Family home by the sea with easy links to Edinburgh

Our house is a Victorian mid-terrace with lovely sunny front rooms and sea views. It`s located in a quiet street overlooking the bowling green and tennis courts (you can use the courts as a visitor). We are just minutes from Kinghorn Harbour beach, which is clean and well used by families all year round. A second beach is 10 minutes walk away.
We have a comfortable and friendly home with plenty of toys and books if you`re travelling with a family. Two single bedrooms (one very large), one double bedroom, one spare room (has double sofa bed). Our eldest sleeps in the attic but this has a narrow steep stair so will not suit young children. Family bathroom plus separate toilet. Gardens at back and front. This is a fine location for a car-free swap, which would also appeal to us. Neighbours are friendly and helpful!
