The East Lodge is a charming property on Balcarres Estate in the East Neuk of Fife, conveniently located an hour’s drive from Edinburgh. This exceptional detached lodge, complete with modern furnishings and refined interiors, comprises two comfortable bedrooms, one modern bathroom, a cosy living room, a well-equipped kitchen, an impressive dining area, and a private cottage garden. With a terrace looking onto a wildflower meadow, you can enjoy the fresh Scottish air and the beautiful surroundings while warming your toes by the firepit. Other things to note: Pets We warmly welcome up to two dogs at the East Lodge; however, please note there will be a charge of 25 GBP per dog to cover extra cleaning costs. Please note that there may be small apertures through the enclosed garden and some smaller pets may be able to go through the gaps in the fence. Although the house is detached and on private land, we still ask that you please respect the surrounding area and keep noise levels to a minimum between the hours of 10pm and 9am

Discover the charming fishing villages that dot the coastline of the East Neuk, such as Elie, St Monans, Crail, Pittenweem, Kingsbarns, and Anstruther, where you can enjoy a beautiful (although perhaps blustery!) beach walk. If you venture towards Elie, you can also explore the iconic lighthouse and ancient Lady’s Tower on the edge of town – or, if you are feeling particularly courageous, try your hand at some invigorating water sports or the Elie Chain Walk. A unique feature of the Fife Coastal Path, the chain walk offers the brave explorers among us the chance to scramble along chains built into a section of the cliffs towards Kincraig Point and Shell Bay. If you’re seeking cultural stimulation, you can take a short drive to the medieval town of St Andrews, the seat of Scotland’s oldest university and site of romantic castle and cathedral ruins, as well as museums, independent retailers, and stunning architecture. If you’re looking to learn more about Scotland’s renowned gin and whiskey production, many local distilleries offer tours, such as Eden Mill and Kingsbarns.
