Local Area

Culross is found on the north bank of the Forth bay within the Kingdom of Fife

and is steeped in history being a seventeenth century royal burgh. Originally a

port city on the Firth of Forth, the town includes many historic buildings such

as the mediaeval Abbey with its 12th century ruins and the 16th century ‘Palace’

– the National Trust’s first ever property. The ‘Little Houses of Culross’

themselves are a unique group of rescued mediaeval properties.

There is easy access to the Kincardine Bridge with its links to the M8 and M9

motorways providing links to Glasgow and Stirling and the Queensferry

Crossing providing access to Edinburgh. The village is approximately 8 miles

from the town of Dunfermline which provides all the amenities of a sizeable

town including supermarkets, shops and schooling.

Please Note

Various sections of the historic boundary walls adjoining the property are

maintained by Historic Scotland, as is one of the outbuildings. Historic Scotland

retains rights of access to these areas. Parts of the garden grounds are a

scheduled monument.

Part of the property has in the past been used as a ‘Tea Room’ but this function

has been discontinued and will now be run from the Church.
