The master bedroom has two windows overlooking the sea, and two windows overlooking Castle Terrace. It boasts an extremely comfy super-king bed. The second bedroom has 2 twin beds and overlooks the picturesque stepped gables of Castle Terrace. Open the windows at night and you’ll hear the waves on the shore as you drift off… The bathroom has a P-shaped bath and a state of the art Grohe Rainshower system. Our bedding is pure Egyptian cotton from The White Company and organic, fairtrade unbleached cotton from Nour Luxury. Soap, shampoo and bubbles from Arran Aromatics are provided in the bathroom, together with White Company towels. Downstairs, the living-room opens onto the dining area and kitchen. We take pride in our well-stocked kitchen with everything you need to indulge in some holiday baking, and such extras as a slow cooker, and a Nespresso machine but also cafetières and milk frother for those who prefer to make their brew the old-fashioned way. There is a Weber BBQ in the garden. In the living-room you will find a digital TV, a CD player with Bluetooth (rather old-fashioned to have a CD player still, but we like it), and a Bose Sound Dock. Broadband wifi is provided and the cottage has its own small library of DVDs and books. We think it is important that you feel welcome as soon as you step in the door. In all seasons of the year, the wood-burning stove will be laid ready for your arrival, and you will find fresh flowers (from the garden in summer) and a basket of delicious Scottish goodies plus a bottle of wine from our local wine merchant. There is a secluded small garden behind the cottage. At the bottom you will find a terrace perched above the rooftops overlooking the Firth of Forth and on to the Isle of May. Perfect for sea and star gazing…. There is also a side garden with terraced flower beds and we've let the hedge at the front of the cottage grow a bit higher so you can sit on the bench out here in the morning unobserved by passers-by, watching the sun sparkle on the sea, while you enjoy your coffee, . Perfect for a coastal summer break, the cottage also offers real cosiness in the winter. When the seas are wild, snuggling up to the wood-burning stove with a hot chocolate or something stronger is sheer bliss. Nestled on the sofa, you can look through the French doors to the garden and the sea under the cliff beyond. Whether you are planning a romantic long weekend or some quality time with the family, the peace and seclusion of 21 Shoregate offers a respite from busy lives. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet -
