Set on a working farm with Highland cattle roaming outside, this Fife farmhouse is a genuine rural escape – with Edinburgh reachable by train from nearby Kinghorn. You'll find it easy to relax and unwind with a clawfoot bathtub and a wood-burning stove crackling beside it. The kitchen is a pleasure to cook in, while the rose-hued dining nook gives mealtimes a charm that's hard to beat. A welcome basket of local bread, eggs, and artisan coffee is waiting on arrival.
