The Fife region

The historic Royal Burgh of Kinghorn lies on the golden coastline of the Kingdom of Fife. Its picturesque sheltered bay and beach nestles below the hillsides of the town.

This and the surrounding areas are steeped in history. The seaside town, with its many attractive 17th and 18th century buildings is nestled along the spectacular Fife Coastal Trail 20 miles from Edinburgh and St Andrews.

The fishing villages along the coast of Fife, known locally as the East Neuk can be explored on foot or by bike and are a great day out.

The Kinghorn area

There are numerous relaxing and energetic activities on offer in the local area. Golfers are well catered for with the local course just across the road and over 20 other 18 hole courses in the area. St Andrews, the home of golf is 20 miles away making this apartment ideally located as a fantastic base.
There are plenty of activities to entertain families, whatever the weather, with an eco farm, deep sea world, bird sanctuary, nature trails, outdoor tennis courts and bowling and indoor leisure facilities all in the immediate locale. The beautiful golden sandy beaches are within walking distance. Other activities include horse-riding, swimming, canoeing, sailing, fishing, walking, off road and road cycling. Boat trips to the islands in the river forth are also available.

The nearby, magnificent pettycur beach is ideal for windsurfing, kite surfing and when the tide is out, a fantastic 3 mile walk.

Within a short drive there are festivals such as the Pittenweem Arts Festival and Falkland Festival. The Edinburgh International Festival is a 30 minute scenic train journey right into the heart of the city (no parking dramas) over the Forth Rail Bridge and the music festival; T in the park is a half hour drive away.

There are cinema and theatre options also available locally.

“Loathe to leave” Apartment so comfortable our group were hesitant to go out during our visit to Kinghorn. Owner provided nice touch with her welcome pack, also lots of useful 'tourist' information within apartment for immediate and surrounding area.

“Quality Apartment” I was nervous about going for an apartment, especially after holidaying in detached cottages for the last 3 or 4 years......but I needn't had worried. The apartment was spacious, and very well equiped with tasteful, good quality items. If I were going to be fussy, I'd say that I missed a garden for our 11 year old to play in, but I knew this when I booked back in January, so no surprises there. We have family living in nearby Inverkeithing, and with the trains running regularly and the station being only 5 minutes walk away, I found it ideal (and relaxing) to travel further up along the coast or into Edinburgh if you fancied somewhere more lively. I'd definetly recommend the apartment to friends and family.

“Beautifully finished, well equipped apartment in great location” The apartment fixtures, fittings and furnishing were all of a very high standard. The owner/manager had thought of everything, we didn't have that feeling of "oh we should have brought this or that", everything we needed was provided. We had clear instructions and details of everything in the apartment and lots of leaflets and info about things to do and see in the area - including rail timetables - which was very helpful. As mentioned in the visitors book, we have stayed in many cottages, converted barns, converted mills and city apartments throughout the years and this was definitely one of our best experiences. The coastal region of Fife was such a nice surprise too - it was beautiful!

“Luxurious 5* accomodation” We found inchview apartment top notch in every respect. From the comfort of the lounge to the fully fitted kitchen, stylish bathroom and well appointed bedrooms, the apartment gave us a very comfortable stay throughout the week. We look forward to coming back again and again. A must "to do" is to visit Anstruther for the famous fish and chips.

“Great apartment with excellent facilities located in a perfect location to explore Fife, Edinburgh or further afield” Inchview apartment is a fantastic holiday home located in a great spot with good road and rail links. The aprtment itself is modern, beautifully furnished and very child friendly. We loved it so much we have been there twice! The beach is a short walk away or you can get in the car to explore other beaches or attractions. Edinburgh is a short rail ride away too. Lovely welcome and we had a great stay!!

“Lovely, clean and airy apartment by the sea!!” We visited the apartment for a long weekend and had a brilliant stay. The apartment is immaculate and furnished to a very high standard. The owner has supplied it with everything youneed and provided nice touches like a welcome basket. It is very well stocked with the essentials like tea, coffee, washing powder too.. It's a great area to explore, big beaches for long walks and the east neuk villages/st andrews for art and tasty meals out. Am looking forward to going back later in the year!
