Description

Originally built in 1892 by James Bisset, this attractive top floor apartment sits in a striking period building in the heart of the picturesque village of Gullane on the East Lothian coast. Not one, but three championship golf courses sit nearby, including Muirfield, one of the oldest clubs in golf and world renowned for greens which will challenge and delight in equal measure.

For those seeking a slightly more sedate pace, the apartment is perfectly placed for walking and enjoying the tranquility of the area’s nature reserves along this stunning stretch of coastline.

Gullane Bents is an easy ten minute walk leading down to a fabulous horseshoe curve of wide golden sands leading all the way down to North Berwick. Add some award-winning restaurants to the mix serving the very best of fresh local produce, and guests here have a rather perfect holiday combination.

The apartment sits on the upper floor with a bright contemporary open plan living space punctuated by lovely pops of colour and views over the rooftops. The kitchen is well equipped with all the main essentials, with a dining space for four and a breakfast bar for those looking for easy holiday catering.

The bedroom can be configured to twin beds or a super king offering complete flexibility, leading into a small dressing room area and a separate bathroom.

Outside there is a communal garden area with plenty of amenities and dining options all within a few minute’s walk.

Just 45 minutes from Edinburgh, it's a perfect weekend destination with easy train and road links meaning you can make that transition from work to Friday relaxation in no time!

Location

In Gullane, you can find La Potinière for fine dining, or Tom Kitchin's restaurant 'The Bonnie Badger', a fabulous 5 star AA restaurant using locally sourced produce with artisan beers and wines. Gullane also benefits from The Main Course, a family run Italian restaurant and The Old Clubhouse, originally the clubhouse of Gullane golf club now offering a varied menu.

There is also a Co-op supermarket on the Main Street in Gullane with larger supermarkets nearby in North Berwick (4.5 miles).

North Berwick offers plenty of quality independent traders and fresh, local producers. There are two small supermarkets with a good selection of provisions, along with a butchers shop, fishmonger and bakery. There's also a large Tesco approximately a mile away which will do home delivery.

There are plenty of places for eating out with everything from sweet cafes and ice cream parlours mixed with characterful restaurants and bars ranging from the small and intimate dining experience of Osteria; regional dishes and cocktails at The Herringbone; or the distinctly rustic outdoor experience of the Lobster Shack!

Alternatively for a comfy nook and a perfectly roasted espresso head to The Steampunk Coffee House based in an old characterful warehouse in the centre of the town. And did we mention cakes? You can enjoy a scrumptious selection here including a rather heavenly pistachio and white chocolate brownie!

Hourly trains run from Drem (4 miles) and can take you into central Edinburgh in less than 30 minutes.
