17th Century Dovecot, 20 min to Edinburgh by train

Welcome to our newly renovated dovecot located in a quiet residential area of Inverkeithing.

Our 17th Century Dovecot stands in what was formerly the orchard of Rosebery House; a home for a thousand doves.

A wonderful base for exploring Central Scotland with easy access to Edinburgh by train, car or bus.

Located off the M90; five minutes walk to the bus stop and eight minutes walk to train station.

Local shops/amenities within walking distance.

Clean, fun and well appointed property to stay in. Host has thought of everything. He was very responsive to our emails and gave clear instructions for check in and check out. Very quiet neighborhood. Nice to have onsite parking. Basic amenities a quick walk away. My only suggestion is to note in the listing that there are 3 levels. I knew there were stairs but I was thinking 2 levels. I have a bit of a mobility issue so although the winding stairs were a slight challenge, I embraced the challenge and it didn’t take away from my stay at all. It might be important for other folks to know that up front. Interesting to read the history of the property in the very detailed and appreciated welcome book. Would stay again if I’m ever back in Scotland and highly recommend to others looking for a unique place to stay.
