9 East Bay B&B

Overlooking The Firth of Forth we have uninterrupted views from our lounge or outside deck towards Edinburgh and the coastlines of Lothian and Fife, then on further to The North Sea.

During the summer the QE2 & other large cruise ships are berthed outside our home & many cruise ships and sailing boats pass by.

9 East Bay B&B is a one story comfortable and cosy bungalow. It is a wonderful place to stay and the views are quite magnificent.

Our quality Scottish Bed and Breakfast accommodation is ideally situated for visiting Fife, St. Andrews, Perth and Kinross, Glasgow and Edinburgh.
