gear. On-street parking is available within 50 metres of the cottage.
