Unique 2 Bedroom Harbour Front Apartment

Newly refurbished apartment on harbour front. Part of a former inn this property has a unique charm all of its own. This apartment has been fully refurbished to a high standard. It’s cosy and extremely comfortable. Easy walking distance to beaches, high street shopping, pubs, restaurants and local amenities. Short drive to the John Muir country park and the other beaches in East Lothian. An ideal base to explore the area. Edinburgh is only a 20 minute train journey to the city centre.
The property benefits from unlimited free internet access. We have just installed super fast fibre optic internet which is brilliant for all your online needs.
Parking is on street adjacent to the apartment and in bays on the harbour side which is literally 30 metres from the front door. All parking next to the apartment and indeed throughout Dunbar is free.
Throughout the pandemic we have refunded everyone in full who has had to cancel due to COVID restrictions and will continue to do so.
Since the start of the pandemic we have introduced advanced cleaning procedures and have extended the gaps between departures and arrivals to accommodate this. Our short term holiday let is licensed under the new legislation. License number EL00051F.

Amazing trip to Dunbar
The apartment was exactly as described. It felt like home from the first moment we arrived. The location is incredible, right on the harbour and within a short walk to the town and shops. Morag is an excellent host who helped our trip to go very smoothly. We can’t wait to come back ! Jackie and Todd.

Wonderful apartment in a great location
The apartment is warm, cosy, quiet and in an ideal location - just walk over the road and the sea is there, while the shops on the high street are just a short walk in the opposite direction. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need and the bed is very comfortable. The only minor drawback is that there are no windows facing the seafront, but that’s all.

Lovely house, great location, weirdness with neighbors
Dunbar is a lovely harbor town that is perfect for exploring the John Muir way and beyond. The rental itself is perfect for two people, perhaps a stretch for more. We were a little alarmed when we received a message from the owner re: the downstairs neighbors to the effect that we should not use the washer after 5 p.m. It appears that the neighbors don't really care for the renters. Yikes! I don't want conflict on vacation. We walked in stocking feet as softly as we could so as not to ire them. Did we succeed? I'm not really sure because they always look a little grumpy. Despite this weirdness, we enjoyed our stay.

Great stay😊
Wonderful stay. We loved staying within steps of the active harbor! Something always going on! Even a nice ceremony which included bagpipes for the 65th anniversary of the Sea Cadets. Everything was clean, comfortable. All the appliances worked fine. Convenient for doing our own cooking and laundry. The busy, main street of Dunbar was just a short walk up the hill. Getting to Edinburgh was a quick 25 minute train ride. Would definitely recommend this rental apartment.

Superb location and authentic
The apartment had everything we needed. After a day of adventuring you could count on a terrific sleep as the beds were so comfortable. As it states, a unique apartment on the harbor. Out the front in the morning a lovely coffee stand while you watch the boats and birds. Very relaxing accommodations.

Perfect stay for a family gathering
A lovely spacious apartment. Well equipped and comfortable. Such a fabulous location. Close to the sea and beaches. Very close to bus connections and the station. Quiet at all times. We saw seals in the harbour and dolphins off the coast. We swam too it was sunny and warm. We would thoroughly recommend staying here

FABULOUS
We were very happy that Morags property was available for the dates required and would ABSOLUTELY choose it again. We chose it based initially off location as we're very familiar with the area. You are able to watch both sunrise and sunset as you step out the property onto the busy working harbour. Kittiwake cafe is available for morning coffees and snacks etc which is super handy. Bissets fresh caught seafood is open seasonally and just steps away on your doorstep. Interior wise it was also a winner. Morags property is homely, spotlessly clean, both tastefully decorated and furnished, up to date esthetically and still manages to show off some obvious historical architecturel history within. The beds are comfy with fresh white linen, large clean towels were also on hand. The heating is on a modern nest system and VERY easy to navigate if required. 1 very beautiful and extremely friendly local kitty will happily explore your accomodation so don't leave the main door open and unattended while unloading luggage lol. The bathroom light tended to be somewhat temperemental. I would also maybe suggest some basic tea and coffee condiments to tie guests over after travels and arrival. Many thanks for a comfortable home from home Morag.

Cosy Aprtment
This was our second stay in this lovely apartment in Dunbar. It’s in a lovely spot very close to the Harbour just a stones throw away from lovely sea views. The aprtment itself is lovely - very cosy and warm with comfortable beds. The area is very peaceful but also loads to see and do in the surrounding area. We will definitely be back

Warm and comfortable cottage
Warm and comfortable cottage right by the harbour. Visitors should be aware that there is a flight of stairs to reach the cottage and another flight internally to reach the bedrooms. Compact kitchen has everything necessary for your stay and the sitting room is comfortable. Bed is very comfortable. Conveniently located for local walks, the high street shops (excellent butchers!) and exploring further afield.
