Gateside at Faside Estate

Fa'side Castle overlooks the Firth of Forth and is approximately ten miles east of Edinburgh city centre.

A 17th century barn which sits to the north of the castle has been converted to form self catering accommodation with panoramic views. Gateside is a mid terraced barn conversion within the grounds of Fa'side Estate. The stone barn was previously used for agricultural storage before being converted in 1996. Within the shared grounds there is almost an acre of woodland a quarter of a century old and a small woodland pond. There is a shared barbecue area and picnic bench for enjoyable summer afternoons and evenings. The gardens are surrounded by a beech hedge and have a small orchard where you will often find our Black Rock chickens. There is ample parking space adjacent to the property.

The ground floor accommodation comprises a double and a twin bedroom with wardrobes and a family bathroom with bath and over bath shower. The floors throughout this level are of beautiful Mexican terracotta and reclaimed wood flooring is used on the upper level.

Upstairs is a large open plan living area with a kitchen comprising of electric cooker/hob; fridge; microwave; ample storage and all mod cons. There is also a washing machine with integral dryer. There is a dining table which seats 4, perfect for enjoying your evening meals.

The focal point of the living area is the full height window which boasts stunning panoramic views at all times of day and through all the seasons. From here you can see the Forth Rail Bridge, Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh, the coast of Fife and on a really clear day over to the Lomond Hills.
